Description: Here is a wicked cool skull design that I came up and so far it's a big hit because everyone in my house loves it. At first it was just a random sketch of a skull that had a clock on its forehead. I was listening to Pink Floyd's song 'Time' when I drew the skull you see before you now. Of course I did receive some suggestions and ideas from other members and visitors. In general I think you will like this tutorial on "how to draw a time tattoo" in the form of a skull. As you can see I left some soft looking hair on the sides of the skull's head so it looks like a decrepit decaying old man that time got to which is why he died. Time can sometimes be on your side, but ultimately it's against you because each day that goes by, brings you closer to your grave. Enjoy this lesson people.
