Contest Brief

I want a nice piece of art to be tattooed on my thight.

Explanation:
This tattoo is a symbol of myself changing.
Time won't be wasted anymore and instead will be converted to fire ( meaningful work ).

The image consists of a few elements.
From top to bottom:
1. a phoenix escaping from the top portion of the hourglass ( fuelled by it )
2. an hourglass cracked and letting some material flow upward (dust or maybe liquid gold)
3. bottom portion of hourglass made out of subtle skull ( glass material ) with the mouth open
4. sand/dust going upward in the skulls mouth

Tips:
I want the tattoo to be clear and understandable at first glance.
No emphasis on the skull, you have to look at it closer to see it.
I would like to see color beeing used scarcely.
Realistic vivid fire.
Try and make the tattoo fade on me.

Object do not absolutely have to be ordered like explained as long as you show the same idea behind it. See explanation section.

Both mahmud and fahkri also inspired me... I will modify Rayan's job and start a very cheap contest to just make it more suitable for a tattoo and get final suggestions... keep in touch guys and remember to ask me if you feel cheated / something is unfair...
With luv

Fakhri is the only one that understood that the pile of dust had to be UNDER the hourglass

Okay! To be honest, this is my very first experience on Freelancer. I had a little trouble using the chat with you people and I might have given information to peculiar people that others might not have gotten. SO!
I will grant the award to Rayan A. since we had the luck to chat and exchange a lot and I loved his attitude ( sum up the letters of this word and you'll get 100%... 1+12+12+9+21+4+5 = 100 lol... old internet motivational shitpost but still... there is a message here ) . But keep in mind that I will keep all the other 5 stars artists in my contacts. If you feel like anything is unfair here just talk to me and I'm ready to pay for your time. Freelancer is great as long as people using it are fair and honest.
I'm truely happy to be here
With luv,

Ok I guess I need to make it easier to understand and read sooo :
from top to bottom there is 4 objects and everything have to be symetrical ( kinda new requirement )
1.phoenix has fire ( COLORED ) on wing.. everything else is sharp and easily distinguishable.
2. it comes out of a crack in the hourglass... there is a hourglass... under it...
3. the bottom round section of hourglass is a skull .. subtle one... not mean....mouth open
4. under it there is a pile of dust floating/lifting/going upward/ rising in order to penetrate/enter/go in the skull's mouth
5. there's a plus if you add a lightning bolt going upward between the dust and the bottleneck of the hourglass

First person to meet these requirements even if it is ugly as F I will grant award
Thanks everybody

OK I guess this HAS to be my last comment... I decided that I want it absolutely symetrical, non-cartoonish , clear and not too much details there is a PILE of sand... UNDER... the skull with mouth open... and the sand LIFTS, goes upward toward THE OPEN MOUTH....enters it... no mean look to the skull... The first person to meet every requirements listed since the begining of this project will win... even if it is ugly... thanks to everybody...

Wow! much better results!
Mahmud , I'd like the skull to be in glass and less cartoonish. I'd like the tattoo and the phoenix to be simetrical. The sand has to enter the skull's mouth ( opened) from a pile of dust laying on the ground same goes for Rayan... Wonderful job... I migh send money to both of you and not only the winner.
THANKS!
