Ediacaran Fauna -- or Flub?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,  well this is the second drawing Ive ever made in my life other than stick figures. I consider my last post a total failure (trilobite) so Im trying another subject material.  Since the last post, Ive watched a few hours of You tube videos on how to do basic drawings, and  hopefully that made a difference.  This one took me on and off - about two days to do.  So what do you think - Fauna or Flub?  ;)

+ for fauna, way better than any drawing I’ve done!

Nice drawing! :)

I cannot draw to save my life. 

But I understand that most, if not all, the jellyfish from the Ediacaran fauna have now been reclassified.

For example this one I have is Medusina mawsoni, for decades thought to be a jellyfish but now classed as the trace fossil of the holdfast of one of those Rangeomorphs that you've drawn above. Like Charniodiscus is to Charnia.
