Phoenix Shoulder in Color Tattoo

Summary:

Bad Ass Phoenix for shoulder to elbow

Description:

I would like a Phoenix from my shoulder to about the elbow in size.  Warm colors for the firey effect.

I'm open to ideas though something with a sword or Yin Yang integrated into it is my first idea.  Although it doesn't need to have either of those if the Phoenix itself is good. 

I'd like it to be more realistic as opposed to tribal or symbol style.

Ok, perhaps some more guidance...  I am open to different ideas other than these but here's my thoughts.

#1 - Dangerous looking.  Like literally rising from fire or posing in flight. Doesn't need to look evil but I'd like the phoenix to look more threatening than peaceful and thin.

#2 - Mythic appearance as well.  By this I mean it's not just another bird.  Give it a presence like no one has ever seen something like it before.

#3 - Looking in any direction it doesn't matter too much.

#4 - Fire is welcome :)

None of these are manditory but it's just to give more of an idea of what I'd be looking for.

Hope it helps
