How could I not be stoked on an alien eating a spaceship!! While doing this jester I couldn't help but wonder if this is my style of traditional tattoo,fat shapes and a lot more black in there than apparent, I feel the same about the gypsy, the formula is the same just the drawing is more refined.
Some pics from the last couple three weeks.It was kind of a crazy start this year with tons of new projects and too much drawing time outside of work but finally getting to bring a few to fruition. The chest piece took a bit,but dude was coming from Afghanistan to get tattooed,and Zombie traveled from Arizona,really fun tattoos,pretty glad they came to me.
I know I posted this backpiece before,but I was going through the photo archive and figured it would be fun to put these up in progress,I wish it would let me upload all of the photos but 5 seems to be the limit so that's whatcha get.
Some stuff that I got good photos of from recent weeks,I just got a rotary from Special Technique,and just kinda using it on everything to figure out what all the hoopla is about...Pretty fun to use but not feeling like it changes my game much.Regardless I do like his machine design so if you are into them things try one out. Also did a t-shirt design for my new band,again in reverse and I'm gonna run it to my guy tomorrow to get some made....rock on!
Iv been getting away with some unconventional layouts lately, although they may not make the whole image visible from one angle ,I think It gives the tattoo more movement
This mermaid tattoo is probably the most adorable image I'v ever done,pretty stoked on the artichoke also. Im not the japanese tattoo guy at O'Reilly's so when I get to rock one out Its totally satisfying.
