Sharp-Toothed Sea Monster With Long Curving Tail

A fierce fish-like creature swims across the page in a curved, S-shaped pose. Its mouth hangs open and shows rows of pointed teeth, and a long stalk with a rounded tip sticks out from the top of its head like an antenna. It has one round eye, and both clawed arms stretch out in opposite directions, with small scale marks on the arms and chest. Fins sit on its back and arms, and the body tapers into a long banded tail that ends in a ribbed fan fin. The shapes are big and the lines are clean, so it works well for kids who like action scenes. Try shading the body in deep ocean blues and greens, then use a bright color on the head stalk so it stands out. This free printable also makes a nice starting point for talking about deep sea animals.
