Description
A couple of weeks ago, I visited the Monterey Bay Aquarium for the first time. The whole experience was pretty awesome, but the jellyfish exhibit was particularly surreal and inspired me to crank out this piece!Because of the vertical formatting of this one, I've also posted a cropped "detail shot":

nice. Normally jellyfish are always drawn alongside beautiful mermaids or something, but you mixed it with a fat villain. ^^ Fun and unique!

This is such a beautiful concept. It's like a lamp/mech/jellyfish suit. I can see how this was inspired by the aquarium. I has a similar experience in Monte Ray at their aquarium. They had a jelyfish exhibit that blew my mind. I was too lazy to do an illustration inspired by it, but this one is great!
