Before you put color to paper, observe the Red Death's silhouette. Notice how its scales flow like water, and its wings have a dynamic, curvaceous shape. Understanding these forms will help you add depth and realism to your coloring.

Scaling Excellence

Dragons aren't smooth like snakes, so avoid using flat shades. Instead, pick five or six shades of red, from light to dark, to create depth. Start with the lightest color and gradually shift to darker shades as you move towards folds and edges.

Blend colors by lightly overlapping shades. This creates a subtle,Natural gradient that's perfect for dragon scales. Don't overdo it, though – remember, dragons aren'tfluffy cats!

Winging It

Dragon wings are complex structures, so tackle them section by section. Begin with the outer membrane and uselighter shades of red, as light would reflect andbrighten these areas. Gradually shift to darker shades as you move inwards.
