4th tattoo

working on this for my bro
still W.I.P. but this is the first attempt at shading
am i crazy or is it good or what
any thoughts

i guess i should leave description
my bro got the smaller dragon on vacation and found that the choice was not the greatest ( a sleeping dragon?) but also that ppl had hard time with what it is. so he wanted something to work around the smaller dragon as part of a larger theme. we thought about a baby draco in the egg being helped out of the shell by a loving but fierce mother. can you see that or did I make it even more difficult to make out.

You can kinda tell now that you mention it. Though the differences between the styles of dragons, one being more european and the other asian is a bit of a stretchy contrast. I have to say though your work, (the outer dragon) looks amazing. Ppl have told me into doing tatts but I've no clue with that stuff, like hell I'm gonna buy the equipment and just draw on some bums to practice...

I like both pieces, especially yours.
I have a few Dragon tattoos myself.
Someday I plan on having some work done one of them.
I have an appointment next month to get more Marvel work done on my thigh.

Haha nice! Still since the baby dragon is faintly painted it wouldn't be hard to alter it a bit and make it more of your own.

creepy... It's like your in my mind...lol
but ya I thought that I would put some ink on the smaller one to bring out the head and set the body in the background more. In the process work my style into the baby
your right the baby being faint will help
your advice is solid GHOST
Thanks

Nice work, you have enough talent do what Ghost suggested. It'll look great.
