MY OZ TATTOO

Contest Brief

I'd like a tattoo design with a Wizard of OZ theme. Specifically to include the Tin Man's heart and watch fob as depicted in the movie. I'm leaning more towards realism as apposed to abstract ideas and more mystical or romantic as opposed too cartoonish.

Not having a specific design in mind, I'm open to all ideas. Perhaps the Tin Man's funnel hat could be incorporated as a background or secondary feature.

I know this is a little vague and so I'm happy to hear from any artist with questions or ideas to entertain.

    I want to take a minute and thank my winning Freelancer, Karina I. The amount of care and enthusiasm she put into her work was amazing. She read carefully what I was struggling to describe, then took it the next step and asked many questions, some of which I had not even thought of to narrow in on my wants and needs. At each step she asked for more feedback and adjustments. I could feel that she truly cared about the finished product! I would highly recommend her talents to anyone!

    Just want to remind everyone, what I am looking for is an Original line drawing or etching. As a point of reference, the story of The Wizard of Oz, has a Tinman in it. He is awarded a Heart Watch. I would like an updated/sexier look to the watch and if there is something that ties the Tinman to it, or in the background that would be nice too....if it makes sense with the overall look.

    Andrew, you are giving it a good effort. I was really looking for more of a line drawing (or etching) of a design, but you have many of the components that I am looking for. The chain is not quite complete without a fob,

    Please feel free to ask for more information. I'm afraid I'm being a little too vague but hopefully we're getting closer to giving you all some good ideas.

    Thank you all for your work so far. Just as a clarification, I'm not looking for photos of an existing tattoo. Rather, your rendition of my theme. I'd like the heart/watch and fob as it was presented to the Tinman in the movie. Entry #3 has some element of what I'm looking for. Namely, the heart.

    Hi Katie C, no I have not decided completely yet where I am going to place it yet. The design will partly help me to decide. However a couple of things to keep in mind, don't need it real busy. The heart watch is the main focus and while it needs to look similar to the one portrayed in most pics, it could be modernized just a bit. With the Tinman in the background (if possible) it just ties to my story.

    Do you know where on your body you want to place the tattoo?

    I meant it doesn't need a specific resolution.

    No it does need a specific resolution. Black and white is fine, however if you want to add some red in for the heart that is up to you.

    Hello! ^_^ Does it need to have a specific resolution? Also, do you need it black and white or colored? :D
