Coloring tips for this pirate ship
- Use dark brown on the pirate ship hull and a lighter tan on the deck to help the boat stand out.
- Leave the skull symbols white and fill the pirate ship sails with black or gray for a bold pirate style.
- Color the pirate ship flags red with small gold details so they remain easy to spot at the top of the mast.
- Blend two or three shades of blue in the waves around the pirate ship, then leave a little white space for foam.
- Use coloring pencils or a fine-liner on the pirate ship portholes, ropes, and mast lines if you want cleaner details.
