Step nine is detail time. This is the best part...it takes a basic turtle to a special one with a personality. I use a stylus to make dots (I love dots!) but an old ball point pen works well too if the ink is dried up. Look at the green bars on the left and compare them to the ones on the right. Dots make things pop. Big Grin Let dry.

Next, paint the inside of the turtle’s shell very dark green or black and let dry. When dry, add the turtles face. When the head is dry, paint the eyes, mouth and any extra lines you want. The tail is last and now you have your first turtle!
