Colored pencils are excellent for achieving fine feather details and smooth blending on the body. Fine-tip markers can be used for crisp lines on the beak and eye. Watercolors could create soft washes for a more artistic interpretation.
Start by coloring the largest body sections with light, even pressure. Use a limited palette of 3-4 colors for simplicity. Practice staying within the lines to define the duck's form clearly.
Employ layering techniques to build depth in the feathers, using multiple shades of a single hue. Use cross-hatching or stippling for realistic feather textures. Blend colors smoothly on the head and neck for a polished finish.
