Color choices

Detailed dragon scales can begin with emerald and teal across the face and neck. Shade the sweeping horns in charcoal and silver, then use deep green on the long spikes. Give the eye amber or gold, with a dark pupil for sharp contrast. Finish the broad throat plates in muted bronze to separate them from the smaller overlapping scales.

Scale Pattern Sequence

Choose a repeating color sequence for the overlapping neck scales. Use a related sequence on the facial scales while keeping the throat plates distinct.
