My Japanese Tiger and Floral Tattoo Design! :3

A friend of my family wanted me to draw a tattoo similar to this one, that he was inspired in (here)---> tattoozen.files.wordpress.com/… so I drew it and made it more original by changing the flowers into Lotuses, adding a bit more to the background and adding different style stripes on the Tiger's body, as well as it's inner ears, etc.

This is also the first time in a very long time since I drew a Tiger, so I'm really happy with the outcome.

Thanks for looking!  
(This is not traced in any way shape and form, I hand drew it as usual. If you don't believe me, then compare them together and see the differences!) I will also colour this in soon and I do not own the tattoo that was inspired for my tattoo, that tattoo belongs to it's respectful owner.
