corvi Today's Implausible Invertebrate is: a teeny moon-jelly.
I have a brand new set of wax sticks, like completely transparent crayons. The idea is that you color over something with the transparent crayons and then that bit is waterproofed, so that when you put ink on it, the waterproofed bit stays the light original color and all around it turns the new color. I tried to draw a really elaborate multi-layered jellyfish with tattoos, but the ink got under the wax somehow and it all turned blue, so here is my teeny test jellyfish.
Bloop!
