Cranky the Crane From Thomas and Friends

Cranky the crane stands tall in this line drawing, with his name written in big block letters on a sign across the top of his cab. The cab has a large rectangular window panel on the side, and a friendly face is drawn on the front, with wide eyes looking off to one side and a big smile. A long lattice jib reaches up toward the top right corner, and thin chains with small rings hang from the top of the cab along the arm. Underneath, a crisscross steel tower supports everything. This page is free to print, and the criss-cross beams make a great spot for practicing neat, careful strokes. Try gray and silver on the tower and jib, then pick a bold color for the cab so the lettering on the sign stands out. Kids can also count the diagonal beams as they color.
