Tattoo planning

I've delved hot and heavy into planning my next tattoo over the last couple of days. I found an artist I really like and submitted my idea to her. (Char Hall). She's in California somewhere but is coming to North Carolina in October, which is pretty nice since that's my birthday month anyway.

She's very good with animals and I'll be getting a wolf on my left shoulder blade, opposite my dragon. I might try to find an artist local to Atlanta that I like but just looking around online I haven't found anyone.

Now I'm looking for someone to design it. I was going to go with a medieval sort of look and just draw it myself since I wanted it on all fours.

Now I've decided to go with more of a whimsical realism feel. I've contacted this artist to see how much she would charge for a wolf version of this:



Although the fox is pretty damn cool too.

This will be a joint celebrate the weight loss goal reward/motivator and a 40th birthday present. :D
