Viking 0 #1 January 27, 2006 I'v been thinking about getting a tattoo for a couple years now but i could never find the right design that I loved. well tonight i found it. I didn't want a standard bird like off the hood of a trans-am. I wanted it to be somewhat obscure. I found a cool tribal design that kinda looks like a pair of wings but with a few bird like cues. I also wanted it to look like it was sketched right on my skin. So i took the image into photoshop and inverted the colors and whited out and then smudged it up around the edges. Its kinda hard to do in photoshop but i want all the black sections to be shaded instead of jet black so there is more to look at. Plus i put the BSBD in there. I'm planning on putting it accross my shoulders and the tail going down my spine.

yamtx73 0 #4 January 27, 2006 QuoteOMG - that's a lot of black. Hope you like pain! :) The black can be done with a color needle instead of an outline needle... it goes faster that way, but on the spine is definitely going to be painful...The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

livendive 8 #12 January 27, 2006 I decided last year to get a tat for my 10th year in sport, but still haven't found anyone to draw it for me. One person started, but then never got back to me.

Viking 0 #13 January 27, 2006 I was thinking about it last night before i went to bed and now i'm wondering how it would look back in positive but still have all the solid black spaces shaded to look like clouds.I swear you must have footprints on the back of your helmet - chicagoskydiver My God has a bigger dick than your god -George Carlin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
labrys 0 #14 January 27, 2006 That's a sweet design. I've picked this one for my 7th. The flash is heavily watermarked on the website but the basics are clear, I hope. This is one of the best phoenix designs I've seen: http://www.tattoonow.com/Tattoo-Designs/Color/item838.htmlOwned by Remi #? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Viking 0 #15 January 27, 2006 QuoteMy favorite question I ever saw posted on tattoo threads in dropzone.com .... "And what tribe are you from?" didn't see this one. My response would be Scandanavian/Norwegian. Just b/c its tribal doesn't mean pacific islander or African. Edit.

GravityGirl 0 #19 January 27, 2006 Grue, I could work that design for you and possibly put some symbolic elements in there. An obvious one would be in the center and make that into a VERY SUBTLE closing pin. Not just a big "Hi, I'm another damned closing pin." Lemme know. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Peace and Blue Skies!
