#0001 - Gelee


Maybe it's cheating a bit, but finding Blobs and Snakes is really easy when you are drawing from scribbles. But, that's why I try to make them all look as unique as I can so they don't all end up as boring jelly monsters and serpents. Instead of a simple Jelly Cube or something, I made it look kind of like a snowman made from strawberry jam. For extra Character, I added a drooping face, like an aging Jack-O-Lantern.

The Gelee didn't start out as #0001 on my list, but I took a liking to it after I didn't much care for my initial first drawing for the challenge (I did do an overhaul redesign later down the line. see #0238 - Roostonda at a later date).

My Younger self decided to have a theme for the drawings I would create and went with a fantasy-type setting, so I will keep that going: Strange creatures are often found all over the Kingdom of Portentia, but their appearance has increased twofold in just a matter of weeks. Is this simply an overpopulation event that needs culling, or is something more sinister afoot?




They even come in six delicious fruity flavors!

Bestiary Description:
Gelee are gelatin-like creatures that can appear virtually anywhere water naturally occurs, but these creatures are far from natural. Ages ago, an evil wizard formulated a powder that could be added to liquids to spawn jelly monsters that would do his bidding. However, he accidentally dropped the caplets down a well and the Gelee have run rampant ever since. 
All it takes is 1.oz of this Gelee powder to convert a 3-Liter Water basin into a full-sized Gelee. They don't feel pain, and if sliced in two, they simply form themselves into a smaller version of their "Natural" form.
If they stray too far from a water source, they dry out and turn back into the powdered substance.

  1. Looks awesome! I love the vivid colors! It might be cool to revisit it and experiment with different things. Like being able to see a skull or other bones within it. Or bubbles. Stuff like that.

    1. A Bone Gelee would be fun to see. May have to try that out!
