Artist's Comments

to follow along with my perfect circle obsession, i thought to myself about getting a tattoo involving their symbol, but i remember back in the day when i used to be obsessed with duran duran, and wanted their DD symbol for a tattoo, and i was like "i'll never get tired of them!" and well, of course i have, and i'm glad i never got that tattoo.
so then i decided to try to make the symbol (because i really do love apc) not particularly be only the symbol for the band, but also something nice looking that i wouldn't regret.
this is what i came up with, it's not the most cleanest attempt, but i did ink it by hand and the scan is much larger than it is irl, so it shows all my fumbling handwork. i added the red in psp8, because, well, i am also obsessed with the colour red and it has to be involved with everything i do.

edit -- uhhh, fixed the typo in the title. :shakefist:

RE-EDIT: i made a digital version, which took me a whole lot longer but whatever. i changed a few things but it definitely looks better. well, it looks a little funkier where the red meets black but whatever, i can't do much about it unless i want to make it a gif and i really don't want to, so blah! :P

PS: FULLVIEW definitely looks BETTER, and CLEANER, and all that good stuff.

Well, Maynard is a god any way you look at it. *evil grin*

I checked this out because a friend of mine was also thinking of getting an apc tattoo but there are two reasons as to why I wouldn't suggest this to him. 1) It's a beautiful design, but it looks a little feminine for him and 2) If it's something that you were getting yourself, I wouldn't want him to have it. I believe that if someone designs something for themselves only they should have it. But honestly, those are the only reasons I wouldn't show this to him cause I think the design is spiffy.

thanks! i don't even know if i'd get it anyway, but who knows. but i don't mind other people using my tattoo designs, it's kinda flattering. i've designed two tattoos for my friends which they got and it's neat to know that something i created will be that permanent. but it is a little feminine, i agree. :)

apc kicks ass!! thats a sweet tattoo, i just got an idea for a tattoo...
the godsmack sun with the apc logo in it...
hmmm...
:iconespri:
i love that. the red was an awesome touch. if the design didn't involve that red glow, it would be...mediocre. very nice, though. i enjoyed that.

Wipe the poison from my brow
Alas, my love, this guilty night
Gives me up like a foster child..."

thanks! i was thinking that the red glow when on the skin would either look like infection or irritation... but who knows. :)
