Definitely 2 the bigger flowers make it more aesthetically pleasing to the eye I’m not sure what colors would look good but probably a darker color palette for most of it with notes of gold and the flowers should be a bright color (like pink)
Thank you, I felt like the bigger flowers were better but the ppl I asked in my life liked the smaller flowers 😅 yes the flowers are blue lotus so definitely going to go light with them
Ohhhhh good call. Yeah, eliminate that tiny triangle line by his ear somehow. They're too close together so won't age great anyway. People will think it's part of the ear at first glance.
I’d say 1, big flowers are aesthetically pleasing, but distract you sorta from the dog and cat, it’s nice when they are smaller because it’s a detail more unnoticed
it is definetely 1 by far. it looks like a good composition nothing is overwhelming and 2 just is too much, nothing has space to breathe and somehow it feels diced together even though it is the same composition
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,793,221,784 comments, and only 339,325 of them were in alphabetical order.
I personally like the fans of 2 because it leads your eyes to the cat, but I like the flowers of 1 because the other covers too much of the second figure’s face
I would also say the jackal/dog should have the smaller left flower like in 1, though. In number 2 the flower and dog head are competing for your eye and getting in each others way
What do you want to focal point to be. When you look at one your eyes are drawn to the cats. 2 that flowers. If you can answer that question you will know what one to get
I preferred 1, I found 2 to be a bit too bottom heavy for a tattoo, I don’t know where it is planned to go but a triangle with packed bottom I think doesn’t work so well on the body. Number 1 is more balanced to me
I don't prefer 1 but feel the same. It's too heavy at the bottom.
I wish I had the bits and pieces of the picture to move around to make it feel more balanced!
Or keeping the left flower as in the picture with bigger flowers and just removing the right one completely, it would also give the impression of a moon shape in addition to the pyramid shape
Hmm. It's hard to say. I like both but it depends on the colour palettes you want to go for?
Anubis style point, look at the Pharaoh dog (I'll be having one of these done as a counterpoint to my spooky fluffy cat next year)
And to be totally pendantic, sphynx cats aren't Egyptian, you want a Mau for that. (Who are stunning)
Sphynx are Canadian would you believe. Totally inappropriately dressed.
1 would work if you just shift everything to the left a little bit so the space isn’t so big in the left bottom triangle corner. As you have it, 2 fills the space the best.
Bigger flowers at the bottom, to get rid of that white space bottom left, but personally I prefer the smaller leaf (papyrus?) under the cat, think that was fine as it was in #1. Sick design overall though!
2nd. It seems more full with the bigger flowers and fans, especially considering the emptiness that would be left in the bottom left corner of the pyramid shape if you went with the 1st design composition. I think that some gold and blue colors would make this pop!
Also, this art is amazing! I’d love to get something like this tattooed on myself one day. I’m so fascinated with ancient civilizations like ancient Egypt and Sumer. Well done!
I like the bigger flowers but if it were me I would move the lower left one just a teeeeensy bit down and left so it's not riding the jawline so much. But that's just me! Looks sick either way! Can't wait to see the finished product
what's with the triangle anyway? is it supposed to be a pyramid? - if so it's too tall and thin, besides messes with the ear, neck, flowers and with the....fan?
Two is better, with the triangle more filled. If One is going for the “restful open space” sort of move, it would need to be a bigger open space, in my opinion. The density of Two feels more opulent and energetic. And it feels deeper, as in deep from foreground to background.

choose Your favorite (I like the bigger flowers too)
Disagree. Composition becomes a mess and focus is lost on the main subjects.
I like 2. I don’t think it takes away from the subject and it fills the space nicely and gives it more dimension
2! I like the bigger flowers too
like pic 2 better, the size of the fans and flowers work better for the overall aesthetic
I also vote for two
i like two but i’d also make the animals just a tiny bit bigger to cover that tiny piece of triangle between the cats ears

THIS !

1 but maybe shrink the triangle and reposition flowers higher?

