I’ve been assigned the laborous task of designing my boyfriend’s tattoo. I want to do him a favor by getting as much feedback on it as possible before he gets it done. So..
It’ll be on his back, with the hand reaching up over his shoulder. We’re still debating on what should go inside the tear. We were thinking just some creepy mist coming out, but if anyone can think of something better that would be awesome. Also, how does the arm/hand look? It’s gotta be pretty realistic so critique is much encouraged. I’ve never really drawn anything skeletal before, so I can’t judge it that well myself.
Thanks a bunchh.
I don’t know what’s bothering me about it, but there’s something ‘off’ with that arm. I really can’t place the exact spot. It all looks a bit… thin. (And yes, I do realize it’s bones and missing all the muscles and flesh and whatnot :))
As for that tear, if that is going to be a full backpiece it’s going to need a massive amount of detail, and mist would just ruin it.
If its going on his back then you should try to make it realistic. Would see parts of spine and ribs with some torn muscle. Try to aviod adding too much blood, that always ruins a tat for me with dripping blood and stuff like that.
The arm should be actual size and take up most of the tear, it will look stupid if you do a scaled down version of the arm.
let us know what size its gonna be. you dont wanna be too detailed unless you want the details to run together and the tattoo look “muddy” after it heals. Or unless you get an artist that can work very very small detail and still keep it crisp. Not too many of those around. Post up some updates. 🙂
