Gallop of the Wild Wildebeest

A sturdy wildebeest charges across the page, knees bent and hooves mid-air. His curved horns point forward, ready to steer him through the grass. Short fur ripples into a shaggy mane that streams toward his tail. Bold lines show every strong muscle from cheek to rump.

He looks focused, eyes soft but determined. Two quick motion lines beneath him hint at a fast gallop. The long tail sweeps back in a dark brushy arc. Wide open space around him invites sunny sky colors, dusty puffs, and tall grass to swish around his run.

Fun Fact!

The sound of a large wildebeest herd on the move is a constant chorus of these "gnu" sounds!

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Layer tan over brown for the body, leaving light patches along the ribs and shoulders.
  2. 2 Follow the line stripes to shade muscles with gentle, short strokes.
  3. 3 Use dark gray or black for the mane, tail tip, and hooves for contrast.
  4. 4 Add yellow-green grass and tiny dust clouds under the hooves to show speed.
