Very interesting wings.
Where bunches of cables come to an end?

This is pretty brilliant work.
The facial expression is without compare the best part, very nicely done. The chain-link halo, the fact that the robe is made up of cables, and the fantasy mech wings combined with that masterful expression really helps leave this picture up for interpretation.

The mechanical, structured form of organized religion, the soullessness of certain versions, limitation, there are alot of meanings that could be here.

Very nice work.

wow! this is how all comments should be and since you pretty much hit it on the spot, ill show you the poem i worote that inspired this piece

Mecha

There is a machine inside of my being
Those thought processes deep within me
Uncontrolled, left running mechanically
Gears grinding through self-therapy
Electricity felt, never seen
Wires running through eternity
The will to live beyond humanity
A mind saddened by unreachable immortality
Stuck on the static of reality
The irony of mortal philosophy
Ageing into insanity
The price of lifes lack of longevity.


and thank you so much!!!

That's an excellent poem too!
I hope the tattoo comes out well, where did you want to get it? It seems like the sort of thing that would belong on the chest, maybe on one pec muscle or the other, facing away from the sternum, like it's going away from your heart or something.

I dunno. It's your flesh, after all.

havent decided yet, and i really dont have the money right now lol but you got a good idea there, i probably need to draw a mock up so i can see what it will look like, i have plenty of markers, its just hard drawing upside down lol but, anyways, thanks for the comment on the poem and for the +watch XD oh, and are you military? seems that way lol. i am, been in the army for 3 yrs now, one deployment to afganistan (where i created dex-mecha) infantry man... yuck, lmao

Oooh you're one of those smelly infantry guys. You guys don't get to bathe very often.
I can respect that, I've been an Army contractor for just over a year now, so I've been following you guys' work for a while now to a much closer degree than most people, since I get exposed to briefings and classes that we're supporting.
I'm not in the military right now, but ironically all of the Army guys I work with assume I was because of how I act. I do intend to enlist after I finish my degree, though so I might as well be. I'm planning in enlisting 18X, which is the SOF enlistment option they invented recently, so I'm training alot lately and trying to build my mental toughness too. It comes across in everything I do, apparently.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to it quite a bit. Horse at the gate mentality, you know? The only thing in the training I've seen that makes me cringe is when I'll learn to rip a chicken's head off with a stick or kill a bunny. No I'm not kidding. XD

lol SF huh good luck with that, just had a buddy that went to selection and made it, but didnt get selected :/ we've worked with a lot of SF, especially over seas. they loved us lol. myself, im not big on the military, im just doin my 4 yrs and moving on to better things. its not too bad being infantry, though. mmost of the time we dont do anything, but when we do have something to do its balls to the wall. i've been a SAW gunner for the past 3 yrs as well, and as much as i hate carrying that thing, i love shooting it. during afgan i always was on top of the truck, so it wasnt too awful, but the heat was killer. i actually passed out from heat exhaustion one day because i was up there for 16 hours straight but, like i said, good luck with 18x cause if u wanna do cool shit, thats the job to have and nice to meet ya!
