Complete The Beowulf Drawing
Let’s add some color to our drawing of the legendary hero, Beowulf! First, use a black crayon to fill in his eyes, and a peach crayon for his skin. Now, use an orange crayon for his hair and beard. Next, use shades of gray for the helmet. Then, color the chestplate with a brown crayon. Use a black crayon for the belt strap, and a dark brown crayon for the boots. Shade the belt buckle, bracers, and his ragged clothing with shades of orange. Finally, color the handle of the sword with yellow, and the blade with a light gray crayon.
