About it

The shell of a textile cone snail, captured from photos and drawn with splats. Cone snails live on tropical reefs and hunt with a tiny harpoon that carries venom; the netted pattern of gold and brown tents grows at the shell's lip, line by line.

Tap it and it turns one way and the other on its point. Drag to circle it and follow the pattern.
