Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Shimmering Scales - Use varying shades of silver, grey, and light blue for the barracuda's body to create a realistic, reflective look. Add small strokes to define individual scales.
2. 2🖍️ Translucent Fins - Color the fins with very light, almost transparent blues or greens, allowing the background water colors to subtly show through, just like real fish fins.
3. 3✨ Sunlit Waters - Blend vibrant yellows and oranges for the sun rays, fading into soft blues and greens for the surrounding water. Use lighter tones where the sun hits directly.
4. 4🌈 Rocky Depths - For the distant rock formations, use darker shades of grey, brown, and deep green. Experiment with texture by using short, varied strokes to make them look rugged and ancient.
