This is really nice work. I like the bodl lines and the color and shading work on both the wings and the Elephant.
A tip when sketching, draw lightly so that way if you need to erase something it's not as visible anymore.

Love the bold lines! What type of ink did you use? When I saw this, it did look like it would be an interesting/neat tattoo! I adore the wing's rainbow colors the most. I am not sure what an elephant means in any culture, but having an elephant for a tattoo would still be cool!

The rough draft in the background is not fully erased, and the elephant's gray shading seems a little messy/more straight than curvy for shadows across the skin, bu I love the idea in general and the vibrant color choice!

thanks lucky (: and i just used black sharpie for the ink and colored pencil for the rest. yeah i need to work on my shading techniques but overall i think it came out pretty good (:

elephants i have been told symbolize good luck and i definitely need all the luck i can get haha
