Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Metallic Sheen - Use shades of silver, grey, and even a touch of blue or green for the barracuda's body to give it a realistic, reflective look.
2. 2🖍️ Water's Depths - Experiment with varying blues and greens for the water, making it lighter near the surface where the sun hits, and deeper in the background.
3. 3✨ Sunlight Rays - Lightly use yellow, white, or very pale blue pencils to highlight the sun's rays streaming through the water, creating a magical, shimmering effect.
4. 4🌈 Rocky Textures - For the distant rock formations, use earthy tones like browns, greys, and dark greens, adding small strokes to suggest texture and age.
