how to multi color an object???

Ok iam kinda new to blender…was just trying to figure out if 2 or more different colorrs can be added to an object and how (apart from UV wrapping and appending different objects of different color’s)
For example the frog on the main page.how was it colored in different styles??? tutorials only show how to color a whole object one color .like it possible to color individual faces?? help!!! :frowning:
