Amazing work. That's quite a contrast from the first sleeve to the second. Care to tell us a little about the tattoos? How you picked the designs?
Thanks for the compliments buddy. There is a fair contrast between the sleeves, my first sleeve (religious/good) I started this sleeve after the passing of my grandmother, starting with the prayer hands and then the Mary piece... I decided to carry on the theme of that arm adding the lower half (sacred heart, dove & roses)
Moving across the chest I wanted to have a good/bad theme, my mum got me a voucher for the tattoo shop for my birthday & I got the skull clock piece (with the hands showing my birth time) I used the other pieces around this to fill out the chest and make it complete.
Onto my second sleeve, the bad theme in full swing... Some say it's too much but I think it's perfect, I love how dramatic and deep the theme is & my wrist and myself pieced the whole sleeve together before starting work.
My back is my most recent & isn't complete yet, we still need to add fine details & background work... This will be spreading across my ribs and then a stomach piece ( I'm thinking along the lines of a snarling tiger)
All of my tattoos are from the same guy except for one, I love tattoos which flow and I believe sticking to the same person will help this.
Cheers,
Toby
