Description Can I say, holy *bleeeeeep*? o___o A DD?! Thank you so much everyone! <3




Hello everyone!
It's my FIRST FLASH ever so I'm excited about finishing this. <3

This is a step-by-step all you need to know about how to draw a jellyfishes! 5 different jellyfish are introduced and made in this. A total of 89 pages are in this tutorial.

Credits are on the last page of the flash but as a reminder, my information source was basically Wikipedia. So if any of the information you read is incorrect, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix it.


Thanks a bunch! Please comment and let me know if it is helpful and what kind of tutorial you'd like to see from me next!

Thanks so much for this! I was googling "how to draw jellyfish" and found your tutorial. I used it to draw a sea nettle so I can make a print from it.

Well, I searched for jellyfishes on DA hoping to find some good pictured, but I got more! This is really godsent. Sure, I work with watercolours and not Photoshop... Seeing that you are an artist even with a physical brush and not only the virtual one, what do you say? Do you think it can be done? I'm a bit worried for the tiny tentacles, even using the masking fluid...

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Mysticalpchan In reply to Holly-Ashes [2011-11-05 19:53:51 +0000 UTC]

Absolutely can be done. ^_^ It's a different process for certain, but the basic principals are nonetheless the same. Drawing the basic image down on the paper, but very lightly so you can erase or "delete the layer" later. Painting on the background first as a standard principal for water color not just in the tutorial. Slowly build on the colors needed for the animal itself. For detailing, giving extra time for the base colors to dry. After it all, you can erase the lines. I'm sure you knew all that though.

I've been thinking of expanding my tutorials with medium's other than Photoshop (already started on a few kinds). Since it may help more-so than the photoshop based ones.

The Aurelia acually has four larger, more distinct circles in the shape of a flower at the top. It's my favoite jellyfish because of these circles. :>
