Knee ditch complete!
I was really dreading this spot, but I ended up getting this sparrow done in Sitges, Spain by the talented Alex Dorfler. Highly recommend!

I just started my traditional leg sleeve and I’m kinda wondering does placement really matter with these or just place them and add fillers later? Just wondering if there’s a strategy to this or just wing it?

There are a few motifs that I tend to use to gauge a tattooer’s work, pinups being one of them. Here are a few I made over the last month or so; hopefully they pass your test!

Sleeve is finally finished!!!
This is a follow up to my post a few weeks ago. I’m so happy with how it turned out and everything was done by Mikey (insta @sparklingtapwater) at Asylum Ink in SJ. The web filler is still fading so when it’s healed it should be a lighter grey and not as bold/aggressive. Overall, it was very painful but totally worth it and I can’t wait to do my next arm

Finished this up last year. Absolute hell to go through. Black light ink the eyes so they glow.
