7/6/12





This guy came in with the bracelet, the writing and the food prints.  He was looking for some black and gray filler to complete a sleeve.  He didn't really care too much what it was, he just "liked my style" and let me go to town.  He had about 2-3 hours to get something started so I just started making stuff up.  I like it,  It's just a start though, I still intend to work those gradients out, darken up the darks and bring out the highlights.  I want to go back in with a liner and sharpen some of the edges as well. 




This was done in memory of her dad "Harv".  I think the shading on the banner is too dark and that it should have been done with different colors maybe.  IDK, I thought having it match the colors in the chrome would make the chrome look more reflective.  I'm sure I'll get to see this one healed because this customer is a regular.  It was a fun piece to do.




I didn't do this tattoo,  I drew the machine (outline) though.  I would have liked to spend more time working on the sketch, but this guy was really anxious to get the tattoo done.  My co-worker Alex is wearing it and Nicole tattooed it.  Also... he has an Elmo tattoo, I had nothing to do with that!
