I love the idea, but I think he should be more piratey and less depressing. but I guess being sad is the point...

I just like pirates too much, I guess.

Octo-pirate! I actually like this better than Octo-ninja - maybe because this one is to be pitied, not feared.

i think the shirt might have to be a lighter blue to go with the colors you used for the design

Thanks for all the comments, everyone. I appreciate that you took the time to give me some feedback (which I'm definitely going to take into consideration on the next thing I draw).

Come on, mjoo. Can you tone down the negativity when you comment on people's subs? I hope you realize that after my other comment that it doesn't feel good to be ripped on.

Nonya, I appreciate what you are trying to do, but I think it's misguided. The reason I comment on submissions is because I truly want every person here to improve their skills. So when I see an area that can be improved, I let the designer know. Then, they're more informed about their strengths and weaknesses next time they submit.



The type of feedback that I give other people is the type of feedback I would most like to receive. It's all well and good to say of a design "Nice work," but that doesn't really tell the designer anything. I'm more interested in telling the designer exactly what I would change in order to give the design a 5.



My type of feedback might not be wanted by everyone, I realize that (though to the best of my knowledge none of the designers have complained yet). If a designer only wants positive feedback, they are welcome to note that on the first comment in their submission and I will abide by that.



(As it happens, I have plenty of experience with negative feedback- check out my first four submissions, they were pretty terrible. The feedback I got helped me create more successful shirts, so thanks to those who helped me out back then.)

I dont think it's kiddy. I think its a relatively funny mockery of the kiddy t-shirts. seriously people, the loss of limbs (especially 8 of them) is not really a "kiddy" theme. I see it as a depiction of luck so sour you can't help but laugh at it. I really like the concept. And I also like the simplistic look and color scheme. It fits the underwater kind of look it appears to be going for.
