hope i didnt discourage you that much. though i know i can get a bit tense when talking about my goals. drawing portraits is one thing im ok at but i cant do designs or draw from my imagination for crap and its not stopping me (hopefully lol). anyways when tattooing a portait you use a stencil so that might help.

great concept. how do you think of this stuff! the tenticles are like his brains being blown out. i think it would be a better drawing if the gun looked more 3d though. it looks flat whereas everything else is going back on an angle. maybe some fire or smoke coming out of the barrel might be good too. anyways good job
