If you don't mind me asking, was that a picture originally done on white paper with black charcoal/or another implement and then photographed using negative effect? As the background blackness looks extremely black compared to your other backgrounds? A very nice pic btw

A rough draft for a tattoo design

If I remember correctly, you can easily reverse the colours using phot editing software.

 

[equuskat]

Yes, the colors are reversed. My reasoning is that the original, a pencil drawing, is going to be published and I wanted to change it a little to post on AB so that the published image can maintain a certain freshness.

 

[equuskat]

Oh and thanks folks.

 

[Jarvis]

great pics everybody, love the scratchboard thing looks awsome, I've been working on a tat design for a freind for awhile, i'll have to post it when I finish.

heres a generic one i did at work one day with blue and black ink pen..
there is a crease in the paper and i had to take a photo and edit the size so it changed the quality...

H. lividum tattoo

Here is my tattoo artists rendition of a H. lividum. That was less than five minutes after it was finished. I'll post another pic when it heals.

 

[Megan]

Wow, that tattoo is absolutely beautiful. VERY well done! The shadows make it look 3-D. :clap:

I made a quick forum icon awhile back before I realized that you couldn't use them on this board.. hehe.

 

[BCscorp]

I am really impressed with everyone's artistic efforts...from amateur to pro, its nice to see people putting effort into expressing their admiration for our eight legged friends.
keep 'em coming!

 

[halfwaynowhere]

I'm less of an artist and more of a crafter.
Here's a little something I came up with one day when I was bored. And for once, I wrote down the pattern as I made it so I could re-create it!

I had her in the back window of my car for awhile, along with a plastic B. smithi, and a beanie baby tarantula. No place to put them in my new car, which is ironically, a Spyder.

oh that's cute! how do you make (and post) icons like that? i see a lot of them here and have always wondered...

 

[nakazanie]

@Serasha - wOW! Awesome tat. That is just the kind of thing that I am looking for, but I can't bring myself to trust a tat artist to do a good tarantula.

@Halfwaynowhere - I love that. Is that knit? I would love to crochet one.
