      Nice one @EdH.  The inner forearm was one of the toughest, most painful spots for me, especially when it comes to the more ambitious work.

      For sure. Now that we’re onto the back of the arm it’s a breeze.

      Take the dive...

        And here’s the two that went in today. Should finish the sleeve in the middle of the summer.

            @Matt I was hoping for pictures from your urologist appointment…

                    Bet it sucked going in though.

                        He said he overloaded the black in the areas where he thought the color might fall out. It should lighten up around the knuckles and fingers as it heals. Hands are tough.

                          Yeah, the hydra that went across my elbow, the snake head needed be be touched up 3 times. Moving parts are a bugger.

                            I messed up an elbow falling off a bike. I did NOT bother having it touched up. Wabi sabi is preferable to elbow tats.

                              Agreed. My guy and I have agreed that we're leaving both sides of the elbow alone on the right arm.

                              Speaking of which, seeing him again in mid-April, and looking forward to seeing what he's drawn up for me.

                                I had to get my hands blasted a few times before the ink looked like it would stay...sucked every time.

                                      @iammortalcombat Thanks for not showing the bottom of the cheeks! XD But seriously, I'm digging this, especially on the scaly wings and the snake.

                                          @EdH Yep I got my first four tattoos at 17...pretty much everywhere but my crotch, bottoms of my feet, top of my head are tattooed. The black took well except for a few areas that flubbed up while healing. I should have taken off work and babied it more after the second session. I lost some of the black on the tip of my elbow and inner upper arm. The scabs next to my armpit were so thick and disgusting and horribly painful. Black ooze came out of it...so there is some greyish scar tissue instead of black in those areas. You can still sort of see the sunflower that was previously on my elbow. That part swelled up for weeks. It was the worst healing pain I've had so far. 0/10 would not recommend unless you really want to go for it. Only two sessions was foolish but it was done quick.
