How to draw special tikz borders

I am trying to draw a diagram showing the action of soap on grease and dirt. Currently I have the following diagram:



enter image description here



I would like the shapes that surround the large orange-yellow blobs to be the same as the shapes that are free and not bound. The code is as follows:

          Ok, I made some refinements:




          1. Use pics for the lipids.

          2. Adjust their shading angle to make the shading uniform. The shading angle is computed based on the actual orientation of the lipids.

          3. Lifted the lipids up. To change the lift, change 2mm in path pic[midway,sloped,yshift=2mm] {lipid};

          • Mainly a fixed distance. Also on another note, if you look at the picture in the original image from the question, the lipids stick out more, but I think I can do that myself. Thanks so much

          • There appears to be one issue that I have only come across now, the shading on the green-purple region changes with the orientation of the lipid. Is it possible to make it a fixed gradient such that it is always purple at the end near the circle and green at the tail. I would like to apply this to all the lipids (including the free ones)

          • @sabhoque Yes. I updated the thingy. (The shading of the purple region is radial, I think, so it is invariant under rotations.)

          Ok, I made some refinements:




          1. Use pics for the lipids.

          2. Adjust their shading angle to make the shading uniform. The shading angle is computed based on the actual orientation of the lipids.

          3. Lifted the lipids up. To change the lift, change 2mm in path pic[midway,sloped,yshift=2mm] {lipid};

          • Mainly a fixed distance. Also on another note, if you look at the picture in the original image from the question, the lipids stick out more, but I think I can do that myself. Thanks so much

          • There appears to be one issue that I have only come across now, the shading on the green-purple region changes with the orientation of the lipid. Is it possible to make it a fixed gradient such that it is always purple at the end near the circle and green at the tail. I would like to apply this to all the lipids (including the free ones)

          • @sabhoque Yes. I updated the thingy. (The shading of the purple region is radial, I think, so it is invariant under rotations.)

          Ok, I made some refinements:




          1. Use pics for the lipids.

          2. Adjust their shading angle to make the shading uniform. The shading angle is computed based on the actual orientation of the lipids.

          3. Lifted the lipids up. To change the lift, change 2mm in path pic[midway,sloped,yshift=2mm] {lipid};

          4. Cleaned up a bit.

          Boot-repair Failure: Unable to locate package grub-common:i386

          0 I am on a system dual-booting Windows and Debian (usually using the latter), and a recent Windows update appears to have wreaked havoc on the Debian boot system. I managed to boot Windows again, but not Linux. Following online suggestions, I created a Live USB of Ubuntu, and booted from that. Then I have installed and run the boot-repair utility. The utility instructs me to type several lines including sudo chroot "/mnt/boot-sav/sda6" apt-get purge -y grub*-common grub-common:i386 To which I receive the error E: Unable to locate package grub-common:i386 I am given to understand the issue may have to do with having UEFI vs BIOS (I believe I have UEFI), but do not understand this well.
