I actually like the one with color more surprisingly... thanks for letting me compare

Black and White

September 6 2010 11:09pm

I photoshopped my design to show you what it would look like with less color. If you like it that way, I could re-draw the picture in colored pencil again for you if you choose it. Just let me know what you'd like :-)

I think you nailed it with the creativity and fullness of a sleeve, there is a lil too much color in it than what i originally wanted, maybe if you could leave a lil color out and contrast it together with the colors u leave in just so i could compare a little bit

i like it just the way it is, but if u could do something else with the banner maybe tie it in more idk, im not a big fan of that

#5961 :)

September 6 2010 5:05pm

I`m glad that You like my pattern too...:)
Do You want me to change something in that tattoo - to make it better?
I can do It without the wall :)

regards!

Yay! 5931

September 6 2010 2:03pm

I'm glad you like it :-) I drew it in colored pencil on beige paper so you can see what it will look like on your skin. Also, since it is life-sized, I was able to wrap it around a friend's arm and see exactly how it fits. I made sure the lilies will be on your forearm and wrist, like you wanted. The colors I added could be easily left out if it seems too bright. I tried to show the meeting of the light of the sun and moon in a graffiti kind of style so it would go with your pre-existing tattoo.

money and tattoo art

Its not just an outline on tracing paper. its an original piece of art. many of the things that are submitted here are real pieces of art worthy of framing ,not just some lines on crummy paper. And then there are others, Ill leave it at that. lol

He also isnt being charged $330 thats how much he chose to pay.

money is no issue, but thank you for the concern... I'm a tattoo guy but im not putting anything on my skin that isn't quality work. To be honest if I don't see something on here that I 100% love, it's not going on my skin

the rule is nothing new to a point on your wrist which i outlined on one of the pics i submitted... anything new has to be covered with your combat uniform and class a's

FallingApartArt

Full sleeve?

August 30 2010 4:26pm

I noticed the one you liked the most is a full sleeve-is that what you're looking for? I thought the rule was you couldn't get anything new that wasn't coverable by your PT clothes (Army at least). Can you do a full sleeve?

labels on my sketch

August 28 2010 6:29pm

I wrote 'shoulder' and 'wrist' to give you the directions of the layout. The top of the tattoo would be right below your inside armpit.

Uploaded sketch

August 28 2010 3:24pm

So I used my arm for a layout (I have a tattoo in my inner bicep, so I used that for sizing). I left a gap between the "Jean" banner and the tiger lilly petal for your ditch (pretty sensitive area). If you like it, I'll do the ink outline. Thanks!

August 28 2010 1:24am

Yes your correct sorry for the confusion.. yes youve got everything one bigger than the other.. two stems... not too much color, and any other ideas to fill other space is upto your discretion...

August 28 2010 12:53am

alissas the stem would be starting at the wrist and the flowers at the bicep.

i see

August 28 2010 12:52am

so one bigger then the other. on the same stem. realistic, not to much color (full color but not vibrant?). clouds to go with your old tats.

Im just confused about the orientation of the piece.you say its upside down but you want the stem to start at the bicep and go down your wrist, so toasts drawing would be facing the right way. or am I miss understanding you? Your drawing is also the same direction as toasts drawing.. Just dont want to start anything untill I am sure of everything. but things can always be flipped digitally if i do draw it the wrong way.

bsmith8918 Contest Holder

@artncoffee

August 28 2010 12:48am

i guess it doesnt matter how you draw it it can be flipped.. alissa's is what i thought is going towards the wrist

August 28 2010 12:45am

oh nevermind i see you commented.. but his design the flower is going towards the wrist. Im a tad confused. are you saying its to big?? Like to long??

just trying to pic important info out of all your feedback.

bsmith8918 Contest Holder

@artncoffee

August 28 2010 12:45am

it is upside down and the two flowers are not intersecting.. i want two diff flowers with two dff stems interescting. the one stem starting at my bicep going to my forearm, the other much smaller starting on my forearm intersecting and meeting the other flower on the opposite side of my forearm

toasts pic

August 28 2010 12:42am

can you please give a reason as to why you dont like toasts piece much? its very nice and your feedback on that will help us all get alittle more info on what you want.

i have no idea how to add more photos to the description

photos

August 27 2010 6:37pm

I know there are photos in the description but they arent great ones for proper placement to fit in with your other tats. But I will work with what has been provided..

bsmith8918 Contest Holder

@artncoffee

August 27 2010 4:30pm

there are pics of my arm in the description.... and i want everything to be drawn by you guys... i like the tattoo artist to have to just put it on... also i was kinding of thinking somehow maybe a sun and moon colliding with something idk im not a very creative person myself

tats

August 27 2010 3:46am

If possible can you get someone to take pics of your arm? so we can try and properly place the design.

Do you want us to do the clouds or leave that to the tat artist? (again photos will help placement of those).

are you opposed to a banner?

Hey let me know if this is too much.

August 26 2010 1:33pm

Or if you want me to add more detail? Maybe the dots? let me know =))
This is fun.

You got completely the right idea, and the only bible verse i enjoy is i walk through the valley ofthe shadow of death.. Thanks.

Lily Orientation

August 26 2010 1:08pm

Hello,

From your arm photos it appears that you would like the lilies facing down, flower buds toward your hand, stem toward your arm pit. Is that right? And, it looks like you want the longest lily to wrap onto the front of your forearm. Let me know if that is the right orientation.

Also, was there any saying, song lyric, or bible verse you associate with your grandmother? Or are you happy with only her name? I'm thinking of ways to fill the space on the inside of your upper arm where the stems will go.

Thanks,
Carrie

August 26 2010 12:40am

yes in one of the pictures of my arm you can see clouds from my other tattoo on this arm and that would be the type of clouds i want

also

August 26 2010 12:03am
