My! You've got A LOT of tattoos, Yeti! ;D
Congrats on your new tattoo, bro! It looks great - I like the font style. It's got something mystic to it, just like the Yeti...
PS: Do you ever get refreshers for these tattoos? Meaning, do you ever have to have them redrawn (outlines) to keep the colours vibrant?
Yeti:
If a tattoo heals properly, hence the artist does well, you stay out of the sun, and follow aftercare instructions, you really dont need a "touch up" for at least a decade. The cool thing is you can put lotion on, I prefer Lubriderm, and it will bring the vibrant colors right back out, making a tattoo look brand new, even if it's many years old. Outlines never fade, but colors can years later. In my experience, got my first tattoo in 1989 at Sunset Strip Tattoo in Hollywood, and tons more since, touch ups are only required when a lil dot is accidentally missed during the first session due to all of the ink that doesn't go in the skin and runs. Out of around 65 tattooes, I think I needed 3 touch ups, which artists do for free for life anyway, if it's a quality shop. But, if you go to a different shop for a touch up, they will obviously charge ya. It's pretty taboo to touch someone elses work and highly frowned upon. ;)
PigPen:
Very nice ink. I noticed the strategic placing of the hands also. lol
Looks great though.
Yeti:
