I'm thinking about creating a woad design incorporating some of this.  Something like   with the bear's head and neck on the forehead, like the eye circle was his shoulder.  I'll definitely link to you if/when I post a pic.

Hi, May I use this as part of an SCA scroll for someone who's device is a bear? It's a private work of art and will probably not be seen outside our group.

Thanks,

By all means, go right ahead! As long as it is for non-profit use.

I do request two things from anyone considering to use my artwork. Because my artwork is my income I would like to ask anyone who wants to use a certain image for non-profit use to send me a wee donation. This can be whatever amount you feel fit, a small payment to support the artist. The second thing I ask is if people could send me a picture of the finished result, as I do love seeing the finished result!

May I use this figure as part of an SCA scroll that will be given to an individual who's device is a bear? It may be published on the SCA website as well. I can change it up or something and put different knot work inside if using the exact image would be inappropriate.

we would love to use this as a logo for our Bagua kung fu group. Is this ok with you? i can put a link to your work on our website, when we get it running.

Considering this was a personal tattoo commission for someone I'd rather you didn't. However, I am open for logo commissions should you wish for something unique to your Bagua club

If you don't mind, I'd like to use this as a reference for a project I'm doing?

I'm hoping to gather enough skill to create my own "illuminated text" out of a conlang script I've created and the culture I've created for a fictional universe. It's a big project, but I think I can do it, and I need a bear image in knotwork.. this'd be perfect if you don't mind me borrowing it? I'll linky of course.

As long as it's for personal and non-profit use only I'm okay with it And, as you already suggested, a link back would be much appreciated, plus a wee note when you're finished as I'd love to see the result! ^.^

:3 Sweet! I'd do that anyway, I don't want to take credit when it belongs elsewhere. :3

I found this on the internet a long time ago while searching for a tattoo! Are you the original artist? I have no tattoos at the moment, but I am seriously thinking about getting a U.V. tattoo. I would love this pic, it has meaning in both ethnicity and animal

Illahie In reply to Derek1979 [2010-04-11 08:05:00 +0000 UTC]

I am the original artist indeed And I'd be honoured with such a tribute, and would love to see pictures of the finished result. But do read the 'rules' about using my work for personal non-profit use; [link]

do you first draw the creature itself, and once you've got the satifactory outline, then create the knotted interior?

In the case of the bear I did do it like that yes

would you mind if i possibly got this as a tattoo? my stepfather just passed away and we were very close and he loved bears and celtic knots so i want to get something that would remind me of him

Illahie In reply to idunnoshutup [2007-02-08 18:16:02 +0000 UTC]

No worries, as long as you tell the tattoo artist that it's a one time onl thing, and he/she is not to make further tattoos of it..

And I'd love a picture of the finished result if you wouldn't mind too much

idunnoshutup In reply to Illahie [2007-02-08 18:50:59 +0000 UTC]

of course you would get a picture of it if i do get it done, it might be awhile before i decide though
