Hi

Something like that you need to put away $4-5k. (This is a high end quote but that way you will not have to compromise on artist or detail).
You are easily talking 30 hours or more for that kind of detail.

Depending on the size of your back will estb how much you can fit in so it looks proportionate.

I would suggest losing much of the background and focus on the warrior as the forepoint of the piece.

Might want to consider with having just one big cat the body around the back of his legs and the head and upper body at his feet.

Possibly add a chain of bone and feathers in his fist and a jewelled or bone encrusted chest/neck harness on the cat?

Hi

The 2 things you need to bear in mind for a project like this are;

1. I cannot stress this enough – find the right artist. No compromises, no skimping back on cost (if you love their work and need more cash save up), and no ink from a mate for a few packs of beer. If you have to wait 6 mths for the right artist it is worth it.

The artist is everything because you can either take a great concept like that and make it mind blowing or have a back full of regret for life otherwise.

2. The picture is design concept only – what you get will never be exact as the picture, as it will be fitted to suit your physique and the interpretation of the artist doing it (why point 1 is so important).

Good luck and looking forward to seeing the progress when you start.
