What to Use for Coloring
First things first, let’s talk about what you can use to color your Panthers:
- Crayons: Perfect for younger kids, crayons are easy to handle and come in lots of colors.
- Colored Pencils: Great for adding detail and blending colors. They’re my personal favorite for getting those realistic fur textures.
- Markers: If you want vibrant and bold colors, markers are the way to go. Just be careful not to press too hard to avoid bleeding through the paper.
- Watercolors: For a soft and blended look, watercolors are fantastic. Just make sure your paper is thick enough to handle the paint!
Choosing Your Colors
Panthers are usually black, but you can get creative with your coloring! Here are some ideas:
- Classic Black Panther: Use a mix of black and dark gray for shading. Add a hint of blue or purple to give the fur a shiny look.
- Fantasy Panther: Who says Panthers can’t be pink or blue? Use your imagination and make a Panther that stands out!
- Cartoon Panthers: Bright colors like blue, green, or even rainbow can make your cartoon Panther pop off the page.
Fun Panther Fact
Did you know that Panthers are actually melanistic leopards or jaguars? That means they have a gene that gives them their dark color, but if you look closely, you might still see spots under their fur. This could be a cool detail to add to your realistic Panther drawings!
Popular Panthers
If you’re looking for some inspiration, think about some famous Panthers:
- Bagheera from The Jungle Book: Known for his sleek black coat and wise personality, you can use shades of black and gray to bring him to life.

My Coloring Experience
When I colored my Panther, I used colored pencils to get the fine details of the fur just right. I started with a base layer of dark gray, then added black on top, leaving some areas lighter to show the light hitting the fur. For a cartoon Panther, I went wild with colors – blue with green spots! It was so much fun to see how creative I could get.
