A detailed blackwork tattoo on a person's back showing Yggdrasil, two ravens, and a winged Vegvísir compass.

I need a tattoo design where the focal point of the upper back is the root of Yggdrasil (The World Tree) and serves as the central anchor. Its trunk starts between my shoulder blades, and its roots extend downward. The branches split and stretch upward and outward over my shoulders. On the tops of my shoulders, Huginn and Muninn (The Ravens) are positioned on the top of each shoulder. They appear to emerge directly from the stony branches of the World Tree, flying forward toward my chest. On my Upper Chest is the compass: The Vegvísir sits dead center on my chest, just below the collarbones. The tips of the ravens' wings sweep down across my chest to frame this central compass.
