If you drew that, your freaking awesome. Like I always say "If you're gonna draw a samurai, then draw a SAMURAI!"

Well, no.. I don't always say that.

Great artwork, and the shirt color perfectly matches the design. 5$

If you drew that, that's pretty nice, I think I'd buy it.
slaterock
   slaterock on Jul 24 '06
Yeah, this is really a wicked illustration... I'm kinda torqued at all the "did you draw that?" comments. I think most of the legitimate artists on threadless "drew" all of the designs initially, then used illustrator to give it a clean look.

Other than that, really tight man!
jestorey
jestorey on Jul 25 '06
absolutely freaking stunning!

i sincerely hope this wins, but the million dollar question on my mind is...what will this beautiful rendering look like after 4 coats of ink are slapped together on some cotton? if anything get about 1000 of these printed on some nice cardstock...then send them out to us.

man i wish i could draw like that....damn.

This design was stolen from the Frank Miller comic "Lone Wolf and Cub." Zero, you hack!
susuwatari
   susuwatari on Jul 28 '06
Thank you all.
I really appreciate your comments and suggestions.

Echofive :

I always though that Lone Wolf and cub was a work by Goseki Kojimka and Kazuo Koike. Where does Frank Miller come from ??? Any ways if you are going to attack people, please at least back it up with something. Not insults.

I haven't read Lone Wolf an cub yet. So please why don't you send it to me. I'm sure I'll enjoy the read...
grayehound
   grayehound on Jul 28 '06
dunno what echofive is talking about. i've read pretty much everything miller did and there is one image in lone wolf that is similar, but hardly could be considered a hack job. besides, you have a digital painting version on your site don't you?

i'm not sure that this is a guaranteed print, but it certainly did well enough to get noticed and there is no doubt it is one of (if not THE) best pieces of drawing this site has ever seen. the only thing that holds it back is the concept isn't that creative. very, very nice work
susuwatari
   susuwatari on Jul 28 '06
Thanks a lot grayehound.
I agree on the concept part. I've seen your designs and I know what you mean. "fleeing maturity" is just awesome.

People really need to realize just dope samurais are. And the fact that there are two on a Shirt is like...Killing a V of geese with one stone. I vote this shirt the shit. (sugar honey iced tea).

frank miller did some covers for the initial translation of lone wolf and cub. when the entire 28 volumes were released by dark horse, the old miller covers were used and new ones were also commissioned.

it's a freaking sweet manga. i totally recommend it to anyone who digs samurai.

also this shirt is totally cool.

i'd get this only if the hand positioning for both samurai were right-handed. the sheaths are on their left so it's clear to see that they're rightys but they're holding the swords as leftys!

I am glad they reprinted. The only thing I don't like is that they didn't put it on a khaki shirt and I like the design off center. In other words;
I love the way you designed it and not the way it is for sale, but I will still buy a reprint.
