Description

This was a commision for our lovely cashier at Animethon. So PLEASE refrain from ANY unauthorized use of it!

After seeing the technicolour oil spill she exclaimed VERY enthusiastically that she would give her soul and future children and such to have a sea turtle in a similair style. I was hooked on the idea, I didn't tell her for sure I would make her it, but I did and when she saw it in progress she literally squealed. ^_^

Looking back, I should have charged more! XD this nearly broke my wrist!
Done on roughly 8" by 11" sketchbook paper, in a .03 sakura micron V_V;; my hand was extremely cramped after working on it!

I did use referance photos of sea turtles, since she was very adament that it BE a SEA TURTLE
to me it looks like it would make a cool tattoo design, although I would pity any tattoo artist asked to copy it

WOW...AWESOME...FANTASTIC...
I´m totally stunned!!! :jawdrop:

Dear Chibi-muse,

I´ve read that you won´t anyone to use it, but please let me first explain a bit before I ask THAT specific question ;-)

I´m in love with turtles ever since I can remember, collecting them a.s.o. and my biggest wish for years now is a unique turtle tattoo! Now and then I´m searching for THAT PERFECT turtle tattoo...have seen thousands of possible pictures but NEVER and this I swear...I NEVER saw anything comparable to your brilliant piece of art! It´s fair to say that I fell in love with your turtle painting...do you know the feeling when you want something special and you search it for years...than you see something and suddenly you know: THIS IS IT!!!? ;-)

To cut a long story short here´s my plea: will you give me the permission to use it as my special turtlelovertattoo???

Have a nice weekend ;-)

Best wishes
Thea
