I just finished my first ever commissioned artwork. Sadly, I was never able to do anything with that tattoo art inspired on that I really liked. Oh well, I might keep playing around with it. After finishing the pieces, I realized how my sketches and my final pieces are never the same. But, at least they are somewhat similar. I've know people who's sketches and final piece are pretty much identical in nature. I have never been able to do that. I always get different ideas as I work, and start to run off on tangents.
Here are the sketches, but you will have to follow the link to see the final work.
After a total of 20 hours working, here are the two finished pieces:
