I’m starting the process of tattoo design, and I figured that here would be the best place to begin, as there are so many talented artists. I wouldn’t want to commission someone until I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to get, so I’m running a contest to get together some possibilities. So here is your chance to help me design my tattoo!

Yes, I am whoring this contest all over Deviantart with my little form comments. Even to people who are amazing and I would think would never deign to glance at my paltry artistic offerings. But surprise- some really neat people are interested, and I figure that if they don't know it's here, they won't try. I have a better chance of getting something I want on my body forever if I let the largest amount of people know, so tell your friends, or anyone I've missed! Yay.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Criteria-
I want a wolf and unicorn, each facing inwards, to be placed on my shoulder blades.
It must be simple. Look at Petroglyphs, or Aboriginal art- I really like that kind of style. Solid black is a good thing.
All black, with minimal coloration. A little color is allowed.
The unicorn should be rampant- and no horses. Think the Unicorn Tapestries style. Classic, english-y unicorn, thin legs and long neck and horn. Woot.
The wolf should be thick-ruffed, position doesn’t matter, but timber wolf.
These will probably go on separate shoulder blades, so go for complimentary, and not ecessarily connecting, unless you really want to do it that way
Be origional! The more yours differs from everyone elses, the better chance you'll have.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
Time limit-
Ok folks, the time has come to set a deadline. But fear not- you have quite a while left. I'm closing all entries on SEPTEMBER FIRST. Yes, Sept. 1 is the last day to post your completed entry, and in the week after that I will try to do a poll to see which one wins. Get drawin'.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Reward/ Prize!
I will do one graphite drawing of the char of your choice, so long as it isn’t human. I may even ink and color it in Photoshop- we'll talk and see what you'd like. Or, I will make you a spirit pouch to hold all your good juju, like this one- [link]


Come on you guys! Here’s the chance to show off some inking and design skills. I can’t wait to see what you come up with.
