iampolo Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Hey, im new here, didn't know where to ask for this but i'm needing some help. I want to tattoo my back, and i was not sure what would i choose to tattoo, until i came to the table of allomatic metals symbols, and then the table. I was hoping if someone here had the skills/time to make a black and white tattoo design of the table (http://images.wikia.com/mistborn/images/e/ed/Mb_table_v13-1-.jpg) Would really appreciate that!. Of course once i get the tattoo i will post a picture!.
Krelian Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 Do you want just the symbols and division lines? I can do something like that tomorrow if you want. If you want a greyscale, detail-oriented thing, I'd talk to an actual tattoo artist and let them design it on their own based on the original picture.

If you can actually do that, it would be awesome!. Dunno if it is important, but i won't be a HUGE tattoo, i was thinking about 15cm (6 inches) diameter.. Edited March 9, 2013 by iampolo

Sure, busy later tonight, but sometime tomorrow I'll give ya a black and white version without the background color/texture stuff. Edit: As far as size, any decent artist will know what to do. You can't make it too small though, since the thin lines on the symbols will fade and blur over time. Edited March 9, 2013 by Krelian
iampolo Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 True that! No hurry, im planning on doing it this week, but i can wait. Thanks a lot btw.
FlashWrogan he/him Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 You should post a picture of it once you have it done!
Krelian Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 That work? Tried to leave the ring with a little texture so you can have some shading, but depending on size, it's going to be tough getting in much detail that won't blur/fade over time. If you want something more stylized, or with more details, you should work with the artist directly. 3
iampolo Posted March 9, 2013 Author Posted March 9, 2013 Thats pretty cool, maybe thinner lines, but that should work! I'm taking it to the artist this monday i think =) Thanks a lot man.
Krelian Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Good luck, let us see how it turns out! Now you have me thinking about Mistborn-related tattoos too.....
iampolo Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Hey guys, so i modified it a little and want to know what you think about it. And this would be the more plain (kind of) version: Edited March 10, 2013 by iampolo
Senor Feesh Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Personally I'd lose the drop shadow, it kind of blurs the symbols. Other than that, I'd go with your simpler version.
iampolo Posted March 10, 2013 Author Posted March 10, 2013 Yeah i forgot deleting the shadows, tomorrow when im home i will, thanks.
FlashWrogan he/him Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Stumbled over this on Reddit. Thought you would be interested as it is a Mistborn tattoo http://www.reddit.com/r/Mistborn/comments/1a1ikr/mistborn_check_out_my_boyfriends_recent_tattoo/c8tv480?context=3
