intro wrote:i've been wanting a semi-specific tattoo for a very long time, but every time i go to design it, i worry that i'll no longer enjoy it once my style changes. so, i'd prefer to have someone else design it. i'm looking for a medium-complexity tattoo to be inked on my left forearm. read below for the design. prize will of course be given even if i wimp out or don't find what i'm looking for.
design description wrote:what i'm looking for is an opossum skull (top only, no bottom jaw), surrounded by various plants/flowers/mushrooms/etc. the exact plant life isn't decided, so that's up to the artist. can be overlapping with the skull, or remain in the background. no color or gradual shading (stipple/line shading is a maybe). the final design will be approximately 2" by 3-4", so keep that in mind when designing complexity. i don't want anything too simplistic, but i also don't want something so complex that it's difficult to distinguish years from now when the lines bleed/fade. plant size should be realistic compared to the skull.
inspiration wrote:below are some tattoo designs i really like.
this artist • plants/line size • skull/plants • designs • skull
rules/guidelines wrote:• no color/shading (only black lines)
• off-oekaki designs are perfectly alright
• you don't need to use the base, just had to comply with oekaki rules
• you must be okay with me altering/editing/adding to the design etc.
• please use references for the opossum skull! i want it to be accurate
• the winner may not use the designs elsewhere, other than to share their work (other entries are free to do as they wish)
