The way that jellyfish glow has always reminded me of space- I wanted to connect two great unknowns in this design- the depths of the ocean and outer space. Hope you enjoy

Also, thanks to narfcake for the (unknowing) encouragement to do this design :P

Very interesting design. A friend of mine once referred to some jellies as looking like starfighters, so the comparison is very apt!

Yes, and it shapeshifts into a space station if you underfeed it and gives apples to Commander Riker...

I like the juxtaposition of the two ideas and the lack of penguins ;) Nice work!

Yes, it reminded me of Encounter at Farpoint, but it is pretty.

This is very, very lovely. And I agree with others. I adore your cute designs to bits, but these last ones have been so... Refreshingly beautiful?

I like your non- cute animal designs , but stuff like this is so much better! You are very talented ramby.

I happen to have just watched that episode tonight (my family has been going through Star Trek together), so I thought of the same thing.

Woot: I'm in it for the monkeys.

y u no do moar liek dis!!1!1!

Seriously! Every time I see something that I wouldn't expect to have been made by ramyb (because it's not a cute fluffy animal/penguin--which, I have a few of, don't get me wrong), I get absolutely floored and if I had more money onhand, I'd have bought every single non-cutesy that popped up.

*huff huff huff*

Stick with awesome designs like this instead of the easy to do cute animals!

Got my vote!

You know...I hadn't believed that this was going to be the year the world ended until now. A RamyB post with NO hate?! The end is nigh.

Seriously, though. I recently went to the Georgia Aquarium and my favorite tank was the one with the jellyfish. They had a fantastic ephemeral, translucent beauty that this shirt captures elegantly. I wonder if it will print as pretty?

Thought I posted a comment for this already ... guess not.

Well, what is there for the naysayers to complain about? No turbunguins, no rehashed concepts, no deficiencies in perspectives ... it's just very eye pleasing.

And if it prints, this very well would end up being my 8th Ramy shirt. Which is saying something, considering my position not even a year ago.

Beautiful, beautiful design.

I just hope the print does it justice.

Beautiful work. <3 I wish I didn't have so many black shirts already though, or I would be more excited about this contending.

I lost the "guess the ramyb" game, this time. I'm pretty okay with that, though.

Great job! +1.
