Description The first of some tattoos I'm designing for . The glyphs on it are Elvish. Around the outside it reads: "Bide the Wiccan Laws ye must, in Perfect Love and Perfect Trust. Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill: 'An' it harm none, do what ye will.' Blessed be." On the star, it says: "Keep pure your highest ideal, strive ever towards it; let naught stop you or turn you aside, for mine is the secret door which opens upon the door of youth. Live and let live, fairly take and fairly give."

Forgive me for the crappy photo, but it's too big for my scanner and the lighting in my room is really bad. I'm hoping to get a better photo soon, or edit the colours on the computer. I also might be adding vines and things to it, since the pentagram represents the unity of Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit. I don't know whether to colour it or have it in black-and-white, so I'm just going to leave it like this for a while.

Comments welcomed!

Thanks! I'm glad the fire turned out well...it was pretty hard to draw it without it looking cheesy or cartoony. :/

That looks cool! I think vines on it would look cool, and you should leave in in B&W for now and see what happens.

I could definitely see it as a great black and white tatoo.
Though, for the words to be seen, it might have to be kinda big. Hmmm... maybe not. i have no concept of size.

I do like the design though. It's nice.

Yeah, that was what I was afraid of...I might take the words off of it for the actual tattoo.

Thank you!

Actually, I think it looks better black and white. I maybe if you photoshop the color of the paper to make it look really old and stained as if it was kept in a safe place by a coven. Just a thought.

Hmm, now there's a thought...I might try that. I'm thinking of making two versions of this: a simpler one to use as the actual tattoo, and a more jazzed-up "deviation" version.

Cool. I can't wait to see the tattoo version.
