Colored pencils are excellent for adding fine scale details to the hadrosaurs and layering shades on the dense foliage. Markers can provide smooth, even coverage for the lake and sky. Gel pens can be used to add shimmer to the water or highlights to the dinosaur's crests.
Start by outlining the main shapes of the dinosaurs and plants. Color the largest areas like the lake and sky first with light, even strokes. Use simple, distinct colors for each main element. Take short breaks to keep your hand relaxed and your focus sharp.
Use feathering or scumbling to create texture on the dinosaur's skin. Employ color layering to add depth to the ferns and cycads. Experiment with blending techniques for smooth transitions in the lake's reflections. Use a fine-tip pen for detailed water ripples.

A family of hadrosaurs, including two adult dinosaurs and two smaller juveniles, are gathered around the edge of a tranquil lake. One adult bends its long neck to drink from the water, its broad, flat beak partially submerged. The other adult stands guard, head held high, observing the surrounding landscape of dense prehistoric ferns and tall, slender cycads. The two juveniles mimic the drinking adult, their smaller forms mirroring the pose. Gentle ripples emanate from where their beaks touch the water surface. Distant rolling hills are visible on the horizon.
