Colored pencils are ideal for capturing the fine fur textures and intricate details around the eyes and muzzle. Fine-tipped markers can be used for crisp outlines and small areas, while watercolor pencils offer soft, blendable washes for the larger body sections and background.
Start by coloring the largest areas of the donkey's face and body with light pressure. Use a simple, consistent direction for your strokes to create an even base. Don't be afraid to try simple shading by pressing a little harder in areas like under the chin or inside the ears. Work slowly and take breaks to avoid hand fatigue.
Utilize cross-hatching or stippling to create realistic fur texture, especially around the ears and muzzle. Experiment with color layering using 3-4 shades of the same hue to add depth and dimension to the donkey's coat. Use blending techniques to achieve smooth transitions on the muzzle and around the eyes. Consider adding subtle environmental shadows to the ground to enhance realism.
