How to Color Squishy Jelly Effect

 

A squishy jelly effect can bring a fun and glossy vibe to your coloring pages! Today, we’ll be working on a page from "Ocean Home", illustrated by Southern Lotus Coloring Book, to create a beautiful jelly-like design using Ohuhu Markers. Follow this step-by-step tutorial to achieve a shiny, squishy look that is perfect for creative and whimsical designs!

 

Materials Needed:

 

- Ocean Home Coloring Book by Southern Lotus Coloring Book

- Ohuhu Markers (G320, RV130, B030, V020, BG4, V160, G324)

- White acrylic pen

 

Step-by-Step Guide

 

Step 1: Apply the Base Layer with G320

Start by coloring the entire jelly area with G320, a soft green shade. This base layer sets a smooth and translucent foundation for the squishy effect.

Step 1 - Apply the Base Layer

 

Step 2: Add Organic Shapes with RV130 and B030

Use RV130 and B030 to draw random organic shapes across the jelly surface. These shapes will serve as the colorful accents that create the layered and squishy appearance.

Step 2 - Add Organic Shapes

 

Step 3: Add Darker Shades with V020 and BG4

Apply V020 and BG4 over the shapes created in Step 2, keeping this layer slightly smaller to build a layered effect. This step enhances the 3D look by adding depth and dimension.

Step 3 - Add Darker Shades

 

Step 4: Deepen the Effect with V160 and G324

Repeat the process with V160 and G324, focusing on the edges and shadows of the organic shapes. The darker shades help to highlight the squishy and translucent effect, making the jelly look more realistic.

Step 4 - Deepen the Effect

 

Step 5: Add Highlights and Dots with White Acrylic Pen

For the final touch, use a white acrylic pen to add random dots and highlights. These bright spots mimic the light reflections on a squishy surface, enhancing the shiny, jelly-like effect of the design.

Step 5 - Add Highlights and Dots

 

Final Step: Your Shiny Squishy Jelly Effect is Done!

 

Your page now features a beautiful and glossy squishy jelly effect with a soft, shiny appearance that adds a playful and 3D vibe to your coloring project. This technique is perfect for creating creative and whimsical designs and pairs beautifully with the fun and cozy scenes in the Southern Lotus Coloring Book.
