Whats this then? My first tattoo design :D

My cousin has asked that I design some tattoos for him so this is the first of three.

Remit:
A realistic eye with a rainbow iris
A red and blue galaxy (hence the 'Eye in the Sky') I might have taken a few liberties with the galaxy stylising, but we'll see

Materials this time:
2/3 of an A4 sheet of bristol
Graphite (mainly 8B mars lumo)
FC Polychromos CP's
Eraser/BluTack
Time: About 6-7 hours
No refs to credit.
Note 1: The pink in the swirl areas are actually red, my scanner is doing it's thing again :bucktooth:
Note 2: Coloured pencil on bristol board is a bad idea :shakefist:

Thank you for having a look
Paula :heart:

EDIT: It's been done, Eye in the Sky in the flesh :happybounce:

Was a pleasure to work with your artwork as a reference Paula, and I'm glad your cousin is pleased with the result. 4 hours and he sat like a trooper :) Cheers, Leon

Ooh! Imagine the pain (not that I've ever had a tattoo). It's a glorious design, gorgeous colouring too.

I think it's really sore at the moment, it's kind of sensitive there :giggle: Thank you, the tattooist did a great job :)
