    Default Tattoo artwork help required..

    I am about embark on my first tattoo in the next couple of weeks, but I'm having a problem getting the art work sorted. This design is from the back of the wife wedding dress and I want it on my back around my shoulder blades. I took a semi decent picture of it and took a basic pencil outline from that, I scanned that back in and halved it so I could concentrate on getting it even and symetrical. But having limited PS knowledge I have kind have drawn a blank now.. Is there any kind soul out there who could help???

    I would like the lines that make up the deisgn to be even in size and smooth.
    Cheers in advance and plenty of karma waiting... :thumbs

    You need someone who's good with vector graphics and Illustrator. I'm useless with the pen tool in PS, but I had a go anyway.

    It still needs some work, so I've put a link for the psd file as well.

    I drew it all in illustrator, it's not filled in but I will do so if required, i'm not sure if it needs touching up but I just drew vector graphics around your intiial design...
