Blue bees, purple clouds and multi colored stars today. ️ Next session is in the end of March and will be the final session to complete the dome. Almost there.

@Oaktavia That dome/head is fantastic The hummingbirds are the best.

[Oaktavia]

@twin thanks so much man I love the hummingbirds too. I put out a few feeders in the spring and summer in our backyard. I see them every day and can hear them buzzing and chirping all around. I watch them fly up into the trees in the forest around our house. It's amazing how far I can see them fly. Sometimes they get very close and the buzzing is quite loud.

You are a fucking badass @Oaktavia
How many hours of needles knocking your skull??

[Brock]

Here’s a couple new ones for me…

[Jord]

@Oaktavia You're giving me the bug... gotta get my legs finished, haha

[GraemeE]

@Oaktavia dude EPIC DOME

[Oaktavia]

@Mister_Brue yes it brings me joy to see it working as one cohesive piece now and yep same on the other side around the hummingbirds to wrap it all up.

@Brock thanks homie guessing 16-17 or so hours with 2ish more to go. I dig your work as well those are cool. My FIL calls me Steve-O as my first name is Steven and my last name starts with an O. I dig the grapes too I like fruit tattoos i want to get more and some veggies somewhere.

@GraemeE thanks man I'm so happy with it

Legs have a lot of room more than I thought when I was getting mine done. Legs for daze.

I neglect my legs for some reason. I think I’ll need to focus on them this summer.

[Oaktavia]

@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]

@seawolf yeesh tell me about it man. I have a tattoo hangover today. After my next and final session on my head I'm going to take a break.

[seawolf]

@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?

[Oaktavia]

@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.

[seawolf]

@Oaktavia I love it!

[Mizmazzle]

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

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle thanks man!
