Description
This is it, the most complex Celtic knot I've created to date. The knot took about 20 hours simply to design, then add to that the roughly ten hours it took for inking. Basically, I spent 30 hours drawing inside a circle with a 7.5 inch diameter. *massages hand*Media: Technical pen

It's really beautiful. Consider making a vector version? It's would balance out the line thickness.

Thank you! The variation in line thickness is instentional to bring out the positive and negative space.

Wow, this is fantastic! I draw knots too but my symmetry kinda fails and I've never made anything this complex!
Love it!
And I hope your hand is better

TT__TT I got carpal tunnel just looking at it! I draw knots myself, so I can appreciate the difficulty of designing, drawing, and inking this one. The design is nice, and you kept it almost perfectly symmetrical. I really love the underlying circle shapes inside. Very impressive!

nw THIS is something I never would be able to come up with or even follow exactly the logic way through and be all this exact and proper with the lineart.
Congratulation. Brilliant work - amazes me!

*blink* wow no offence, but thts just too damn much. still, it did attract me, so ill ask, do you do requests? its so hard to find an artist I know to do knots since most cant, so i turned to da. its significantly less complicated (my idea) but a bit more original. i thought of it for use as several different things, particularly part of a pair of tattos though. let me know if your interested k?
and in case the first time wasnt enough: wow...

oh wow, im sorry, i just sounded like an ass... 'more original' sorry about that, it didnt come out right... meaning something you dont see as often as a straight up knot.

freehand?!?, did you use a compass, ruler, planning?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
This was done freehand, however with a pencil sketching underneath the ink. I used a compass and a ruler to plan the image.
