Ladies, I literally laughed out loud when I saw all three of you had reposted it for him!

x5150x, looks good dude!



Ive been cohersed (ie, threatened with bodily harm) to extend the contest, so this is the official notification...

CONTEST EXTENDED UNTIL 11:59 JAN 27!!!!

That will give me enough time to tally all of the "likes" and choose a winner. I will try to place the orders for the winners by the 29th and prizes should be able to be delivered by the first weekend in Feb.

Dont forget, unlimited submissions allowed.

KEEP 'EM COMIN' FOLKS!!!!!

IThrenodyI, as for lack of software, get GIMP. It's free, it's not quite as awesome as Photoshop, but it's close, especially with add-ons and the fact that it is completely free lol.

I can't draw, but I did get pretty good with creating things with it and editing other peoples stuff. Maybe if I get some down time, I'll try to come up with something too.

I keep trying, but between my non existent artistic skills and lack of software, I just can't do it. But I'll try to describe what I was going for...pretty simple, a wavy (blowing) flag background, fading out on the edges, with the navy anchor and your years of service centered on top.


TheJack, I'm really hoping you draw this up, it sounds awesome!
I got an idea for you but i honestly worked to long today to draw but here goes. get your Navy Anchor. Just the outline and on the inside make it biomechanical. if you google biomechanical tattoo you will get an idea of what i`m talking about but the Main outline would be the Anchor. as for the patriotic part if the outline was doubled with a decent amount of space between the 2 lines "your main outlines" you could fill in that empty space with the flag and make the biomechanical part gray wash / black work. hope that helps man. i can visualize it but i`m not sure if you can.

Banners around anchors are now my nemesis! I've freehanded, copy n pasted and used PS brushes and still can't get it right. Sorry, efirdj, your tat artist has drawn more of these than I have, so I defer! BTW, this is my first tatoo, and I've realized that you have to color between the lines.............. bad for me. LOL
