WHIP TAIL DIPLODOCUS #7
A smoking volcano rises in the background of this scene, its cone releasing a soft puff behind a cluster of palm trees. In front of it stands a diplodocus, neck stretched straight up, head turned in profile with a small smiling mouth. Its back carries a pattern of oval spots, one larger mark near the shoulders and smaller ones trailing down the flank and along the tail, which curves upward and coils into a loop near the tip. Two rocks sit at the base of spiky grass clumps placed on either side of the foreground. The dinosaur's body is drawn with clean, open outlines that leave large spaces to fill, while the palm fronds break into many small pointed leaflets that take more time and a steadier hand. The spotted markings give clearly separated shapes, useful for switching between two colors on the same body. This printable page suits younger children on the main shape, with an adult or older sibling better suited to the palms and volcano smoke. Plan for about twenty minutes on the simple areas alone. Filling the back and legs first, before moving to the palm leaves, keeps the page from feeling overwhelming halfway through. This dino coloring page works well as a starting point for a jungle-themed set, since the volcano and palms give it a distinct backdrop. Print it on A4 paper at 160gsm or higher so felt-tip pens don't bleed through.
