Tattoo Design Brief

Hey there, I am going to be as descriptive as possible my desires for this tattoo. This is going to be a long message, so please forgive me. I'm very passionate about making this the best tattoo for myself and something VERY UNIQUE, and I do not want to miss anything. First off, I definitely will need your help in creating artistic symbols that are unique to my characteristic traits that I want in my design. I have been thinking deeply about my overall theme along with symbols and art work that represent who I am, my accomplishments, my personality, etc. I am having a hard time finding references of unique symbols and designs I want representing me. I want my design to be my style and I want it to be very unique. I want to fall in love with the design. I really need your help with your artistic mind to help me come up with unique and distinctive designs that symbolize me. Please communicate with me during the design process if you have any questions about what objects or symbols you think I would like and come up with something different and cool! I am a very fast responder to text and emails. I'm very serious about this. Ill first start off with a theme that came to my mind recently and how it could possibly tie in well with all of the other individual specific details and designs I want included about myself.
THEME- SAMSON PULLING DOWN THE TEMPLE OF DAGON
-I have a sample picture attached of samson pulling down the temple, but it is not the exact one that I like. Please use your artistic mind and find the best picture that incorporates lots of details. In my mind, I imagine a beautiful scenery temple of great detail. I imagine clouds, rays peaking though the pillars onto Samson as he is chained between the pillars. I imagine a crowd of people in attendance to watch Samson. Then, Samson prays to God to give him strength and he pulls down the entire temple. I imagine the entire temple being pulled down by Samson. Samson's story illustrates how God wants to enable us to fulfill the calling He designed for me. I too, want to fulfill Gods purpose for my life and I want God to guide me in His will he chose for me. I have always told God that I am nothing without Him, but with Him, I can do anything. As a young boy, I have found my passion and inspiration from strength, courage and overcoming a lot of adversity. Mentally and physically. I was a small kid growing up and I had to overcome a lot of adversity in my life. I grew to be strong and I am 6'5 with a muscular body. I found passion in working out and people who know me, know I love being strong and it is one of my traits. When I was younger I did not work hard in anything unless I really wanted something. It wasn't, until I was 18 years old that I discovered my special trait of never giving up until I achieved something. I failed in my first academic college course when I was 18. My parents tried to send me off to some private school that would ruin my life at the time. I begged and pleaded them not to do it and to give me one more shot at school and to not kick me out. The next time that academic college class started, I aced it and I continued to work towards school and my goal of becoming successful. I went on and got hired at my Fire Dept. I continued to work hard in school and obtained my degree as a paramedic as well. I have a passion for setting a goal that I truly desire and working as hard as I can, focusing nonstop until I master it. These are just a couple of examples, but I work hard like this in anything and everything of something i truly desire and want to do. From that time on, I am very unique in the way I prepare for anything that requires focus and energy. I prepare and study through great depths until I achieve something that I truly want.

The way that I think and how I am as a person with some of the design details I desire and want can be tied in well with Samson tearing down the temple. In other ways, can you think of something else that can be a better theme with a better image that would be a great "Theme" that fits the details I desire of this tattoo design? I want the BEST of the BEST and the best story matched with the BEST theme. If there is anything that you like better, or would fit better, or symbols that I cannot think of that fit me, please do it. Lets be unique and make the a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for reading this and I really appreciate your hard work towards this. If there is ANYTHING you need to know, please call me or message me and we can get to this right away! I can also provide you my number if you are interested in talking on the phone for details and information. Thanks again!

Requirements

Must have

• THEME- SAMSON PULLING DOWN THE TEMPLE OF DAGON-
  I attached a few pictures of samson and also of the temple of dagon. I could not find 1 single picture on the internet that had everything i wanted in the picture. My goal is have one beautiful realism temple of dagon with samson in the middle of the temple between big tall pillars. I want samson to be pushing the pillars with all of his might and have the picture to show the building collapsing with lots of people running for their lives in the audience Meaning, i want the entire temple showing in the back ground with samson in the middle of the picture as he pushed the long tall pillars down while the audience running for their lives as the temple comes crashing down. So, please pick out all the details from all the temples and samson pictures i have for references. I also want the rays and clouds to peak through the temple. I have attached references of the rays and clouds I prefer.
  
