Color choices

This cargo ship sits docked at a busy harbor, its deck stacked with rows of shipping containers. Try a dark blue for the ship’s hull, and varied bright colors for each container stacked on board. Give the tall cranes lifting containers overhead a bold contrasting color, and pick a warm tone for the trucks waiting at the dock. Keep the water a cool blue-gray, and let the clouds above stay soft and light.

Compare crane and truck

Color the crane’s structure first, then use a different shade for the truck below it on the dock.
