Choosing Your Colors
When it comes to giraffes, their long necks and beautiful patterns make them stand out in the savanna. For a realistic look, you’ll want to start with shades of brown and tan for their bodies, and don't forget those iconic spots! A soft yellow or orange can add a nice touch to their fur.
For the cartoon giraffes, you can get a bit more creative! Maybe try some fun colors like pink, purple, or even rainbow stripes. Let your imagination run wild!
When I colored mine, I used earthy tones for the realistic giraffe, making sure to add lots of spots. For the cartoon giraffe, I went with a funky mix of purple and blue – it turned out super fun!
What to Use for Coloring
You can use anything you like for coloring these giraffes. Here are a few ideas:
- Crayons: Perfect for younger kids because they are easy to hold and come in lots of colors.
- Markers: Great for bold, vibrant colors. Just be careful not to color outside the lines!
- Colored Pencils: These are awesome for shading and adding details, especially for the intricate patterns on giraffes.
I used markers for the realistic giraffe to get those spots just right and colored pencils for the cartoon giraffe to add some depth to its funky colors!
