Description: It's been so long since I drew and submitted a tribal tattoo design which is why I wanted to do another. This next tutorial that I am about to submit was drawn while I was live two days ago. I think it came out clean and awesome enough for anyone to have it placed on their bodies as a nice tattoo. If you have a tattoo fetish, or you just plain love tattoo art, you will love learning “how to draw a tribal lion”, step by step. Instead of making the tribal lion look too complex to draw or replicate, I drew out the sketch in a simple format, making it easy for all you novice artist out there that love drawing tribal. There is some different possibilities that you can choose to change when drawing the tribal lion. For one, you can choose to use a different color of ink that you normally use to color in your typically black tattoo design. Secondly, you can switch up the design by leaving the ink black, but instead of leaving the white areas, you can use a pastel color like a baby blue, or pink, or you can choose to use a fiery red color. The possibilities are endless when it comes to drawing tribal designs. All I know is, I have a lot of fun drawing tribal art. I think you guys will find that this tutorial will be easy to follow, and simple to replicate. I need to bounce on out of here because I have like eight more lessons going up today. Have fun learning “how to draw a tribal lion, step by step”. Peace out people, and happy 2010!
