Colored pencils are excellent for the intricate dragon scales and fine details of the eggs. Fine-tip markers can define cave textures and small gems. For larger areas like cave walls, watercolor pencils or soft pastels can create smooth transitions and atmospheric depth.
Begin by outlining major shapes with a light hand to establish boundaries. Choose a simple color scheme (3-5 colors) for the main elements. Start coloring the largest areas first, such as the cave walls. Take frequent breaks to maintain focus and prevent hand fatigue.
Create realistic scale texture by varying pressure and using cross-hatching. Apply subtle gradients on the dragon's wings to mimic membrane translucency. Use complementary colors for dramatic lighting within the cave. Experiment with light sources to make the gems sparkle.
