Finished illustration
Usually I'm done with this step, but this time I'll add some simple animation.
I wanted to express how shiny and cute they are. (The squid in the middle of the first row barely glows because it's a non-bioluminescent common bobtail setup.)
I drew the stars and the moon on their bodies, taking the idea from how they camouflage themselves with stars and moonlight.

The next icon pack is the cephalopod set and this wallpaper will be updated at the same time.
Thank you!

What a beautiful observation <3 The u-shaped pupils some of them have are wild and wonderful.
