Meaning that a layer of skin…[Read more]

but you should definitely check out the work they do and make sure that they’re someone you’d like to show you the ropes
And when i went in about 2 weeks ago to talk to someone about my apprenticeship they basically asked me to bring some other art in, whatever type…[Read more]

I miss it there.

But best of luck on your tattooing, i’m looking to begin too but i’m going through an apprenticeship myself. I just feel it’s the right way to go about things as far as becoming a tattoo artist is concerned…

Like others have said, A phoenix sortof needs color to do it justice… I’m such a conformist, lol.

awesome piece though, i definitely like how it goes all the way down to the waistline instead of stopping at lower back….. I’d say go a little darker behind the scroll with text on it, so it will add some depth, but im sure the…[Read more]

Best of luck with it man!

I look forward to seein’ the finished product. How long was this sit for these outlines?

With that said… the guy did a great job, so it’s nice to see you got your money’s…[Read more]

I wouldn’t mind buying…[Read more]

But thanks again, it’s good to be on a forum with great art… i’ve already seen dozens of inspiring pieces on here.

As much of a fan of color i am, i like a nice black and grey piece. So it took 2 and a half hrs huh? If it’s not asking too much, how much did a piece that size run you? because i’m thinking of a pretty good sized piece for my ribs, and i know…[Read more]

But i do draw alot, and even as drawings these would be impressive peices.

Good work.
