Dragons are sweet, but this needs work. 2.

This goes for everybody... learn photoshop and/or illustrator (or hell, you can illustrate in flash)... get pretty damn competent at them, THEN submit.

But you can't have enough dragons, honestly... dragons are the new talking fruit.

The rod that holds up the road sign should be black and then the background of the drawing white.
It'd look perfect then, it just looks out of place because the sign's isn't part of the style of the background, but the rod holding the sign is in the background's style? It blends in, yet distracts.

$5 if it's changed.

My friend would kill for this shirt... $5. But I'd say keep it the way it is - I like the background in white.

I want a older model sedan stopped on the road with the driver sticking his head out of the window looking up.

jhnmdws is on to something i think.
background needs work, stick with it though, this is a winner.

the person that the dragon caught...his head is falling off. and the yellow edging on the sign isnt uniform. and some colors could get switched around. but i like the idea. i give you a 4

superstarstack on Jun 14 '06
ps - just tweak it a little

this is a great idea...spend some more time with it. the outline landscape is cool though. i like the car idea, but with the roof ripped off and no one inside!

actually i looked and that's how the heads are on the pedestrian signs. i was just going with that.

and i realize the sign isn't uniform on the detail, but that's cause i was a little careless on using the lasso tool on photoshop.

here's a better picture of the sign: http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h90/binaryblade/dragonsign1.jpg

thanks for all the comments though everyone.

when in the indeterminate future i do get to use illustrator, i'm gonna vectorize it, and hopefully the quality will be a little better.

thanks also for the ideas. i'll see if i can do anything for that. ^^

i like it, but I'd probably like it more if it were just the sign, without the background stuff, but that's just me

deathdrinkscoffee- that's what i had the first time i submitted this, and threadless rejected it. :/

Really promising idea, I'd love a bit more 'post dragon carnage' to the background. Looking forward to your next version. 4 for now

I made a couple signs like this for one of my friends one year. (There was a dragon XING and a Gollum XING, heh.)

Anyway, my suggestions for when you get around to vectorising:

Simplify the dragon! Make it more like the human--smooth lines. Maybe "disembody" the wings, much like the human's head.

Make the background less boxy. Bring the road lines further down in front so they break the box look.

If you're bored enough to make an alternate version, try it with the signpost broken, and play around with making the edge of the sign look a bit toasted.

holy crap. I love it. I think it should be on another color though.

It's perfect!
Drawing is still better than vectorising , careful for not overdosing on PS and vectors...
I like the emptiness in the road and that kind of lines...it takes me to the gloomy lands of the dragons...just get the yellow a little foggier...I'd buy it anyway

TedwardRoberts on Jun 17 '06
I love the inclusion of the landscape behind the sign, but, as other's have said, there's not really any suggestion of the carnage that the sign suggests in the landscape.

5 anyway, because dragons are sexy

i heart dragons!

as for this particular design, i would like it better if the dragon sexier and if the background was more ominous with some mountains, volcanos, corpses, a bush on fire or something...
