Description
Mkay. I don't know why you'd waste your time favoriting this when it's not the final draft. So don't bother.Comments are much appreciated though. I want suggestions and CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM.
Okay, DO NOT STEAL ANY PART OF THIS. This is a CUSTOM and completely unique tattoo design that I want on myself, ONLY. I would be glad to make you your own custom design, just ask, but please for the love of God, don't copy this. Not that it's okay to steal any of my other art, but I put extra emphasis on this because it's custom body art.
Anyways, this is a small portion of a tattoo sleeve I'm designing for myself. I'm drawing it pretty much to scale, so it's going to take forever and this is just a work in progress. This part right here is only really about shoulder and bicep area. I wanted to see what people thought so far. The colors are as close as I could get them to being true, but my scanner killed them. So it looks better on paper. This picture is actually a couple different drawings digitally (and poorly I might add) stitched together because I don't have room for everything on one paper. Nothing in this design is final yet, it's just a conceptual sketch. Suggestions are welcome.
I have much more to add, including Jack Skellington, Lock, Shock, and Barrel, Vincent Malloy, Coraline, the spider chick thing in Coraline, the Sandworm, Lydia, and Beetlejuice, All Hallow's E.P. scarecrow and pumpkin, Articia, possibly Art, and I can't think of any of the other stuff right now.
(Yes, I recycled the mansion/tree, etc from my contest entry picture.)

Ps. If you read ALL of this, then you're my hero.

TIM BURTON FUCK THE WALRUS!! (ftw? Get it? Fuck the Walrus? ...nevermind.)
Duuuude, you should SO totally add Jack and Lock and Shock and Barrel and Coraline, and... I'm guessing by spider chick you mean Other Mother... XD
YES. EPIC WINNNN
Your scanner is actually way better than mine...

Yes yes! I meant the Other Mother by the spider chick. XD But not the Other Mother when she looks all nice, I'm talking like when she gets all creepy and mean and like her bones and needles start showing.
Why thank ya.
It only looks nice because I edited the shizz out of it to TRY to get it SOMEWHERE even remotely close to what it looks like on paper. D:

YEAH! The Other Mother is awesomeeee... I was kinda suprised that Coraline was a kid's movie though... she was kinda scary... O_o

....words cannot fully describe my awe for this...but im going to try anyway. you see, ive actually been trying to plan out this halloween sleeve for myself, but i just am not happy with it. after seeing your work though...wow
while there may be an awful lot of small detail for a tattoo design, which i sure could still be worked in right, as an overall picture its just so fucking awesome (sophisticated art talk)
the concept is beautiful, but im not too sure how well it will really transfer over unless some things are simplified such as the whole graveyard/fence/scarecrow scene. hopefully im just not being paranoid with losing some of the detail
cant wait to see this thing progress, but for the time being...im going to break the rules here
FAV'D

Awww. I've wanted halloween themed sleeves for a lonnng time now. D: And this is only my left arm. I can't wait to think of something for my right arm too.
You bring up a very valid point, I didn't even think about the detail. I'm sure if it's too much I can always have it simplified, I'm not too worried about that. But thank you very much for bringing that to my attention, I'll definitely have to remember that when I go to make a final.
If you're having trouble putting yours together, don't hesitate to ask me for brainstorming. I'm sure you'd wanna draw it yourself because you're fantastic with all that halloween type stuff, but I could always give you a little outside input for placement and what not.
Jeebus I can't wait until I'm 18 and can actually get something like this. D: Only 2 1/2 more years..... :/

ah no problem at all, always willing to help add input on tat designs. regardless, i have faith in ya and it should be fun to see what might come up for the right arm design. kinda like the excitement of christmas present anticipation...okay i'll admit that was an odd analogy but i'll stand by it.
ha thanks for the sweet comment, id openly admit im blushing but im a MAN AND MEN DONT...actually i guess i just admitted it so i'll just...stand down...but honestly, as much id like to have my own design etched into my skin, collaboration of someone elses ideas/skill doesnt bother me much either. to me it makes it just as much, if not more special. plus i have full faith in your opinion, hell if i didnt i wouldnt be so giddy like a school girl over your design
....and that was the last time i ever relate myself to a giddy school girl.....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hahahahaa yes that was an odd analogy. I was just kind of like... "Hmm... that's a little peculiar that someone's excited about something that's intended for ME." XD But that's okay. I'll not question it.
Aww haha. Well it's true, I love your style. It reminds me a lot of Mr. Forbes. But it's not like a carbon copy of his style. It's got uniqueness to it.
Well in that case, if you ever want to discuss/collab I'm totally ready. I'd love to work with someone else and it would just be the icing on the cake if it ended up on someone's body.
HAHA that's quite alright. I've seen plenty of 20+ year old hardcore punk man friends of mine get fangirly or school girly or stuff of that sort. You're not the first and you're not alone. XD

Yay I'm your hero! xD
I love sleeve designs, can't wait to be the one etching em' into peoples arms, so far this looks REALLY epic, I love it. Can't wait to see the finished product
I should do one of my own of these
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hah! This is so sudden.
I think I wanna learn to tattoo peeples tooo. That'd be so much fun. And I can't wait to COVER myself in them. 
I can't wait to actually get that design on me, it's gonna be bitchin'. Even though I have a few years to wait. XD
DOOOOD YOU SHOULD TOTALLY MAKE YOUR OWN DESIGN. YOURS WOULD BE BEYOND EPIC.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
haha i know right??
yeah, I'm the same way, the most I'd get on my face is like a really small X under my eye. I finally turn 18 at the end of this year, im so damn excited
awwwwww, thanks!! yeah i really think it'd turn out epic
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You lucky sonofabatchofcookies! I still have to wait 2 1/2 years. 
You're quite welcome. :3 It'd be totally epic!

hahah epic use of words xD
Grawr that blows, late 1991 for me xD
haha yeah, last night i sat in my bed just thinking of ideas, i wanna get a new sketch book first tho...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha thanks. XD
Meh.. I'm happy with my age I guess. I think I'm patient enough to last a few more years. In fact, I think it's legal in my state to get tattoos at 16 if you have parent permission, but I wouldn't want to get one that early anyways. I'm sure that if I still want the same tattoos when I'm 18, I'll want them forever. I want to make sure every one is well thought out.
Well I can't wait to see what you come up with!

This is gorgeous.
Is there going to be anything around Edward?
it looks blank around him.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww thank you.
Yeah I know. It seems so nakey in that tiny area. I'm not sure yet. At the very least I might extend the purple rocks behind his head if I can't think of anything else at all. Any suggestions?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Welcome!!
I don't know...maybe something significant to him that you could fit into that leetle space?
I am not sure.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The cookies? Or maybe the machines? Either of those would look kinda cool just being lightly sketched behind him. :3
