i say this everytime but you should look around and find a good tattoo artist and talk to them about this design they understand how the shape of the body can effect a tattoo how it will look in 5-10 years etc something that looks good on paper doesnt always translate to skin.

yeah that would be sick

I agree on this point about a going to a tattoo artist and gathering feedback on any job. They should be able to bring your vision to life with an understanding of the long term effects. They understand their medium and should be considered the expert here. I would also make sure that you take the time to find a good tattoo artist that can capture a style you like. With that said, you should be able to bring any sketch, photo or idea to a tattoo artist and they should be able to be able to bring your idea to life. Will there need to be adjustments to work with medium? Sure, but personally I think you have a good starting point. I’m biased of course.

I agree it would be cool to show a Timelapse. It is unfortunately not a default function. I am tempted to recreate this to show the steps clearly. If people would find it helpful, I’ll do few Timelapse videos.

Why did you draw the lion with down syndrome?
I'm talking about it's eyes, specifically.
