The bird - That seafoam doesn't at all look solid in this picture. I can't tell or not whether he's bleeding through, or it just isn't solid...it looked solid when before i decided to wrap him up and send him off. He's going to stop in when its healed, so we'll see.
The larger Kanji -- He wanted it to look almost like graffiti. "Like you took a fat marker to it". I wish i could of faded out the purple, for more of a subtle look, but hey, client wants what they want, right?
The paw print -- I finished it in 20 mintues..that kid took solid black like none i've done before, either that or i've just gotten the hang of solid black, lol.
The feet stars -- They were some pretty shitty star tattoos on her feet. She wanted me to make them look more like "stars" and to fill them in black. we did a dark purple around them, probably cant really tell from the picture. She had a green around them, so the dark purple covered it up pretty okay. The two pictures are the before and after.
Well, enjoy.
The paw looks nice and solid, it may have a few patches when it heals. Hard to tell from the lighting in the photo. I wish I could show you how to brighten them in photoshop, without adjusting the colors.
ReplyDeleteKeep on gettin em in the chair... the best way to learn is to keep doing it, with guidance. And I know I have said it before, but if you need help or have a question, stop and find someone to ask. It will prevent you from developing bad habits. I really wish I had the support to do that when I was an apprentice. I know it's a nerve killer, but sometimes having a pro watch you can help you learn what you are doing wrong, that you might have thought was right.
Just my $.02... Cheers.
