Three Wolf Moon - The Improved Sketch Version

So I've got a (somewhat) new T-shirt design concept to share...but this might need a little backstory.

See, I like wolves. And the moon is pretty cool. However, this shirt utilizes those two things with admirable yet terribly unfortunate reckless abandon.

Complemented nicely by a well-groomed mullet.

It's been over four years now--that thing is damn near internet-legendary for its incredible density of awfulness, and it has spawned hundreds of witty snark-laden Amazon reviews.

A thing of beauty.

The artwork itself isn't bad--it just looks very...garish, on clothing. Yeah, that would probably be a good word. Garish. Excessive. Kitschy perhaps. But wolves deserve a better shirt, damn it! And thus, I improved upon the original:

Holy crap! Look at that detail!

Now this version can appeal to most everyone: the young, the old (?), the hipster, the "hipster", the minimalist, the geek, the cool person, the normal person, you, me, he, she, it. It's simple and sketchy and cartoony and makes fun of what it is and what inspired it.

So what I'd like from you guys, assuming people are reading this, is feedback. Let me know if you like this or not, what you think of it, or give any constructive criticism. Again, it would be seriously helpful--I'm not sure if this will become a legit shirt, but depending on the direction of your honest responses, it might.
