Pelican Color Palette: What colors should I use?
When coloring a pelican, consider using soft whites and light grays for the body to give it that classic, elegant look. The bill can be a vibrant orange or yellow to add a pop of color, while the legs can be a muted brown to complement the overall palette. You might also want to add a hint of blue or teal to the water below the pelican to create a serene environment. Finally, touches of green for any surrounding vegetation would also enhance the scene.

Habitat Elements: Incorporate environmental aspects such as water, marshlands, or coastal landscapes that reflect the pelican's natural habitat. Consider the colors of the surroundings and how they complement or contrast with the pelican’s feathers.
-
Pelican Features: Highlight specific features like the beak, eye, and feet. Use variations in shading and texture to emphasize these characteristics, perhaps reflecting the light in different ways based on their natural color and surroundings.
