Photoshop Battle: Vikings

[ghost]

In this battle, the main element of all art submissions must be vikings. it can be ships, warriors, princess', castles.. whatever, so long as it is in some way related to vikings and their era.

The 7 Rules:

1. All images can be any size the artist chooses, within site dimensions.
2. All posters must contain an element, theme, or idea from the previous poster
3. There is no sharing of PSD's
4. There are 3 players allowed (myself and 2 others)
5. Turns last a total of 48hrs, if a post is not made within 48hrs the artist will be skipped.
6. The battle is 4 rounds.
7. The battle will be put to a vote after its over and the winner will be decided by the community.

*the turn order will be based on whomever responds first - with myself going first.

*edited to include turn order:

OK, I will play, but I m not really sure how this works.

OK, I will play, but I m not really sure how this works.

basically...
you follow the rules, you need to pull an element from the previous players submission.. it can be something minuscule.. a color, text, and image, an idea.. then the next person goes, doing the same.. and so on, until all rounds are completed.

then we put it to a vote and the community votes a winner.

ghost you go first, i can go last or something. too busy tonight.

 

[ghost]

that works out, cause i'm actually just finishing mine.. was going to add something to it from one of yours.. but since i'm going first, i don't need to worry about that..

will update this post with the image when i am finished.

Your "poster" is amazing Ghost, I like it very much. Turquoise is my favorite color, and so that is what I chose as my reference.

you went too far! this has nothing to do with vikings...
in my previous image, i have a viking war ship ghosted into the right/left side...
you took my cute kid out.. but.. he has nothing to do with vikings.

i suppose we can give you a chance to add a viking element... since this is your first battle.
