BadAss SCUBA Tat

Summary:

Cool, underwater SCUBA scene . . . can you do it?

Description:

This will go on my left arm, from the shoulder down to the upper bicep, wrapped around a little - about a quarter sleeve.

I'm looking for a cool, badass version scuba scene that's not bright or cartoony.  Something that includes at least diver and shark (has to have a shark) and some sort of underwater topography/coral - along with depictions of any other marine life that fits and blends well into the overall scene - eel, ray, barracuda, turtle, etc.  No "cute" turtles or dolphins please - they have their place, just not with this.  Would like rays of sun coming through the water in the background (check out any of the "Blue Hole" dives).

Will try and upload pictures of a couple of my favorite dive sites and marine life for inspiration.

I find that the more realistic attempts at depicting something like this tend to fall somewhat short, so am open to a tribal type rendering - as long as it comes together into on overall complete scene.

Am thinking nothing in the way of coloring...just shading...maybe just a little blues/greens...but not bright.

I am amazed by the huge amount of talent on this site, so have high hopes that you all will blow me away with your ideas.  Good luck.
