Big-Horned Gnu Close-Up

A grand wildebeest looks right at you. His long, moon-shaped horns sweep out and curl like big handles. Short lines on his forehead show where the fur bunches. His eyes stay calm and steady, while his ears peek out from the sides.

A shaggy beard drapes from his chin and neck, with strands that hang like streamers. The nose sits square and wide, with deep nostrils ready for a snort. Thick outlines make strong shapes, and the open background leaves room for sky or grass you add. This big fellow waits quietly, strong and still.

Fun Fact!

Wildebeest need to drink water every day or two, which is one of the main reasons these animals are always on the move.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Blend brown and gray with light strokes to shade the fur lines.
  2. 2 Use a pale gray first on the horns, then add darker edges for curve.
  3. 3 Leave tiny white spots on the nose and eyes for shiny highlights.
  4. 4 Add a soft sky or grass behind him to frame the tall horns.
