New tattoo
#1
I need some help designing my next tattoo. I know what I want and have some pics to go with it. The problem is I don’t have the needed artistry to make it look good…

This is going at the base of me neck and between the shoulders. I want this cross



With this design.



What do you think?
#2
I think I could help you design that. Do you want that exact design of the cross? And do you want the banner around it too, like in the picture?
#3
yeah I want that cross or something like it. As for the banner... whatever works.
#4
What do you want the banner to say?
#5
In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus Sancti

You read my mind, for the longest time I have wanted to get a tatoo for a similar cross. I have just been putting it off forever. I am going to have mike design something similar but I will stay away from your idea since you posted it first.

Its all good. I have the same tattoo that a bunch of other people have... Feel free to run with it.

I don't know man, Laurel's designed one for Nathan, Jonathan and someone else. Not to mention she's been working on one for FB all day at schoolio and home. Jared, you should check her out! She's loving all this drawing. Remember how well Steve draws? Well she's just like that if not better :shock: She's gonna post some pics soon.

Here it is:

WOW!!!! That looks so good! Im at a loss for words :shock: :shock: :shock:
#12
Holy cow, laural you are awesome. I would be honored if you could design something for me along the same line as what Dana posted.
#13
Sure thing! Do you just want a cross with a different design inside or something else?
#14
Maybe a different design on the inside and if you can change the scroll work up a little. I am going to use a different phrase.
#15
What phrase you want?
#16
Im still looking for a good one, let me know if you have any in mind.
#17
I may have something.... let me dig it up
#18
I can't find what I was looking for... I had a pic of "Greater love has no one than this" (John 15:13) in Hebrew or Aramaic… I’ll keep looking
#19
That is a really cool one. There are a couple that I was looking at also in both latin and greek. I will let you know when I have narrowed it down.

Sorry. I saw Jared checking out this old thread, so I looked too...

Did anyone ever get these tats?

That artwork is great, just curious if it ever came to life...
