Fridays session, We did some more shading up at the neckline and added some blossoms, Some blossoms arent in the photo as they are wrapping around on my side of rib cage. But every session makes such a major difference at this point. I didnt set up a time for next month yet, but Ill update as I go.
Ok these are cell phone pics from right after the session, Its hard to tell what it is, but in the end the swirls and negative space mixed with water will fill in some area, here is where my cover up is beginning, you can see the old tattoo in this photo.
You can see it wrap around here, you can see the faint lines where water ripples and such will be
Update: Thursdays session, seemed to be one of those extremely painful and long making little progress, but that is usually the case when doing some outline and shading. It all needs done and is all progress. Next months (May 4) color session should really show the progress. Thursdays session focused on the dragon and the tree trunk wrap around to my tummy. This also included a cover up. I will get a good pic of the wrap and front, its really peeling now so it looks crappy in pics, high quality cameras make this worse lol..:)

After Session:
Do you guys think I should do it like this except with the Gibson guitar instead of the fender? What really matters to me is the realism. I don’t want my tattoo to look like this:
The first fender you posted here is amazing.. however you need to decide what you really want. the 2nd is bad, but I get your question. I like the entire guitar but i cant visualize half of one unless you do something around it like a sleeve or something. However depending on your artist, and b/c doing the guitar as a whole would make it smaller, it could make the realness and quality not so great due to putting all the detail into a smaller tattoo.. you need to decide what YOU want then find a GREAT artist..he can then personalize it and make it your own. you start the idea, knowing what you want half or entire guitar it is the artists job to help add to your idea and make it a great piece. I agree the realness is important, changes the entire tattoo. ya dig?
