Cheeky Crabbles - Weekly Challenge #88: "Official Tangle: IX"

Earlier today I started this piece and when I saw what this week's Challenge was I added the Tangle called 'IX'. I did do a practise run several weeks ago, but never really included it as a tangle as I thought the pattern was quite limited. I was thinking of ways to make 'IX' look like it belonged in this underwater scene. The large one at the top of the page was my first, then I started the one on the bottom and as I started to add the layers, an abdomen started to appear, so then I went along with it. Later on, I decided to add the flowy tentacle looking lines to fit in with the theme. Thank you for looking.

Oh, I almost forgot; being a real busy piece, I added some blue, here and there (the pic doesn't show it too well though) to lighten it up a little :)
