About this Mermaid Hello Kitty coloring page
A long tail covered in overlapping scales, seahorses on both sides, coral along the seabed and shells scattered across the sand. The scales are dozens of small repeated shapes.
How to color Mermaid Hello Kitty
- Work down the tail scale by scale, shifting slowly from green to blue.
- coral orange Colour the coral in warm oranges so it separates from the cool tail.
- pale pink Leave the bubbles white and give the sand the palest wash.
Scales are the whole drawing. Shift the colour gradually from the hip to the tip and the tail catches light instead of sitting flat.
Things to know about Mermaid Hello Kitty
- Seahorses are the only species where the male carries the pregnancy, holding the eggs in a pouch until they hatch.
- Coral is an animal, not a plant, and its colour comes from algae living inside it rather than from the coral itself.
How do I color a mermaid tail?
Scale by scale, shifting the colour slightly as you go down. A tail filled in one flat shade loses the one thing that makes it interesting.
