So, I've been told to draw a tattoo

[kingocraplantis]

Was given the task of giving this skull a body:



Came up with this:



As far as I can tell, I only succeeded in making him look like an undead flasher

Little advice in how I might improve on this deal? You know, aside from the obvious notion that I need to draw some pants?

 

[Moxio]

Nice drawing.

In the original, though, it seems he's holding a knife in his teeth. Is that important?

The hat in the first picture just screams "Cholo" so you might want to work off of that.

Try a zoot suit.

 

[kingocraplantis]

Actually, that's banner that says 'OSIRIS'; the meaning of which I have no idea, so I can only hope it isn't important.

That is what I was going to say. A skeleton flasher would be awesome since, you know....skeletons are already naked.

Sorry for the quick treatment on this but hopefully you get the idea. Im working on a few paintings at the moment and cant spare to much time but this guy has tons of possibilities so i had to give it a go. I think he needs more attitude in the pose.

Ah, I see what you mean, posture affects the overall attitutde of the drawing. Yeah, that makes sense, I couldn't figure out why I wasn't able to make this guy express what needed to be expressed and that could be why. Also, considering that was a quickie, that drawing of yours is pretty awesome.

He should have a pimp cane. And a tie.

And also star in a rock band.

..... His guitar is a scythe!

 

[darthbudge]

Noice Strell.

 

[kingocraplantis]

Lol holy crap Strell, you win.

So if I'm getting this right, he should be a pimpin' rockstar hipster detective from the 40's who chain-smokes? Sounds awesome so far.

 

[getmeoutofjoliet]

This image has tons of potential.

But I'd have to charge you If i drew anything.

From someone who has a tattoo and plans to have more, you should be going by what the person wants. Unless, this is just for shits and giggles. I like what ive seen so far, but Ive never been much of the skulls and skeletons tattoo person.

I was only told to give this guy a body, so pretty much everything else is up in the air. So yeah, basically shits and giggles.
