Add a small highlight to the helmet plume and sword to make the upper part of the knight on horseback coloring page feel bright and lively.
Color the round backdrop lightly, then use slightly deeper shades for the clouds, plants, and ground so the knight on horseback remains the main focus.
If you use a fine-liner on this printable, trace only a few key edges, such as the cape, sword, and horse head, to keep the line-art look clean.
