Have you built any tee shirt cannons yet?
If not, you probably want to experiment and make a prototype single barrel shooter first. Experiment with air pressures, air discharge volumes, etc. Try to increase your efficiency of shots - make sure you can shoot eight tee shirts in a reasonable time before making an eight barrel launcher.
If you're making a multi-barrel shooter, most of the "coolness" from it just stems from the fact that either A) multi-barrels looks visually cool or B) you can rapid fire. Perhaps you only need four barrels, or maybe you can have a breach loading magazine and achieve the same level of coolness with a simpler/smaller mechanism.
