This is the page for anyone who came looking for a monster with a bit of an edge. He sits on a low rock in profile, tail stretched out along the ground behind him, and a row of tall triangular spines runs the length of his back from head to tail tip. Those spines are the feature to color first. Give them a lighter tone than the body and they lift off the back instead of sinking into it. His body is covered in large open scale outlines, which is a lot of small shapes and the reason this sheet suits an older colorer. You do not have to fill every scale. Pick out a scattered handful in a darker shade, leave the rest pale, and the eye fills in the pattern by itself. Solid coloring every scale takes an hour and looks flatter than the shortcut does. The rock is deliberately plain, just a few open curves with nothing inside, so it sits back and lets the animal hold the page. The jaw is open on a row of pointed teeth. Leave those white. A white tooth against a colored gum line is what makes a monster look toothy rather than muddy. Print it free as a PDF.
