Tough As Nails

Hey guys, here's another dinosaur tattoo. I really like this one and the colors. I was going to make the tongue green but I really liked the warm colors agaistn the white so I left it.

I used accryllic paint for the coloring and just a micron for the linework.

Let me know what you think about this one; the design, composition, etc.

Thanks for looking :)

Nice job! It would make for an awesome leg or shoulder tattoo

Very nicely done! The selective use of colour really brings it to startling life.

ExtinctionArts responds:

Thanks! I thought so too!

I agree that the warm colors work well and pop out with the white. The green would have been a little distracting.

Not sure what is happening with the dinosaur's hind legs. I only see the thigh and it seems to disappear. Overall, it's a little too tight near the bottom of the image, and everything seems to overlap with other things. If you could allow the body to snake down more the lower body could be more clear with a stronger silhouette.

ExtinctionArts responds:

Yeah i see what your saying. The thigh that I think you see is just it's arm bending towards itself. I probably should have been more clear with that lol. Also I didn't want the design to get TOO convoluted (since it was already tight) with lines that could blend with other parts of the line work so i opted to just leave the legs out, I thought that If it was on someones skin then its lower half would have been a big mess of shit haha.

Love hearing your feedback on everything so thank you :)
