Ghost Ship on a Stormy Sea Coloring Page

A ghost ship pitches through curling storm waves under a huge cratered moon. Tattered sails carry a skull-and-crossbones emblem, while ghosts stand among the rigging, wheel, railings, and lantern.

Color choices

Ghost ship can begin with deep brown planks and charcoal railings, leaving pale highlights along the hull. Shade the tattered sails in smoky gray and muted violet, then use darker edges around the tears. Color the waves navy and teal with white foam, and give the moon a soft yellow glow. Bright green or lavender ghosts will contrast with the skull emblem and storm clouds.

Tattered Sail Patterns

Fill the sail panels with alternating smoky shades, keeping the torn edges darker. Repeat the same palette on the flag for a connected ship design.
