I'm having a huge problem on trying to figure out how to get my back piece into a Los angeles/hollywood theme. I want it to be sinisterish/dark. I already have a suicidal angel on her knees on the top of my back, with some nasty tribal around her ( which I want to the L.A theme to cover) here's what I'm thinking:

Hollywood sign
The whiskey a go go building
Capital records building
Possibly the troubadour club
Some stars from the walk of fame


But I can't find any drawing of what I'm looking for. I have drawn everything on me, two sleves, neck, hands, and part of my back. But I have trouble with landscapes. I've seen a lot of Las vegas themed back pieces, which is pretty much what I want in a L.A theme. But can't find anything to base mine off. Im a musician, so this theme means a lot to me for many reasons.

Can anyone give me some advice as to how to pull this off? Maybe other hollywood/L.A stuff to add the tattoo that I'm not thinking off. Or point me in the direction of some art/pictures in any form that would help me. I need to bring something that will help explain what I'm looking for.

Thanks a lot!
