Christine ARDRON's Tattoo. (Griffin.)

Christine Is a good friend of mine and also the writer of a set of books called The Predgarians. The symbol for the Predgarian Order in her book's is a Griffin.
So It's hardly surprising when she call on me to Tattoo a Griffin for her.

It was quite a tiring but fun project to work on as the detailing was IMMENSE!
I used a 03 round liner for most of the outline, Switching to a 01 Round Liner for the Intricate details Such as the feathers, and tufts of fur. :)












This Is the Griffin Christine Picked From My Tattoo SourceBook.
Due to the lack of carbon paper, And abundance of my own confidence, We decided to free-hand draw this piece onto Christine's Arm, With a little help from an artist friend of mine, Mark.
















This is the head & Chest of the Griffin, It spans the whole width of Christine's Forearm And is yet to be coloured and shaded as we can't quite decided on a nice enough green ... :)












And this is the rest of the Griffin, I do apologize for the quality of the pictures but I was without my usual photographer, Carl Gitsham, And had to take these with the only available camera - My phone!
I look forward to the colour and shading on this piece and getting some better pictures!! :)
