Someone Wants to use my artwork for a full-body tattoo!

RED DRAGON by KARADIN on the long-sleeved tee.

This image was created to commemorate the news that Benedict Cumberbatch will play the dragon Smaug in Peter Jackson’s film of The Hobbit. I’m a huge fan of the book from childhood, a fan of Benedict and of Japanese culture, including tattoos done in the traditional style. Today someone sent me this note:

I love this (dragon) tattoo so much. I think this would look great on me. Would you mind if I get this on my back?

I replied YES, you may get this tat on your back, just send me a picture! If you are keen on the art, but don’t want to make it permanent, you can get the image on tees and other merch on my site. So chuffed. ;D

OK having someone want your artwork permanently on their body is hardcore!! That's super cool!!!

I'll stick with buying lots of merchandise for now - I have my next 2 tattoos already planned :)
