Coloring tips for this airplane printable

  • Use one main shade for the airplane body, then add a darker tone beneath the windows and near the engines to give the airplane simple depth.
  • Keep the clouds lighter than the airplane so the aircraft stands out clearly against the sky.
  • Color each airplane window in the same tone for a neat, even row that suits the vintage style.
  • Try a thin darker outline around the airplane tail, engines, and nose to make the aircraft shape look more defined.
  • Finish the framed border in one solid color to give the airplane pdf page a clean, complete look.
