    thanks, this has to be one of my best works, although im not finished converting and cleaning it for apparel print. i gotta fix the hilt of the sword, its totally off compared to the blade. i was thinking about putting text in there. the title is Fight the Good Fight. which after i named it, i found out was from scripture, so i put that serpent and apple to allude to the religious themes.

    not sure if it would be too much for threadless, although i feel like if i do submit there, and it doesnt win, ill never do a highly illustrative design to submit there.

    adamastephens: yes, it is a pencil sketch.

    Sometimes I dont get threadless. If you submit this it should obviously print. It’s evident that alot of time and effort went into creating this. I’ve seen some great illustrations on there in the past that get way over looked as far as voting goes. If you put it on DBH you got my vote.

    the sun needs rays or something.

    also the label needs to actually wrap around the cup. looks too flat.

    like the idea though.

    the label needs to wrap around the cup, not just sit flat in front of it.

    pitching this to senses fail:

    i usually don’t touch fonts, but I really wanted to in this case for the style I was going for. Any thoughts? Yes, this is definitely inspired by edgil’s lettering on a recent piece, I’m not trying to copy him.
