This is awesome. This would look super-cool on white or mint. Regardless, $5 all the way.

Really suberb Illustration! The only criticism I have, is that the elephant's left wing is placed wrong. A solid 4!

Hey, thanks for the comments everyone!



The whole thing is indeed hand-drawn by me (so $5 away, phones!) and, yes, I was absolutely doing my very best Albrecht Durer impression.

my money's on the Elephant because, according to the Simpsons, they're carnivorous and swallow their prey whole...



Epic battle!

Umm. I hope Mountain Gnome realised that the wings are on the dragon.



Last I checked, elephants are slightly less known to fly than pigs.

Two of my favorite creatures.



My money's on the elephant because, according to Futurama, they never forget.... to kill!



Even though this design might be ruined by boobs, it's still a 5$ for me.

HAhaha! This is great! I love ridiculous animals fighting, and the Dürer style rendering is beautiful and well done.

lose the text
marrgalo
marrgalo on Apr 28 '08
if you were to keep the text, put elephantum on the side that the elephant is on, and draconis on the side that the dragon is on... is just makes more sense when you read it.

I give you 5 because on this site, real art is underrated and doesn't get what it deserves...the majority of users on this site are amazed and happy to wear stupid pun shirts....for that I am afraid yours will not make it, you are trying to pass art off the the wrong people

Hey, just wanted to once again thank everyone who took the time to comment and score my design.

Bonus amazing factoid!!



Many early scholars, including Pliny the Elder (AD 23-79), actually believed that elephants and dragons were naturally mortal enemies.



"India produces the largest elephants as well as the largest dragons, which are perpetually at war with the elephants. The dragon is of so enormous a size that it is easily able to envelop the elephant in its coils."
