Position:Home>Visual Arts> Help me design a tattoo?


Question:I have no skills when it comes to drawing and I need help.

If you are willing could you draw, or photoshop what I'm describing and host it and answer with a link please?

Or if you know of a good link.

Im gonna want a cross and a serpent on my left upper arm.

I want the cross to be clearly wooden.

The serpent to be showing its fangs, and a coloration that makes you think about Satan (like in the Garden of Eden), I don't have a preference as to what kind of snake it is.

The cross should be stomping, stabbing, piercing,or otherwise killing the serpent.

The symboling is very simple, the Cross (to me) represents God and good, the Serpent (to me again) represents Satan and evil, and the Cross is destroying the Serpent.

Here is a link to a tattoo that is kinda close to what i'm looking for:

Feel free to take artistic license, have fun, make it interesting, add other things to it if you think it looks good.

Thanks for the help!

You sound like you already know what your image will be once you see it. Your ideas are very specific. So, you should start looking at artist portfolios to find a artist style you like.

You have plenty of information and details that you can go to a solid artist and have them design your tattoo. They don't just trace and ink, they also design tattoos based on the images and information you give them.

Sure, you might end up paying more for it, but this can get the artist excited to design and ink you tattoo. An inspired artist will certainly give you an inspired tattoo you'll be proud of for the rest of your life.

Good luck!

most tattoo places have an artist there that can design what you want and they usually don't charge you anything
