Color choices
Mermaid colors can begin with the flowing hair, shell top and broad tail fin. Use turquoise and sea green across the scales, with purple or coral accents for contrast. Try gold on the crown and warm peach or pink on the shells and starfish. Finish with deep blue waves, pale sky tones, cream sails and a dark flag.
Tail Scale Pattern
Color the tail scales in a repeating ocean-inspired pattern, then echo those shades in the fin and curling waves.
