Steampunk-like gears

Drawing those gears took me wayyyy to much time, huh. And they still look messy, but I guess it could be an inspiration for a steampunk themed tattoo.

    Hey,

    If you don't mind I would like to use your idea as my first tattoo. I have to modify it slightly though, but the general idea is superb!

    Hey, this is beautiful! Would you mind if I used this as a mock-cover to a book I'm writing?

    Marie: If you give credit to this website somewhere ("cover from tattoos-and-doodles.blogspot.com" or something like that), yes, you can.

    Hi!
    Thank you so much for this design, and letting me and my tattoo artist be inspired by it!
    Thought you might enjoy seeing it "in use", even if its not quite finished yet.. I am very proud of it! :)

    LilleVille: Wow, it looks fantastic with the additions of the curved part and the coloured jewels. Your tattoo artist did a great job :) Thanks a lot for showing me the result!

      Glad you aprove! It still needs a lot of work, the lower part needs shading to make it look more "metalic", and the top part has a couple of jewels that needs color (not visible in this picture) I'll post a better picture when it's done!

      And here it is, mostly done! The bottom part may still change, but the top with your design is perfect :)

    Hey! :D

    I have this tattoo as well!

    Just wondering if you know the symbology of the flower on the lower gear.. as well as the 3 spiral symbol in the middle of the top gear..

    thanks

      The 3 spiral is a triskell / triskelion that you'll find in a lot of my works, and... well the meaning depends on which websites you look at. To me it's just a celtic symbol that I like. :)

      And that's also the only symbol I included in that image, there's no meaning to the lower gear "flower", it's just an ornamental thing. It doesn't look like any symbol I know of.
