The tattoo will be a half arm sleeve. There will be two sides of the tattoo, vertically. The first vertical side will be a sandy cobble stone road, leading up to a castle, with a solider walking up the road. He will have a shield on his back, sword on his side, and holding is head up high. On the sides of the road there will be lush trees with wheat fields in the distance. On the other side, there will be the opposite effectively. A burning house in the background, solider walking down a dark cobble stone road dragging sword and shield. Withered trees with burnt crops in the distance. Because the tattoo is vertical, the trees will meet in the middle and have the one side lush, the other withered.

The tattoo is a full black-and-gray sleeve designed in a realistic country and outdoor style that runs from the shoulder down the entire arm. At the top of the sleeve there is a detailed pickup truck set in a rural scene, surrounded by trees and shaded landscape elements that create depth. Flowing down the arm is a winding dirt road that connects the different parts of the design, giving the sleeve a continuous storytelling feel. Around the middle of the arm there is a dirt bike incorporated into the scenery, reinforcing the rugged, off-road theme. The lower portion of the sleeve transitions into darker shading with firearms integrated into the design, blending with the road, terrain, and background textures. The overall tattoo uses heavy black and gray shading, realistic line work, and layered scenery to create a cohesive countryside theme that feels gritty, outdoorsy, and strongly connected to rural life.
