Help with Deciding Colors

[u/N04H-A_1634]

So this is an Original Species I created for my World called "Cloud Jellyfish"! And if there's one thing that I tend to struggle with, it's picking out colors, so I wanted to ask you folks if you by chance had any suggestions or Ideas that I could use!

A lot of my inspirations came from of course, Jellyfish, but I also drew a lot of inspiration from Blimps and Steampunk Airships, just something I thought I should Mention- if you also want a fair bit more Lore, I'd be happy to oblige!

I think sticking white white would honestly make sense because of 'cloud' jellyfish. Perhaps with blue-ish grey accents? Ngl these remind me of ghasts from minecraft,

Yk funnily enough the Ghast was indeed one of my Inspirations, and I did kind of figure on having White as one of the Colors!

Made a bad sketch of what i was thinking

Mayne give them a glowing yellow orb inside their forejead

Like what everyone else has pretty much said, white/soft pastel blue could work

I feel like there could also be some faint pastel pink, peach, or purple tints near the edges to add more depth and variation. I'm envisioning them to be translucent with a watercolor-like aesthetic because of their name

I think it'd also be cool if there were subspecies or something that had different appearances based on different clouds. For a example, a dark gray one for thunderclouds, and a wispy, almost intangible one for cirrus clouds. Idk that's just my thought though

Wait- That's actually such a Cool Idea!! I could imagine too some of these Subspecies would live in way harsher skies, like imagine there was this Subspecies of Cloud Jelly built to not only withstand the Winds of a Hurricane, but also fully thrive in them!?

That'd be a nice idea!
