Also, I'm willing to open up one commission at a time if people are interested. Just throw me a message. I'll put a tag about whether they're open or not in my sig. Chances are good your WIP will appear here!
Anyway, without further ado, here's my current WIP piece.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's the first of a pair of tattoos I'm making for my sister and I, based on a story that's told about us at all gatherings when my parents are involved.
According to legend, when my sister and I were little (we're only a year apart), there was a pre-school graduating ceremony where everyone got up on stage and said what they wanted to be when they grew up. Amidst a line of children with typical dreams of being firemen, policemen, and astranauts, my sister got up and stage and proudly proclaimed "I want to be a fairy princess!", and I followed up with "I want to be a dinosaur!". My parent's proudest moment of us, I'm sure.
So, my sister is getting a fairy princess themed tattoo, and I'll be getting a dinosaur. Hers is harder, so I'm starting there. She wanted crystal stars, nature, and a tiara. Something not so fairy-ish, but more natural. We've got the drawing how she likes it, and I've mostly finished the crystal stars and flatted the rest. But now we're unsure about yellow - as this is going on skin. Will the yellow show properly? Who knows! I might make it more orange-y or green-y.
