Curious Little Parasaurolophus in the Fern Forest

Fun Fact

Parasaurolophus had a long, hollow crest on its head that looked a bit like a trombone! Scientists think they used it to make loud trumpet-like sounds to communicate with each other, like calling out warnings or attracting mates.

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Layered Greens - Use many shades of green for the ferns, from dark forest green in the shadows to bright lime green for highlights on the fronds.
2. 2🖍️ Dinosaur Skin Texture - Apply colors with small, overlapping strokes to create a scaly texture for the Parasaurolophus's skin. Consider earthy tones like greens, browns, or even soft yellows.
3. 3✨ Expressive Eyes - Make the Parasaurolophus's eyes pop! Use a lighter color for the iris and add a tiny white dot for a sparkle, showing its curiosity.
4. 4🌈 Depth and Detail - Remember the foreground and background ferns. Use darker, cooler colors for things further away and warmer, brighter colors for elements closer to the viewer to create depth.
