    Hi

    You have some sweet ink there!

    I am a black n shade fan normally but on a phoenix you have you have to go full colour to give that type of tattoo justice.

    I would say oranges, yellows, reds for the fire and maybe some sapphire blues.

    Looking great.

    Im not a color guy so my vote is for some black and light shading

    looks great either way though!

    I’d def go color. Like others have said, A phoenix sortof needs color to do it justice… I’m such a conformist, lol.

    awesome piece though, i definitely like how it goes all the way down to the waistline instead of stopping at lower back….. I’d say go a little darker behind the scroll with text on it, so it will add some depth, but im sure the artist will do something of that sort…

    good luck with the rest of it, looks like you have quite a bit of time left in the chair man.

    Thanks everyone! I guess the majority says color because it’s a phoenix piece, which is usually vibrant / colorful. I’ll be working up a color scheme in photoshop just to mess around.. I’ll be sure to post back once i’m finished with my tatt! Artist said that i’ll probably need 2 more sessions though, the outline only took 2 hours and only $200! thanks all ๐Ÿ™‚

    4-22-09 UPDATE++++++++++++

    Heres a quick update guys. Just got back from 2nd session and out of the showers. Tail feathers are only shaded for now, but will be color next session. I’ve decided to not go with the bright greens/purples like other phoenixs’ but more of a red/yellow color. For the clouds im planning to just shade them in black/grey, and leave the phoenix/tail in color. 1 more session to go to tidy things up!
