Bandicoot coloring pages

Long pointy nose down, a little bandicoot with big round ears and a skinny tail sniffs through a pile of leaves. The outlines are thick and smooth, with wide eyes, small paws and no background at all, so little hands can focus on one friendly shape. It suits toddlers and preschoolers aged 2 to 5. Try sandy brown for the body, pink for the nose and ears, and green or orange for the leaves.

Snuffling along the forest floor, a bandicoot with a long snout, whiskers and a thin tail hunts for food among fallen leaves, twigs and pebbles. A tree trunk, a leafy plant, a mossy log and a clump of tall grass sit behind it. Clear lines and medium shapes suit kids aged about 5 to 10. Color the fur grayish brown with a pale belly and the leaves in autumn yellows and greens.

Nose to the ground, a lifelike bandicoot with finely drawn fur forages through a carpet of eucalyptus leaves and gumnuts. Tall trunks, a fallen log, ferns, gum blossoms and small wildflowers fill the woodland around it. The level of detail suits older kids, teens and adults who enjoy realistic wildlife pages. Build the fur with light and dark browns over a sandy base, and add olive and sage greens to the plants.

Leafy patterns ripple through the coat of a bandicoot sniffing at a gumnut in a dense bush scene. Fern fronds, eucalyptus leaves, gum blossoms, berries and patterned gumnuts crowd every corner, with tall trunks behind. Made for teens and adults who like detailed, relaxing work with fine pens. Try warm tans and rusty browns for the bandicoot against deep forest greens and a few red berries.
