UglyDolls Coloring Pages
Free UglyDolls Coloring Pages: 29 printable PDF designs featuring the plush toy characters, including Moxy, Ox, Ugly Dog, Lucky Bat, Babo, Wage, and Lou, solo and in group scenes together. Every page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser, with no account required.
UglyDolls began as a single hand-sewn plush toy called Wage, made by Sun-Min Kim as a gift for her creative partner and future husband, David Horvath, in 2001. The toy grew into a full plush line launched that same year, later earning the Toy Industry Association’s Specialty Toy of the Year award in 2006. In 2019, the characters reached a wider audience through an animated film that follows Moxy, a curious pink doll from the town of Uglyville, as she ventures into the Big World and encounters Lou, the polished, image-obsessed leader of the Institute of Perfection.
With 29 pages spanning solo portraits, character pairs, and full group scenes, the set works well for both a young fan discovering one favorite character and an older colorist interested in the full Uglyville cast.
What Is Inside This Collection
The 29 pages are grouped by character, since most of the set is built around a handful of named UglyDolls rather than a single shared scene.
Ox and Moxy Solo Portraits
Nine pages feature the two most central characters: Ox, the horned blue mentor figure and unofficial mayor of Uglyville, and Moxy, the pink, endlessly curious doll at the center of the film’s story. These pages make up the largest single-character group in the set.
Ugly Dog and Lucky Bat Solo Portraits
Six pages cover Ugly Dog and Lucky Bat, a thoughtful, soft-spoken red bat character who serves as an adviser figure among Moxy’s friends.
Babo, Wage, and Lou
Four pages feature three more distinct personalities: Babo, the largest of the UglyDolls; Wage, a cynical baker character and the very first UglyDoll ever created; and Lou, the film’s antagonist and the only “perfect doll” pictured in this collection.
Group Scenes with Multiple Characters
Five pages bring several characters together in the same frame, including one scene combining Ox, Moxy, and Ugly Dog, and another with Mandy, Moxy, Ugly Dog, and Lucky Bat. These pages are the most detailed in the set, since each character keeps its own distinct color scheme within a single page.
Generic and Unlabeled Designs
The remaining five pages carry generic titles without naming a specific character. They appear to feature a mix of the main cast based on context, but the vague titles make it hard to identify exactly who is pictured on each one without opening the file.
What UglyDolls Coloring Pages Do
Fine motor development. The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7. The stitched seams and patchwork-style details drawn onto several UglyDolls characters give young colorists a distinct texture to practice alongside their usual smooth outlines.
A visual entry point to a story about self-acceptance. Because the UglyDolls story centers on imperfect characters learning to value their own differences rather than chase a polished ideal, coloring Moxy or Ox in bold, unconventional color combinations gives a child a small, hands-on way to engage with that theme without needing the full film explained first.
Anxiety reduction through focus. A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions. The soft, rounded shapes shared by nearly every character in this set give colorists a gentle, low-pressure form to settle into.
Practice keeping several distinct characters visually separate. Since Ox, Moxy, Wage, Babo, and Lucky Bat each use a different base color and body shape, this collection is a useful set for practicing how to keep a small ensemble cast visually distinct within the same coloring session, especially on the group scene pages.
How to Color UglyDolls Pages Well
- Moxy: a bright Crayola Carnation Pink or Magenta for her body, since her pink color and wide, expressive smile are her most identifiable features.
- Ox: Crayola Cerulean or Blue for the body, with a slightly darker blue for his small horns, keeping the color flat and cheerful rather than shaded.
- Wage: Crayola Orange for the body, a fitting color for a baker character who is meant to stand out with a warm, energetic look.
- Babo: a soft Crayola Gray, since he is the largest character in the set and reads best with an even, unshaded tone across his whole body.
- Lucky Bat: Crayola Red for the body, kept simple and consistent, since his quieter, adviser-like personality is reflected in a plainer color treatment than some of the louder characters.
- Lou: unlike the UglyDolls themselves, Lou is meant to look conventionally polished, so a smooth, even skin tone and neatly combed hair color help him stand out as the “perfect doll,” in contrast to the rest of the cast.
