Honest criticism is more than welcome! (I know I need to make the "bridge" (or whatever it's called. the walkable wooden area.) better, I'm working on it.)

Nice composition! I’d say maybe give the sun a touch more space behind the clouds. Make the leaves green. The rocks are overlapping the border slightly so send that layer backwards. Personally I think a ship sailing away from the lighthouse or coming into it would be a nice touch...but that may make it too crowded? ?‍♂️

Thank you for your honesty!! I'd make sure to pay more attention to these things in my next pieces. I actually tried incorporating a ship in to the piece while making it, but as you said - it became too crowded (I want it to be legiable and - because of the nature of the work - to be long lasting on someone's skin, so it was quite massive in comparision to the other compotents of the piece, and it just became too much for the immiediete viewer.)

No worries. I’m not experienced at tattooing but those were my thoughts when I looked at the design. Did you create it in photoshop/illustrator?

Also could the walkway be wider in the foreground to create more depth?

I drew it using Procreate. While it doesn't have Vector editing like Illustrator or the wide array of features like Photoshop, it is simple enough to start using yet complex enough to create some really good stuff with.

Now... About the walkway, that's interesting, I didn't think about it. That's a great point and.. honestly a rookie thing I shouldn't have missed. Thanks!

You won't regret that Christmas wish, I never use anything but procreate nowadays. Love it ❤ Wish for the 12.9 though, not smaller!!

The thing is, ppl say they're "just gonna try" and don't want to spend too much on it. But soon feels limited by the smaller iPad, and end up buying both = more expensive ?
Yup. I almost bought an ipad air because I "didn't want to spend too much". Thank god I just said F it and bought the 12.9 version.. If you're gonna use any tablet for content creation (drawing/video editing/music etc.) - you NEED that screenspace.

I know what you’re saying. I have a 12 in graphics tablet for my desktop and I use photoshop on it. It’s sufficient, but I’d always be happy with more room on the screen. Maybe I can make a case for a finance option on this occasion ??
