[SIZE=“1”]…aka, a thinly veiled ‘collaborative project’ which I can’t actually offer any payment for. If a mod decides this belongs in Drawing & Design, go ahead and move it :)[/SIZE]

**The story:** I’ve been asked to design a large back-piece for a friend of mine which she’ll get inked. Unfortunately, my work commitments - among other things - don’t leave me with much free time to do this job properly.

**The brief:** She wants to cover her back in quotes (As in, words). Here’s the list of quotes she wants: [click here](http://mynameisyakub.com/tat).  
Each quote should be somehow stylised and prettified (:P). Maybe incorporated into some kind of illustration relevant to the quote ([click here](http://mynameisyakub.com/tat/example.jpg) for an example), or simply presented in some awesome typography. Artwork should be in vector format - Illustrator, preferablyc

I’ll pick the best ones and piece them together into one big artwork.  
Once the inking takes place, I’ll post a pic for you all to see!  
And no, I won’t be taking credit for your work. I will be passing on the names of all ‘winning’ artists and you will be credited accordingly :love\_heart:

So I guess the ‘prize’ would be seeing your artwork permanently inked on someone :xpilot:

Who’s keen? :calvin:
