Ancient Tombstone
Practice your texture work by coloring the cracks and mossy weeds. Teacher's Tip: Use a stippling technique with a dark green marker to make the moss look realistic.
Ken Kaneki Mask
This page is a great exercise in split-face composition. Keep the human side soft and natural, while using bold, aggressive strokes for the ghoul side.

Experiment with color mixing to find the perfect 'sickly' olive green. Teacher's Tip: Use a darker shade of green along the edges of the face to create a 3D rounded effect.
Demogorgon

Master your gradient skills here. Start with a light yellow for the moon and blend into dark blues and blacks for the night sky.

Have fun with 'gross' colors! Use muted yellows and greens to give the skin a decayed look. Teacher's Tip: Use a light touch to keep the teeth looking 'off-white' rather than bright white.
Cartoon Skull
Focus on light and shadow to give this skull volume. Even without color, you can use varying pressures of a grey pencil to create depth.
Cerberus
A three-headed challenge! Use this page to practice symmetry. Try coloring each head with slightly different fur tones to give them individual personalities.

Flaming Skull
Use a 'heat map' approach: bright yellow at the center of the flames, transitioning to orange and then deep red at the outer edges.

Keep it clean and fun! Use a light grey to shade the curves of the bones, which helps them look rounded rather than flat.
Monster Face
Monsters are the perfect excuse for creative color choices. Try using complementary colors like purple and yellow to make the monster stand out.

Scary Scarecrow
Use a variety of textures for the straw and fabric. Teacher's Tip: Use short, flicking strokes to mimic the look of dry straw poking out from the sleeves.
Michael Myers Mask
The key here is the 'blank' expression. Use a very pale tan or off-white for the mask, and focus on adding subtle shadows around the eyes to make it look realistic.
Friendly Zombie
This is a great page for younger artists. Focus on identifying the basic shapes—rectangles and ovals—that make up the character's body.
Ghost Rider
Focus on the contrast between the dark leather jacket and the blazing skull. Use your brightest yellows and oranges to make the flames look like they are glowing.
