So I asked Dan If he would mind been a 'Guinea pig' , so to speak, and he was more than happy to help, So Thank you very much Mr. Morris. I hope you enjoy your new tattoo. :)
I outlined this piece with a 03 round liner, as I wanted a bit of depth to the outline, but not so much that it over powered the design, There as a fair bit of fine detail to be added, so I needed to find the right Balance. I used a 01 round liner for the more delicate bits, Such as the stitchs, and the rips in the dress.
For the colour I used a 05 and a 07 round shader, Using the 05RS to add highlights to certain areas.
I found it easier to work with round shaders rather than flats, as this design is about 8 Inches tall and many of the flat needles would not have coloured so flawlessly.
The original design is drawn by myself. And It Is part of my 'Pin-Up' collection. I was extremely proud of her, And so I wanted to display her on skin the second I put the pencil down. However due to the nature of the drawing I knew there were very limited people that would have her tattooed. Thankfully Dan is that 1% who would!! :)
Here Is My Original Drawing.
And this is the finished product, On Dan's Leg.
