That was a confusing way of wording it. Sorry, I was able to edit it in time to make more sense.

Whatever you wanna do. You can pay homage to the old pioneers by keeping it old school, or utilize your natural style to come up with something new. It's open to what you want.

Here's mine. This is as far as I can take this one. I'll finish it when I'm back with the trails. Can someone please post the poll when it's time? I will not be online when the contest is done.

Cheers guys...

Dammit Justin.......did you not get around to coloring this on purpose?? You would have had another great shot at winning if you had. I've noticed that drawings that are completely colored and "flashy"(no pun intended)seem to win. Well no matter........I've been wanting to do something like this for awhile.......
Well, hopefully whatever it is that's taking you away from the site has nothing to do with us, and hopefully it's easily dealt with.
Awaiting your return(and your FINISHED entry........) tongue.gif

Okay, here's mine. I have no idea how to color this one, so I went black and gray. Some old and a little bit of new style.
For the old style I've used Sailor Jerry's flash as reference, Can't go wrong with a name like that on aquatic themes.

great peice bro, but i reckon more shading/filling/detail could really make this a peice to reckon with .....

(like the boat itself, great btw, but for the rest of it ) to make it true black and gray... imagine that on skin. it would look half done.....

sorry guys new to this site and thought the rules were to make it tattooable....

Either way bro GREAT work .....

Thanks for the feed back Tat2tat, I'm going straight back to the drawing board.

Your right, It's not black and gray at all, so actually it is half done. I don't know how I just left it at this. And if everybody does not mind I'm gonna fine tune this. This will still be my entry, but ill just keep this as a work in progress.
