Color choices
Echidna: choose warm browns, sandy gold, or muted gray for the spines and body. Color the long snout, sturdy claws, and eye next, using darker shades for clear contrast. Give the ant mound earthy ochre tones and make the ants charcoal. Finish the leaves, grasses, blossoms, logs, and distant rocks with layered greens and natural accents.
Spine Pattern Plan
Color the spines in a repeating sequence of light and dark shades. Continue the same sequence across the echidna’s back for a connected pattern.
