Cute Komodo Dragon

Meet this cheerful young Komodo dragon, a powerful island lizard with a broad head, sturdy legs, a long curling tail and a tiny forked tongue used to explore its surroundings. Children can colour the body olive green, earthy brown, sandy tan or soft grey, then use darker shades for the simple scale spots along the back and tail. Try cream on the belly, dark brown on the claws, pink or red for the tongue, and black or brown for the nose. Add fresh greens to the grass and bush, warm greys to the rocks, bright colours to the flowers, and pale blue to the clouds. Colour carefully inside the bold lines, leave a few white eye highlights, and add sunshine, insects or distant island hills in the open spaces.
