Color choices

Realistic capybara fur can begin with warm brown, using deeper umber around the ears, legs, and shaded neck. Try muted olive and yellow-green across the reeds, grasses, and lily pads, with pale pink or white for the flowers. Finish the river in soft blue, leaving light highlights and using cool gray shadows for contrast against the sandy bank.

Riverbank Texture Plan

Use smooth shading for the water and short, varied strokes for the capybara’s fur. Give the reeds, broad leaves, and sandy bank distinct color patterns.
