I understand where you are you coming from. It may kind of look that way that I'm just throwing things at my arm but I've had this idea in my head for a long time of a mechanical piece I've just been having a hard time visualizing what it would all consist of. My artistic/creative abilities are pretty terrible which is why I'm asking for ideas. The tattoo artist so far has been very good at taking objects I send her away and transforming them. The style she is going for seems to mesh well with the idea i've had in my head. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't do it.
Well it is unfinished, very much so. She just did some outline and basic shading for my first session. I don't mind if things are crooked. That's something I didn't want either was it to be hyper-realistic because I don't find that as visually exciting or enjoyable when it comes to tattoos. Additionally, as soon as I move my arm everything is going to look crooked that's just how it goes.
Stay tuned I go back wednesday very excited to continue with the piece! It's going to take some time before we get a good picture of how it all blends together but I'm very hopeful
