Coloring Techniques for Feline Features:

  • When coloring cat eyes, leave a small white highlight to make them appear shiny and lifelike.
  • Layer colors from light to dark to create depth and dimension in your cat’s coat.

Recommended Coloring Tools:

  • For Detailed Work: Colored pencils offer precision and blending capabilities for realistic cat pages.
