I guess that’s what you have, just a much more vibrant blue.

I was thinking rings like this would be sharp, and if you make them the extremely varied sizes as in your sketch, I think it would look killer.

Definitely improving. I think that the third one is badass. Great design. I also think the logo was well executed. A bit tough to judge a design if you are unfamiliar with the reference material. I noticed a little extra line in that last one. A little oops, perhaps? 😉

That was my first thought too. Personally, I’m thinking that’s just one of those things that look better on paper than in reality. From what I can see of the dragonfly, it looks really nice, though.It’s not suction cups, man. Look up the blue ringed octopus and you’ll see that it is really a stunningly beautiful marking…[Read more]

I like that sketchy look as well, although I have seen similar sketches more stylistically appealing. (Not putting down your friends drawing, and I know you are aware that there is better available). As for the Lily of the Valley concept, a good artist could do the same sketchy type thing and still make it look great.

Wow. Alright, I guess i didn’t check out his tattoo work. I was pretty much amazed by his airbrush stuff. I’m not going to check it out now, I love his art and don’t want to see anything he did that isn’t awesome. Sorry for shootin’ my mouth off. Happens from time to time, but I know people here will call me out. That’s why I love this forum. 🙂

Yeah, sorry. I don’t live in Iceland, so I forget the difference in the cost of somewhat frivolous items there. Gotta be some sort of middle ground here, though.
