Aye, if the breakage could be more rugged that'd be nice.


Fix the leg.


And make it less cartoony for the tattoo artist to be able to go over it. :o


Can't think of anything else...

Make the bells dented


I think I'm going to redo the whole design with the issues you brought up in mind, using the old one as a basis.
Just for reiteration:

- describe the damage to the exterior of the clock (dented bells, bent up legs)
- have the glass look more realistically broken
- have the design style more realistic in general (thinner outlines, more detailed painting)
- move the leg into its proper position on the clock

Are the above points all right?

Well honestly it was fun.
Dammit nethog why'd you have to punch the screen

Yes, perfect :)

Sweet. Here's another very rough sketch for you, let me know if it's all good:

Yeah, I also made the banner more rugged, it looked odd to me having it totally perfect in comparison to the clock. If you don't like the idea, let me know, too.

Tophius you can draw :o

<3 it so far

Okay, painting's almost done. I've taken a much more gritty, realistically shaded approach to the style. Lots of contrasting colours, too. There's still some cleaning up to do as it was a comparatively messy process to what I'm usually used to.

Oh yeah, I think the painting on the metallic parts is going to be completely redone, I really screwed up with the reflections there.  Just posting what I've got so far to see if this sort of style tickles yer fancy. ;)


One more thing: I'm not entirely sure what the process is from digital artwork to the actual application of the tattoo, but will the one you get be an exact duplicate of the design you choose? I'm curious because I've been rather obsessive with the previous versions of the design, in terms of keeping it as neat and clean as I possibly can, right down to the pixel. :P

Moncole's tattoo is going to be crazy

That's loving baller.

Also, it's going to be very close to the actual digital copy. I'm going to print out the rough sketch of it as well as the completed version and go over it myself and make some final changes and then have the tattoo artist work the rest of the magic :)
