Black and white neotraditional tattoo style illustration of a sunken tugboat shipwreck at the bottom of the ocean with a manta ray and fish swimming around it.

Black and white illustration, neotraditional tattoo style with realistic graphite/ink shading. Depict the shipwreck El Peñón de Tabaiba (a sunken tugboat), shown from the front, designed to fit vertically as a forearm tattoo (from wrist to elbow). The hull is rounded at the bow, heavily corroded, covered in rust, algae, and erosion. The main cabin is rectangular and must have EXACTLY six rectangular front-facing windows, aligned in a single row, all the same size, clearly visible, with broken glass, rust, and algae. On top of the cabin include: • one thin broken mast leaning slightly, • several thin antennas (vertical and diagonal), • a short, wide, aged exhaust pipe tilted backward, • cables or ropes descending from the bow into the sandy seabed. The wreck must look dark, decayed, and dramatic, with strong textures of rust and marine growth. The environment: deep underwater, about 30 meters, faint light beams from above, with coral and algae at the base. Fauna: • A manta ray in the foreground at the bottom of the composition, integrated with the wreck. • Three gilt-head bream fish in the background, swimming near the top around the mast and cabin, subtly integrated into the shipwreck. The composition must flow vertically, with the wreck as the central figure, haunting yet beautiful, solid and dark enough for a forearm cover-up tattoo. See more
