An interesting problem... it turns out that Octopuses are not so easy to draw (correctly that is...), "The inspiration for the red-orange 'septopus' (he has seven tentacles) [oops] is a mimic octopus, which, explained character art director Jason Deamer, 'is capable of changing the color and texture of its skin to almost vanish; they are also known to form the shape and motion of other fish. That’s where I got to thinking about Hank as a reluctant superhero and exaggerating that talent—to change color and shape shift.'" - The Holywood Reporter. Okay, so they are ARMS, and they had to take some artistic liberties with the mouth.... but otherwise, as you can see above, an impressive rendering.
