would have been neat if the smoke shapes were actually something specific, but what's not to like about a viking

I like the flames and smoke something about the boat needs improving though.

Awesome design! I like it much better on the green than the blue-- although I think the design lends itself much better to a brown shirt.

WOW! Arresting design -- the only thing i might suggest is to:

1) eliminate the heavy black outline around the smoke altogether,

or

2) make it a lighter orange instead, visually keeping the ship the heaviest object in your design

What a great design. I hope they print this one, cuz I want it!!! You hear me threadless?! Print this shirt or perish!!!! Bwahahahahaaaaaaa!!!!!

I personally, don't like the boat... It needs to be longer and more, y'know, historically accurate. Not just cuz I'm a nerd that way (Because I am), but it would look way cooler.

I like it, but maybe go with one of the low-left corner placements instead of the current one.

beautiful lighting, but i agree with aidosaur, it would look nice on brown.

Yeah, it seems quite choice as far as funerals go

I feel like there is a lot of empty space at the bottom of the shirt. I don't know how it'd look on a person though. The art is killer though :-D Love the shadows and highlights

Thank you all for the comments. As for the color of the shirt, I declare that nothing is set in stone since i've noticed that threadless will sometimes change it from the original to bettter fit the design

nice. ashame you didnt put as much effort into the waves as you did with the fire and smoke, which look amazing by the way.

The flames and fire are very well done; they take the cake. The style of the boat is a nice contrast. Overall, I like this design, it does well on a horizonless plane.

I'm glad people enjoy the way the smoke and flames are drawn. Also the middle of the bout is drawn the way it is to get the feeling og burning planks of wood.

*LOL* Isnt that the boat from Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker?

Even the clouds are in that style, awesome.

not exactly, but i'm sure it's based on the same cultural influences

hate the colors



love the design

I really enjoy the color concept and the idea to it. The fire and smoke have a cartoony look, but still has character. I give it a 5





yeah!!!

why is it titled viking glory? arnt they BURNING?? hahah. maybe im just missing something. ah well. its still sweet 3

I think it's Viking Glory because a floating pyre is the burial for a hero and the way for a dead viking to make their way to Vallhala. I love the design, but I prefer it on the olive. $5

You forgot that viking boats use planks that are curved, like this:
