finally got these little doodles right - well ok i had the doodles right i just had no ways or means of finishing them off as my graphics tablet decided it didn't want to play any more :faint:
either way thank goodness the lines were done and i didn't have to refine any or try shade these you have no idea how hellish cleaning up a basic line or two was with just a mouse! :faint:

one for my left shoulder-blade one for my right :la: yup i'm getting gargoyles tattooed and i've booked my sittings with a local artist

:bulletblack: first sitting booked for 1st Dec
:bulletblack: second sitting booked for 26th Jan

a couple of photos of the finished pieces



figure reference taken from a few different places - one being a really old book my dad got me from a junk shop titled 'the complete drawing book' the other two are 'anatomy for the artist' and an 'illustrators reference manual' the rest ( horns wings tail etc ) is pretty much artistic imagination :lmao:

lol yup i know that one gargoyles are the water spout ones =P me and the tattoo artist had this debate - but as most folks don't know the difference anyways its easier to say 'gargoyle' than 'grotesque'

Thats a fair point :D and Gargoyle does sound more mystical :)..
