Start with the largest areas like the tanker body and water tower sphere. Use light, even pressure to fill spaces. Outline each section before coloring to stay within lines. Take short breaks to maintain focus and prevent hand fatigue.
Utilize cross-hatching to create texture on the truck's tires and tower structure. Employ color blending for smooth gradients on the cylindrical tanker and spherical water tank. Experiment with implied shadows to add depth beneath the truck and around the tower's base.
