About my design

by velocipedicist
Wouldn't it be great to have a raven friend who would fly along with you as you rode your bike and guard it for you while it's parked on the sidewalk so you didn't have to lock it up?



I like to draw stuff, especially bicycles and other creatures.

It's really awesome, but the missing spokes kind of bother me... It's a little disconcerting.

This is an amazing illustration, the detail is... wow. Overall a great composition too, subtle use of color.



I really like this, nice work.

I do have a raven, and your illustration captures its likeness EXACTLY.



But seriously, this is beautiful and I want to hang it on my wall and my body.

I second the green idea. I'd buy it on green. I'd also prefer spokes and no leaves or more muted leaves, but I love it regardless.

don't ravens have something to do with death?

wow...just...wow!



Your drawing skills are impressive indeed!



I really like the missing spokes as well.



and again...wow!

I think the leaves complement the bike illustration and the contrast brings it out. Spokes would detract from the design - especially on the back wheel. I'm buying this shirt as soon as it hits the store! $5

Oh, I like this. Reminds me of Edgar Allen Poe - I guess because of the raven. But, a definite buy!

Yeah that would be great, they're far more menacing when they're sqwarking at you than dogs are. Beautiful pencil shading, technically suburb.
