Tobacco tattoo

[ChinaVoodoo]

I could use a little help deciding what form and style to get. I like this guy's tobacco tattoo.

But the proportions seem a little off, like it's too narrow. But then again, I'm sure there's some plants that look like that. I like the overall black and grey style of his tobacco tattoo.

I also like black and white watercolor tattoos


Here's a color example. I was thinking it might be neat to have a color watercolor tobacco tattoo where the plant is half ripe, and show the awesome colors, but I don't have any suitable photos


Like, look at the color on this stock photo. Cool, nah?


Come to think of it, please send photos of plants that would work as inspiration for either style. I'd rather have the artist use an original from someone here than a stock photo.

That shutterstock image is not even a tobacco leaf.

That's pretty cool Marc.

I'm thinking of an entire plant, but those leaves are great because I can show the artist what the proper anatomy is like.
