Lion & lotus flower...it's still healing up, as I got it just a week ago. The lion stands for what I wanna name my first son(Leo) and the lotus is my favorite flower.

Booker- All caps if you havent got it already New Wave- That is pretty tight man Newish addition, The Poet From Hell by Charles Broson: Thanks man. I'm a big fan of the movie and the man himself so I decided to get something he actually drew. The banner itself was just an add on. The artist used a thinner needle which made it sting a bit more, but I dig it. Looks sick man!

I'm getting a new tattoo in the new year. A cat that I had most of my life died last year, and he had an hourglass type marking on his nose. I thought as a not-so-obvious tribute to him, I could get an hourglass with angel wings with shading around it. Here are a couple of ideas I put together in Photoshop, and will hopefully be getting a friend to draw up a design for me soon. It will be on my forearm and be about 5-6 inches long.

I'm digging the second one of the most out of those.

yep, i'd go with the second myself. particularly because it's two separate pieces together instead of one large conjoined image.

I'm confused though, as on my screen the 2nd one is the most conjoined of the three designs. Unless you mean the third pic, with the the second design technically.

Personally, I like the first design the most with the hourglass and wings being separate pieces. Just feels less busy to me, if that makes sense at all.

Personally I like the 2nd design the most. The 3rd design looks feminine to me.

Yeah it all makes sense, and now i look at it, the last one is a bit feminine. I like how the hourglass is the vocal point in the first two.

I revised them a bit. Also my partner suggest I could add something to the bottom to balance out the top-heaviness of it. So I was thinking of smoke/flame-like shading that the main design will be rising out of.

Hmm. Personally I like the smoke version. Although it really all depends on what you want man. ;D

Either one will have the smoke, I was just playing with wing placement in the first one. I think after Christmas, I shall visit the shop and book it in. I will talk with the artist about the best shaping, placement and shading. Can't wait, tbh.

Really digging the new design. I'd go with the smoke around it.

Don't worry about the top being wider than the bottom if it's going on your forearm. Your forearm is wider at the elbow end than it is at the wrist end anyway, so it will be a natural fit. You want it to stay within muscle lines so that it looks right.