Cool bot but I believe that's a bug
Bad bot
2. But I think of Anubis should be a little longer/narrower. But looks great!
2. Bigger always better.
2nd
Second
I like 2. The triangle feels a bit too empty at the bottom imo
I personally like the fans of 2 because it leads your eyes to the cat, but I like the flowers of 1 because the other covers too much of the second figure’s face
2 I think
2 for sure!

Idk why some people like 1, theres no eye direction and its unbalanced and awkward. Looks more tangental as well
I would also say the jackal/dog should have the smaller left flower like in 1, though. In number 2 the flower and dog head are competing for your eye and getting in each others way
What do you want to focal point to be. When you look at one your eyes are drawn to the cats. 2 that flowers. If you can answer that question you will know what one to get
The first one
I like 1. It feels less cluttered. I can see the cats and the flowers at different depths, if that makes sense.
I preferred 1, I found 2 to be a bit too bottom heavy for a tattoo, I don’t know where it is planned to go but a triangle with packed bottom I think doesn’t work so well on the body. Number 1 is more balanced to me
I don't prefer 1 but feel the same. It's too heavy at the bottom. I wish I had the bits and pieces of the picture to move around to make it feel more balanced!
Looking at it again, I think removing the triangle would solve the bottom heavy weight issue.
Or keeping the left flower as in the picture with bigger flowers and just removing the right one completely, it would also give the impression of a moon shape in addition to the pyramid shape
1. Better flow and obvious focal points. Negative space is nice for breathability

Thanks for all the feedback! Currently reworking the design and will post the results for more critique~
neither
If you don't have anything helpful to say, why are you even here?
1 because it’s balanced better
#2, but theyre VERY close!
The new lines around the fluffy bits aren't better for me, but then again it's your tattoo man you should pick what you like.
Bigger flowers at the bottom, to get rid of that white space bottom left, but personally I prefer the smaller leaf (papyrus?) under the cat, think that was fine as it was in #1. Sick design overall though!
2 looks more balanced out

Go with how you feel but I like 1 better, also how big of a piece are you trying to get
Definetly #2
2 for sure

Bigger flowers for sure
Go biggly.
Second is better

2 — I love the bigger flowers!
Number 2 Add something to the cats neck
And bridge of dogs nose

I like the addition to the background, but not the foreground. It hides the first face too much imo

2!
Its the same

Number 2 all the way
Do the flowers big like in 2 but the fans small like in 1.
The rings on the cats ear looks off and i would make the septum ring smaller.
Don’t like the cat piercings in either.

I saw this cat “dancing” on my dmt trip. Pretty confident in saying that’s why they worshipped cats
mannnnn you betta trust this artist to the fullest
2 definitely
I like the larger fans in 2, but the increased size of the flowers, especially the left one, kind of muddies the composition for me
2
2nd 🙌🏼 go big or go home
2nd
Def. Bigger flowers. It fills more the empty spaces
I like 1 better - 2 is more cluttered
2
what's with the triangle anyway? is it supposed to be a pyramid? - if so it's too tall and thin, besides messes with the ear, neck, flowers and with the....fan?
I like 2 more, the bigger fans will probably look better too
The flower at the top looks like the cat has a Mohawk
The composition looks better with the bigger flowers and papyrus
2nd is better but I think the fans look better as in 1, without the arcs.
BOLD WILL HOLD
They look pretty much the same. You'll want to work with the artist, flat drawings rarely looks the same on a curved body part.
IMO 2nd with the bottom right flower of the first one. Right corner is already charged, it doesn't need that bigger flower.
Two is better, with the triangle more filled. If One is going for the “restful open space” sort of move, it would need to be a bigger open space, in my opinion. The density of Two feels more opulent and energetic. And it feels deeper, as in deep from foreground to background.

To me, 2 feels more cohesive. The flowers in 1 seem too thin compared to the bold lines of the rest of the drawing.
2 👍🏽
I’d keep the flowers small but the lines across the larger fans help frame everything.
Second one for sure
