Diplodocus Colouring Page

Meet Diplodocus carnegii, a fascinating prehistoric dinosaur with long low-sweeping neck, slim head, sturdy column-like legs and a very long whip-like tail. The simple scene places it among wide fern plain, cycads and distant conifers, leaving plenty of open space for young artists. Try sage green, tan or lavender-grey with a lighter underside. Children can also invent a brand-new dinosaur palette and give the prehistoric plants their own shades. Move your crayon along the long neck and tail in one direction, keeping the narrow tail tip neat. Start with the biggest body shapes, use lighter pressure near small details, and enjoy bringing this ancient world to life!
