Well, this is my entry for the Decemberists Loves Threadless contest. This came to mind for "You will not feel the drowning". Enjoy!

a coffin with a window? kinda creepy

awesome design. the squid could use a little work, maybe make the head longer, less compact. fantastic detail, on her and the bubbles.

I like the squid... I think it's supposed to be pointing not straight to the side, but like... in the direction of one's chest if t-shirts were 3-D. I know I explained that horridly, but that's the impression I get. I really love this! Great work. :)

Something is bothering me about the position of the hands or arms. Good design idea though...

KarstenMoran9 on Dec 12 '06

Another great design! Love the squid.

dacat on Dec 12 '06

Thanks folks! cold and scary...yes! The theme is "drowning" :-)

think the squid should be placed more towards the center of the shirt so that it would look mor as if the squid were carrying the coffin across the shirt/water

The coffin with the window reminded me of the TV show Angel (cuz what a geek am I). Reminded me in a good way - in a way that made me like the shirt (cuz what ageek am I).

The space between her arms and her body is what's messing with me. I think they should be closer to body, based on the funerals I've been to. Her arms are really short; when I cross mine like that the elbows reach my hipbones, or at least my belly-button.

My favorite Decemberists shirt though. Nice and creepy, because it's also kind of happy, IMO.

I keep stumbling on your designs which I really like. It is scary, but it's also real. Great detail!
