Fox Standing in a Round Glass Medallion Coloring Page

A fox stands in profile inside a closed round medallion, head up and turned to the right, with a heavy brush tail carried low behind it. The animal is drawn naturally rather than cut into glass cells, so the coat edges are ticked with short fur strokes along the chest, the shoulder, the haunch and the whole length of the tail. That makes it a quiet, unhurried sheet and a good one to start with.

The body itself stays open. The chest, flank and legs are large uninterrupted areas, and a single line separates the far legs from the near ones so the fox reads as standing rather than flat.

Under the fox a low sloped pane gives it ground to stand on, and behind it the background is cut into a few wide wedges that run out toward the rim. Short radiating lines mark the rim itself, inside two heavy concentric circles.

Because the fox is one mass, value is what carries the page. Keep the tail tip and the chest pale, take the back and flank warmer, and let the wedge panes behind go cool. Markers handle all of it except the ticked fur edges, which want a pencil. This one goes quickly, in about twenty five minutes.
