Trace first, then choose colors
Follow the faint character outline with a comfortable pencil or crayon. Turn the page if that makes a curve easier to reach. Once the outline is complete, color it in any palette; matching an example is unnecessary.
Make it a manageable activity
Set out a pencil, crayons, and one printed page. Agree on a comfortable stopping point, such as finishing the outline or one grid row. For siblings, print separate copies so each child can choose a pace and add personal details.
Try a cartoon character portraits extension
Look at clothing and facial details that give each character a personality. Imagine where the character is going and sketch a setting separately.
Print without stretching the artwork
Download the original JPG, then open it in an image viewer or your browser. Choose portrait orientation and fit the whole image to the printable area. Check the preview before printing; do not use a fill or crop setting. The download preserves Kevin Coulston’s original artwork.
