Description
Hi! Long time no see!I have been a bit busy with so many things (even one accident to my right hand) but now I'm trying to get back to everything!
And I wanted to show you the other comission I have been working on in the last weeks: another tattoo!
I have to say that I feel a bit rusty when I have to design from the scratch or even I have been given a picture of another artist as a "lead" to follow... and at the end it's me trying to make the most different and original one that I can so I feel kinda pressure but I like it at the same time xD it's challenging!
So that way I did my research about samurais masks and helmets... and I decided to come back to my skulls I didn't draw since college... and I loved doing it! So with something I was really good at I could make my point with this design, and the costumer looooved it! Then I digitalized it with Illustrator (first time!) in order to help the tattoo artist to adapt it to his needs.
Anyway, in about 3 weeks time he will get it done in his arm and I'll be able to show it to you all :3
Such an honor!!
So stay tunned
PS: And thanks if you read till here!!!
Media: Graphite and fine marker
Size: Kind of A3
Time: 5h Drawing + around 5h Digitalisation

I'm so sorry! I though I already answered to this comment! T_T Thanks a lot for that! Actually the helmet was the most difficult part of this design because I don't know much about the samurai style (I just studied the Art on the kimonos) and I admit that I had a lack of information ... so I had to do a lot of research! The skulls by the other hand ... love making them since college
