Creature Breacher

Creating perceived motion is definitely a goal of mine when I'm making these. In a previous version I animated the horizontal lines upwards but it just became too much - the staggered ripple was enough to give that sense of movement.

Adding details like the gradient increasing the higher the 'fin' gets can also really lift a design without overpowering it.
