Hey... planning on getting a tattoo done Tuesday.

Here's the original:

My girl (who's an artist) drew this over the original:

http://forums.steroid.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=65487&stc=1&d=11437***28


The concept is an abstract 'all-seeing-eye" merged into the background.

What do you guys think?

If it's possible to make it look 'cleaner'.. (i.e. more detailed..)could someone dowload the original and work their magic?

If possible could some one, working with the concept of an 'all-seeing-eye' like i'd like, come up with a new design?

Thanks

How about this design took me like 5 min. But tell me if you like it and i will finish filling it in...

I see where you're going with it :)

Looks cool... but i want any additions to the tatt to be in the background: as a back drop to the sun... not an extension of it.

I like how you extended the flames on the sun by the way (minus the eyes)..you've got mad talent.

If you don't mind.. would you finish filling it out at some point?

Hey Ark22 - what medium did you use for those examples? I like the colors you are getting - real rich. I recently started gettnig back into pastels...

Good luck on the tat Nark - I got a guy having me draw up a phoenix for him...

Here you go bro two Sketches. Im working on two more that are bit more interesting if you can wait though...

The first especially is really cool.

Thanks for your time man.. very much appreciated.

I was supposed to go get the tatt yesterday morning.. but i postponed it.

Gonna wait and see what else you come up with :thumbsup:

Hey... could you do something a bit more geometric? less curvy i mean.. thanks

I think angles would be better than curves on my skin tone especially. I'm dark.. i think that some detail would be lost with the curvier designs.

minus the pyramid.. and with the 'eye' smaller.

The sun in the middle.. which i want to be the pupil of the eye will be prominent like the design in the first post

Damn i wish i could draw lol :(

Thanks NotSmall.

Nark, I got this idea from an egyptian hieroglyph, it's a bit clumsy and lopsided though, I'm just trying to throw some ideas out so we can narrow in on what you want...

Yo, Nark, why not add some colors in you tat, i see a lot of brothers, with black or dark grey tats, and i cant tell what it is, is it because of the darker skin ? / They got some great colors out now, i just got a pair of eyes on my back, with aqua eyeballs, but im a white boy.. well good luck anyway..Now that i think about it you commented on my tat in this pictire furom !!!

Ark22
05-08-2006, 03:13 PM
I took the eye idea and how you wanted geometric shapes because in your skin type you cant see detail. Also you didnt want so much curviness

So here they are...

05-08-2006, 03:26 PM
Hmm.... Nark... there any way you can "unblacken"?

haha, jokes bro, I am just playin.

Looks like you got some good stuff to work with though!
