small child, viking.

here is one of the tattoos i made today. its not often that i receive the quick benefits of finishing a tattoo the day i start it...for the record, i love doing tattoos that can be completed in under 2 hours. "custom" is not synonymous with "huge".

bloody mess

no single tattooer shaves half as bad as i do...check this out. its fricken horrible. seriously. i should never be left alone w a safety razor ever again.
knee cap rose tattoo.

painting style, tattooed

this is my first solid attempt to tattoo the way i paint. i have been painting this sort of "cyber-veined" style figure work for about 6 years now and have always turned down the clients that seek it. finally a lady who is a painter and tattooer asked for it. through my disclosure about the way it would be done, and then her response, i decided to test the style out on skin. i do not typically like "experimenting" when it comes to tattooing. since she understood the risk and more over the commitment, we decided to give it a shot. after many hours, (i honestly dont know how long it took) here are the results.
enjoy.
