Description
Okay.... believe this or not, this took 2 years to complete.. TWO YEARS!! too long in my case..took about 12 gel ink pens, whole lot of stress and eye strain! man the fear that i might spill water on this really freaked me out!--------------------------------------------------
I wanted to put thin in the tattoo section initially but then i went with abstract as i see this as a whole art piece.. i'm used to doing tatto designs but they were on a smaller scale.. this is big, i mean the detail i put into it and the time.. it as to be in the adstract art section..
--------------------------------------------------
I did this for my portfolio and i think it's the best i ever did for this type of art.. it's personal but i guess i'll share it with you guys.. hope u like it!
--------------------------------------------------
Oh yea, do comment on this.. thanx

This reminds me so much of one of my works [link]
Your detailing art style is great. It is like mine, but yours flows much better, mine is more random and chaotic. I didn't think I was the only person who could pen like this. However, I knew no one I knew drew the way I did, so I just assumed my style was original. After seeing your intense vision it is obvious that my style needs to reach out farther, and it is not the details you have on this work itself that tells me this. I just find that the style can not be perfected, and it can only look more and more interesting to look at with the proper penmanship. Though my work only took me about 3 hours, the two years you spent working on this was worth it. Good luck to you and your black and white art vision, hopefully it will become a well-known art style, because with this work it's obvious that our style of art is a great one.

Incredible. Can you imagine doing this as a tatoo? Scraping away at someones skin for two years. LOL! Excelent job. I did something like this and it took me 45 minutes. Cept it was people and objects, and sucked compaired to this.
