Wow, this is the first shirt since early September that has made me want to buy it. Amazing job and I hope the print is as amazing as the photo.
Again, Congrats!

Oh, this is good. If I wasn't saving for Dragons Blow (that's coming up tomorrow, right, please?), I might think about getting this. Nice touch making the clouds look like seaweed and waves, and not just random billowing blotches of ink.

Very cool shirt. I love the concept of an octopus riding a submarine pen upwards, propelled by fancy sworls of ink.

But for me, this shirt is too "busy" - it has too much going on to take in in a quick viewing.
I'm afraid (for me anyway), this is an example of a great design, but not a great tee-shirt design.
Sometimes you want a little busy-ness to your business. I know of at least one coffee shop where the newer staff remembers me as 'that guy with the cool shirts.' This is the kind of shirt where a quick look will leave the impression of an intricate design, and invite a second look. Fine by me. Not to mention I also love cephalopods, and I think I have most of the shirts from past derbies that have them. (Can't wait 'til someone tries a cuttlefish)
