Shirt.Woot

Rub A Dub Dub, eight tentacles in a tub!.

It might be just me, but this design has an old-school shirt.woot feel to it. Nicely done.

Insert joke about being a sucker here.

I like the water themed baby blue shirts. Going to go put my Waiting for the suB back in circulation.

Okay, I give up: what's a kracken and why is it in a bathtub?

Why is there a shower head but no shower curtain?

Awwww what a cute little happy Kraken monster of death.

Wikipedia is your friend for those Kraken clueless http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraken http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraken_in_popular_culture

It occurs to me that had cephalopods been the dominant species, there would be no woot write up being typed. I mean cephalopods seem to really like water and last I checked water doesn't work well around computer typing kind of things.

I wish this was available as a wallpaper. It's so cute.

Congrats! :D

Right click on picture, select "set as background" and, voila! (windows)

I can do it similarly on my Android phone.

The attention to detail and the soft wash colors make for an awesome tee. Brilliant art, Jillian!

The only other thing in this I would want to see is a larger Kraken attacking through one of the portholes. Still an awesome shirt though!

Release the bubbles!

I love how the artist made an octopus smile with nothing but a single eye. The whole piece is wonderful and detailed, one of the best shirts here in recent memory, but that eye just looks so happy to be taking a bath.

I have a framed print of this! Fantastic!

This really brings me back to when I used to take baths as a kid and my mum would always say, "Don't forget to wash your Kraken stuff."

He looks so happy! Hee!

It's still a bit too soon after the loss of the Bounty by Hurricane Sandy. :-(

A well composed and sensitively done illustration. If only every t-shirt in the world could be treated so kindly! I love it.

This shirt matches my new socks PERFECTLY!

dearest designer o' woot.

Squid:
1.mollusk with ten arms: a ocean cephalopod mollusk that has two long tentacles and eight shorter arms, a long tapered body, two triangular fins, and an internal shell.

My son refused to buy.

But it is not a squid, it is a Kraken!

Misnumbered appendages aside - nice retro-style design. And I can always use another squid shirt!

I count 10 separate tentacles: Eight that taper to a pointed end and two longer tentacles that flare at the tips (both terminating at the far right). This is a properly depicted squid. Well done.

Might want to count again.. There are 9 appendages emerging from the tub. It looks like 8 arms and one tentacle (with a tentacle club seemingly appearing from mid-air behind the arm wrapped around the pipe.)

Still bought it though...

I see ten. All 8 of the regular tentacles have definite ends, and while you cannot see the full length of both grasping tentacles, their ends are there.

The Kraken is based on ancient accounts of large Sea-monsters primarily from the areas around Norway, that were supposedly big enough to attack ships. The exact shape of The kraken varies from culture to culture, ranging from the familure squid shape, to others such as a large crab-like creature or a monster wahle.

that thar's one mighty fine shirt....

Come on, I love one cephaloplod as much as the next, and it delights me to see him enjoying his time in the tub. But can any one tell me if he is printed on the front and not the back??

Diggin' the Tony Millionare-esque ship and droll style. I'm in!
