Fairy Tale Castle Gate Coloring Page

Raised drawbridge planks create strong vertical lines that contrast with the horizontal cross-bracing underneath, while the pointed archway frames the entrance with radiating stone segments on this coloring sheet. Brick patterns curve around each tower, following the cylindrical forms from base to battlements. Water ripples in the moat mirror the castle's foundation, with wave lines that give depth to the foreground scene. The stonework texture needs varied gray tones to show dimension-try darker shades in the mortar lines between bricks and lighter values on the rounded tower surfaces. Wooden drawbridge planks might use browns ranging from honey oak to deep walnut, creating contrast against cool stone grays. The moat water could feature blues or greens with white highlights along the ripple crests to suggest movement and reflection.
