Smiling Bat Waving One Wing Coloring Page

One wing is up in the air on this bat and the other is open at its side, which is the whole gesture: it is waving. The raised wing stretches well above the head and ends in a small hooked thumb claw at the tip, drawn narrower than the wing it is paired with. The lowered wing is a proper broad membrane with a scalloped edge and two long fold lines.

The animal is turned at a three quarter angle toward the right, so you get one large eye with a highlight, a rounded muzzle, a small closed smile and one tall pointed ear rather than a symmetrical front view. Two feet with splayed toes hang below the body.

The line throughout is thin and the ink coverage is low, which leaves a tall strip of empty paper down the right side of the sheet and a wide one across the bottom.

That openness is worth using rather than ignoring. A sky, a speech bubble or a simple ground line would all sit comfortably in the space, and the light line means added pencil work will not look out of place beside it.
