      @Matt thighs in particular have a ton of room. Like back patch sized pieces. I remember seeing the stencil for one of my big side-of-thigh tattoos and thought holy shit that's big. Goes from knee to hip.

        @Oaktavia you’re going hard with the tattoos and it all looks fantastic!

            @Oaktavia It takes a lot out of you! My last one was about 4 hours of heavy American traditional work, and it was brutal. I can't imagine getting back-to-back tattoos like you're doing. The results are clearly working for you though. Is the snake something relatively recent, or was that there before you started working on your head?

              @seawolf 3-4 hours is more than enough for one session for me. I usually do 2-2.5 on my head. The snake was originally started 10 years ago and was subsequently fixed and finished last month.

                  @Oaktavia WOw!! That fill work really adds so much cohesiveness to the whole dome piece. Really love how it ties it all together.

                  In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                          Got the dragon scaled out yesterday, and added this fun Tanuki for our Japan trip tattoo, since we couldn’t get the done in Japan.
