I wanted to change my avatar to a habs design I created that I am getting tattooed soon. (I think on my ankle)


Brooky.... I think I may paint your design on our Habs room wall 'cause it rocks!!!!! & Robbie is somewhat against my getting a cartoon character indelibly fixed to my skin. LOL.... (pffft)

I've changed it back to my old avatar bacause my tattoo design looked silly (one big blur).... but here is the tattoo picture anyways. (it's just a rough draft... I'm no artist )

Thanks     


I'm not quite sure yet.... it all depends on where I get it. Maybe the ankle, if so.... it'll be slightly bigger than a toonie. I was also thinking of getting it between the shoulder blades.... but it would be slightly bigger.


Still undecided

Do you have anymore cool designs? I'm looking for ideas for a habs tattoo

Not yet... this was my first try.


I knew what I wanted but couldn't explain it to anyone in a way they'd understand. A tattoo artist tried to draw out my description... but it looked awful. I decided to find a flower drawing online, I cut it out, put the picture of the habs symbol through my photo editor, & then dropped, resized & turned my cutout until the symbol was almost completely filled in.... then I deleted the symbol from behind, coloured it in & voila!!!!! My tattoo.


What was it you were looking for?

It's very pretty, MC, but I think the "H" is a bit lost inside the "C".   A non-Hab fan or casual observer might miss the fact that it's their logo.  I would make the "H" out of some different flower or design. 


Just my 2 cents.  I am in awe of your talents.

I understand with what you are saying & agree that the "H" is a little blended, however... I don't want it to stand out like a sore thumb to the point that it is entirely recognizable..... I like the daintiness of it.... it's less noticeable. (I originally had the petals coloured exactly like the symbol.... but I didn't like it much)
 
I may try to reverse the colours of the "H" flowers (centre red, petals blue) just to see how it looks..... since you mentioned it ....... 
 
Whaddaya think of that idea?.... & Thanks for the complement

That was just my opinion, so it doesn't mean much in the big scheme of things.  Give it a whirl and see how it turns out.

Here is a quick re-colour of it. (The shading sucks but it was just to see what the difference would be)


Any thought's on which is a better scheme?

Sorry for the delay; Mrs. d was hogging the computer all day.  I like the new version VERY much!


I just might get it applied to MY ankle!
