Refine My Forearm Tattoo Design
Budget: $30 – $250 AUD
I already sketched the core idea for a tattoo that will start at my wrist and run only a short way up the forearm. What I need now is an artist who can take those rough outlines and turn them into a polished, “smooth and pretty” composition—think fluid lines, balanced negative space and a finish that will translate cleanly to skin.
You’ll receive photos of my of different elements I'd like incorporated so you understand the vibe. The main picture has too much detail and flourish (file name Less_flouish). I would like it simplified. Features of this image (Less-flourish) I would like to have less dots and them to be random, too much flourish, the centre circle (more like image_4746) and that the circle is sitting on what appears a pedestal. From there I’m looking for:
• A refined line drawing, sized for the exact forearm placement or can be scaled down (wrist to about 9 cm up).
• Optional grey-wash or soft-shade version that still reads well in a single-needle style.
• A final file package: layered PSD or Procreate file plus high-resolution PNG/PDF the tattooist can print at true scale.
Please keep the flow elegant rather than bulky or hyper-detailed; legibility at a smaller width is essential. If you’d like to suggest subtle flourishes or swap a curve for something more dynamic, feel free—I’m open, as long as the overall mood stays delicate and graceful.
Send over a quick sample of previous tattoo line work (especially pieces designed for narrow forearm areas) and let me know how many revision passes you include.
