Hercules Beetle Colouring Page

Two long opposing horns make this Hercules beetle an exciting shape to colour. It stands beside a rainforest branch and a broad leaf, with plenty of white space around it. Try olive green or yellow-green on the wing covers and dark brown on the head, horns and legs. Fill the small spots charcoal, then choose brown for the branch and green for the leaf. Follow the long horns from their bases to their tips with gentle strokes. Colour the little spots last and leave a pale area on the wing covers to make their curved shape stand out. Choose your own colours too, and enjoy bringing this little insect scene to life!
