pics of new 3/4 sleeve tattoo outline

i'm guessing that's you in the av? what is that, it looks like a japanese theme, with lillies and koi or something?

Yup. Big koi wrapped around a lotus with cherry blossums falling apart in the water.

Everything in the tattoo stands for something personal (I know the meaning of all of the Japanese tattoos unlike most of the people that get them because they look cool or whatever).

Next one, I'm thinking a 3/4 sleeve of an oni and a foo dog in sepia tone with smoke swirls as the background. I'm working on the drawings now. (I draw my own tattoo designs.....) Should be a fun one next winter.

Heres a couple pics of it. The first one looks dull because of my camera. It's actually really bright. You can kinda see how bright it is in the second picture.

Not to **** your nuts, but i think your palm tattoo is fuggin awesome. I really dig the dino's as well. HTF did the palm tattoo feel? I have 5 tats but can imagine that a palm tattoo can realllllyyy not be a cakewalk.

my palms have been the worst out of my tattoos. i thought my ribs would be the worst because i'm so skinny, but palms were so much worse. luckily though, after getting my palms, everything else should be relatively easy. the start of this sleeve there wasn't a single time where i was like "oh fuck"

Gotta catch 'em all!

MEOWITH!

nice work

Thanks man.

I'm diggin the palm work, but I'd never get a job in my field if I ever did that. Tie and jacket daily for me.

I take it he used a #5 or some thick *** needle for the outline on the skull and bones? I think that's what my guy did on the thick lines in mine.
