This is design which I draw to friend of mine. He want angel with name on paper. We will start with tattoo in next weekend. What do you think?

I would hand letter the text on there. Anything off the computer will never look right.

I love the image, but i think the scroll is just too big. But thats a matter of opinion, the scroll is just dwarfing the lettering

I feel the same way, at the moment the scroll is the dominant figure and taking up to much space that can be way cooler. He looks kinda funny that small it would work better if he was a cherub or if you made him bigger maybe just the bust but the artwork itself is nice

I agree there ,don't like the scroll one bit would be nicer to have the lettering on some scrolling banner but this dominates the picture looks like he having a go hanging wallpaper.

Think its too easy to get stuff from the net, and slap it on to someone. Allot of stuff I see now looks like a transfer, and not a real tattoo. For me, real tattoo is about fitting the tattoo the the body part.

I see people here get credit for various tattoos, because they are technically very good. But what allot of tattooists don't notice while looking at the ink, is the dam tattoo looks like a f sticker! With this tattoo, I would suggest you somehow fit the scroll and angel to the body part. For example, you could have the scroll twist right around the arm, or above the angel. Or the wings of the angel could be either side of the arm, with the hand gesturing the old symbol of the angels 'Quod est inferius est sicut quod est superius'.

The picture you've drawn is very good. It is not wooden, but has a nice flow to it.

Where is the tattoo going to be placed?
