    How do you want your dragon to look? It's your choice! You can use a variety of drawing materials. For example crayons, colored pencils, or markers. Crayola is a popular brand, but any type will do. Dragons are typically the color of a reptile, but you can be as colorful as you prefer. Browns, greens, black, and even gold make good shades for the body. A pink or purple dragon would be great too. You can decide if you want your dragons to look fierce or cute. A fierce dragon would spit fire from it's mouth, but a happy dragon might have a smile. Personalize your dragon any way you like!
