Color choices
Snapping turtle can begin with an olive or moss-green shell, followed by tan along the raised shell ridges. Color the head, legs, and tail in a softer green, with dark accents around the eye and claws for contrast. Try fresh greens for the lily pads and reeds, pink or white for the water lily, and blue for the surrounding water.
Shell Color Sequence
Color neighboring shell sections with alternating shades, then repeat the same color sequence around the border plates.
