Step One to Finale

So now that I had the idea for my tattoo, I had to shape him into exactly how I wanted him.

With the Windstone logo, I liked the tribal outline look. But of course, it had to be a dragon, so I sketched a bit and changed the griffen into a dragon.



So I brought the sketch to Mark, the tattooist, and it gave him the idea of what I wanted. Obviously I didn't want my crappy drawing on my body, so I gave him his artistic talent to do whatever to it. He's done many dragons before and produced this little guy. I was so amazed at how cool he looked, much more realistic. I thought he was perfect.



So he was inked onto my body and I loved him. But after a month or so, his face was looking a little faded, probably from my bra constantly rubbing him. So I went in for a touch up (which are free). But I ended up having him do more detail and shading on Nevin. Now he was better than ever: more realistic, 3D, and kinda gothic.



So currently, this is my guy on my shoulder. I hope to get more shading done and maybe colored in. When I get the money...
