Every time I think I have a handle on the general forms life can take they haul something even weirder out of the ocean.

Looks like something PIXAR would have created.

Gorgeous!

That's a Pokemon

@MadeMeSmile@mastodon.social this looks like something Game Freak would come up with and put into a Pokemon game... like WOW

@MadeMeSmile
Very nice renderings! What software do you use?

@MadeMeSmile is this the inspiration for Liquid Glass theme? If they'd just called it Bubble Snail I think we would have been fine.
