Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Texture Magic - Use varying pressure and short strokes to mimic the grain of the wooden counter and the subtle sheen of the metal grill.
2. 2🖍️ Steam & Shine - Lightly apply blues, grays, and even a touch of white for the rising steam, and use a white gel pen or light pencil for highlights on glass and polished metal surfaces.
3. 3✨ Condiment Palette - Create realistic depth in the condiment jars by layering colors, using darker shades for shadows and lighter ones for the top surface and reflections.
4. 4🌈 Background Blending - Consider a subtle, muted background for the surrounding area to make the vibrant hotdog stand pop, using soft gradients to suggest distance or atmosphere.
