Medusa Rising

Medusa Rising

In my ongoing mission to ‘get the hang of vectors’, I came up with this. It’s an attempt to give my 2D medusa some depth.

I also wanted to play with the fear (is it just me?) of looking down and everything dropping away into darkness.

At this point I’m still finding out what’s possible and surprising myself along the way
…The biggest surprise was the eight hours it took my (shonky) computer to turn it into a bit-map.



Medusa Rising belongs to the following groups:

Out of the Blue (75%+ Blue), Underwater & Sealife (Limit 2 Per Day) and Vector Goodness Lounge Available for sale as

    Really impressed, wouldn’t have guessed vector, I was always fascinated with Freehand’s gradient fills but gave over to Photoshop’s airbrush eventually. I like this better that the beastie that arose from Farpoint Station!

  • Mungo replied

    I did it all in inkscape (open source!)...lots and lots of gradient fills….

    (quickly googles ‘farpiont station’) aha! I loved that show!

    Ah… I see we both enjoy jellyfish and lego. I love the depth you have in this one – and the jelly looks nice and squidgy.