  FIREFIGHTER/PARAMEDIC-
  - I do not want the focus of my tattoo to be on this. I do not want a picture of a firefighter either. Me as a firefighter paramedic is part of me, but It is not something I want a ton of focus on with my design. I'm actually having a difficult time thinking and finding images that I like, that reference me as a firefighter and a paramedic. Please think of unique ways that can accomplish this part. I have attached a fire/medic symbol that is unique, but that is just an example. If you can find something better, please do. Maybe that attached fire/medic symbol with a moderate torn skin appearance, in a form of a tiger/bear scratch, included with some sort of meaningful strength and courage feather/plant/vine of some sort around the image would be cool. Also, maybe around this symbol It could have a transition area of smoke and a tiny flame of some sort? Smoke could be another characteristic of a firefighter. The alabama red X passing through somewhere in the total design might be pretty cool too and a red line is also actually a representation of a firefighter! Just a thought.
  
  ALABAMA RED X- *TRASH POLKA STYLE* Please read details below.
  I really love the red x design you did. Looks awesome. I really like the placement of it as well! The red x symbolizes to me, the state of Alabama and that I love Alabama football without some redneck design lol. Something else I thought about that might be cool to represent Alabama football is by somehow adding a Tusk? Alabama footballs mascot is an elephant. Alabama football has a unique story how they are called "Crimson Tide" with the mascot elephant. Alabama players were described as huge red elephants, aggressive and fierce that appeared to be rushing out of a red stained wave. I was thinking if somehow we could incorporate the same red x and a creative illustrated tusk? I dont necessarily want a elephant tattooed on me, so I thought maybe an aggressive/unique looking Tusk, or two Tusk, from an elephant would be unique. Alabama football is also known for the Hounds Tooth Print and maybe it would be a good idea to create a cool looking Tusk with a Hounds Tooth pattern in the tusk? Maybe, alongside of the Red X, or at the end of one of the points of the X, somewhere in the design, it can make a wave bend, giving the appearance of the red sea around the Tusk, giving that feel of fierce elephants coming from the red sea, symbolling Alabama Crimson Tide?
  
  
  AGGRESSIVE/UNIQUE TUSK (or two) FROM AN ELEPHANT- Input the tusk the way I want it with the red x. Read about the Alabama Red X (above) for further details.
  
  WINGS, DOVE, RAYS, CLOUDS- I love wings, doves, rays and a few clouds. If you could somehow makes the wings and doves significantly unique that would be awesome. I would like the rays to shine through the temple of dagon onto Samson as he is tearing down the temple of dagon.
  
  JOSHUA 1:9.
  Lets play around with the font and the placement here. Maybe this can fit somewhere around the area where the fire/medic is. Maybe it would look good in red font somewhere near the red x in trash polka style. Lets be creative and be unique.
  
  "Chi Rho". Justin Bieber has a "X" design and I really like that font of that. If you could play around with the font and be creative on this symbol, that would be great. Maybe, match the P letter with the same X font that just beiber has. See reference photos for details.
  
  GRAPH, MAP AND COMPASS (I dont want a map or compass, but the graph, map and compass describe me. Please use your artistic skills to replace the compass and map with other symbols that will mesh in well with the graph lines that represent me)-
  I am not a fan of the compass tattoo. Ive never liked compass tattoo's, and think it cliche and I just dont like it. I also don't like sea ships either by the way. However, I do love the meaning of the compass. Please help me think of another design that fits the same meaning, just not a compass. However, I really like the Graph lines and I think that is cool! I am neutral on the map design. I love its meaning in entirety, but I'm not completely sold on the map look in particular. I need help with this particular creative aspect that means the same thing with a different design to represent that.
  
  3 CROSSES/NAILS- See reference picture of what it looks like. I also want this design placed on my right rear delt muscle area. So, please have this aligned in this area along with GOD IS GREATER THAN THE HIGHS AND LOWS SYMBOL.
  
  GOD IS GREATER THAN THE HIGHS AND LOWS SYMBOL -See reference picture. It is a symbol. I want this same font symbol that is in the picture, right underneath the 3 crosses/nails.
  
  TRANSITIONS-
  I like cool looking transition lines between pieces of designs. I think smoke would be cool around the firefighter paramedic piece I mentioned in detail earlier in this text. Maybe, a laurel wreath or a unique looking vine that has meaning can be added somewhere in this design.
  
  FEATHER/OLIVE BRANCH/LAUREL WREATH- Just a thought. Help me here. If you can think of a cool placement of a strength feather, olive branch or a laurel wreath, please do. If its only fitting to add one of them, just do that. blend it in well please. Thank you.

Nice to have

• All the above that I mentioned.

Should not have

• Mechanical gears. Compass. Map - No thank you.
