How to Color Astro Boy Pages Well

• His hair: Color Astro Boy’s spiky hair jet black, using a solid Crayola “Black,” and keep his two pointed hair tips crisp, which is one of his most recognizable features.
• His body: Leave his robot torso and arms a light skin tone or leave them pale, since he is designed to look like a boy, and add gray or silver for any mechanical parts.
• His shorts and boots: Color his shorts black and his knee-high boots bright red, which is his classic signature color combination.
• Big expressive eyes: Leave his large eyes white with black outlines and a small highlight, which gives him his famous, friendly anime expression.
• Rocket flying scenes: For flying pages, add orange, yellow, and red flames coming from his feet, and use blues for the sky to show his rocket-powered flight.
• City backgrounds: Color futuristic city scenes with grays and silvers for buildings, and bright colors for lights, to capture his sci-fi world.
