Sketched up a tattoo for my girlfriend

She said she wanted to get a set of angel wings on her shoulder blades with revolvers incorporated into them. She asked me to come up with a sketch and this is what I came up with. What do yall think?

i think it will resemble a furry snake creature when she gets older and more.. stretchy? good drawing though,

looks good

**fbod91** · 11-02-2009, 06:51 PM

Picture not working?

definitely like the concept, however, for my two cents, I would shorten the barrel a bit and elongate the wings, give it more of the revolver coming out of the wings, having been hidden there, rather than the wings being the handle of the revolver.....

also, try to leave the edges of the wings, like the outlining, clean and solid, but leave the inside as is, feathery and disorderly

just giving you my ideas, but I definitely like the incorporation of the the wings and revolver

thanks for the tips. It was a quick 15 minute sketch, I'll redraw it and see what happens

**tallnick** · 11-02-2009, 07:19 PM

I thought is was fire before I read the description. There needs to be more conformity between all the feathers.

Ssibly. It's just a rough sketch

**tallnick** · 11-02-2009, 07:49 PM

make sure she doesnt put it in an area where its going to start sagging in the next 5 years.. when she plumps up..

**fbod91** · 11-02-2009, 07:53 PM

It would go on her upper back. There will be 2 of the one in each side.
Here's another one I just did, giving it a more feathery look and moving the gun over some. I learned I can not draw a handle of a gun to save my life but here it is

ok its getting better!

**fbod91** · 11-02-2009, 08:00 PM

This is my first time sketching a tattoo btw

**SajoR** · 11-02-2009, 09:18 PM

hmmm...I do like the concept of the second one better than the first one, I will admit....and I do agree with you, the handle could use some work lol but it's not bad at all for being a first-timer at a tattoo

I can't draw for shit but I do like it...try refining it more and more and keep posting, im sure people will keep giving tips or advice, ignore the negativity

**silverWS6** · 11-02-2009, 09:36 PM

Looks pretty sweet, I like the second one better and i like the smoke coming out of the barrel on the first one too
