A tiny hanging lantern-like fruit cluster adds a fun surprise, plus a wide platform with little flowers below. You’ll have lots of clear areas to color while keeping clean, even outlines

Coloring Tips

Use soft grays for the panda: light gray for the body and darker gray for the ears, eye patches, and arm shadows around the stalk.

Color the bamboo stalk with layered greens: start with pale green, then add a mid-green banding in the vertical strip areas and finish with darker green near the joints.

For the leafy branch under one arm, mix two greens—bright green on the outer leaves and slightly yellow-green in the center—to make it pop.

Add lantern-like fruit highlights: color the cluster with warm orange or red, then use a light yellow pencil/marker on the top edges for a cute glow effect.

Shade the bamboo platform and cushion: use light tan for the platform, then add gentle pencil shading under the panda and along the cushion’s curves so the scene looks dimensional without messy lines.
