Heard those Chinese characters hardly ever mean what you think they do. Imagen the look on her face when she finds out it reads "this way up" or "don't give sap"

I dunno Sards, I'd be unsure about being tattooed by that bloke. There's a pretty glaring mistake on that compass/watch tatt.
Attention to detail is everything if it's going on your body.

That's a cover up....
I like his hard lines ..... besides he came up with the best idea to incorporate the Medusa in such a way that all the other tats are linked together and I CANNOT WAIT for my gargoyle to take on a cracked granite look....and my dragons wings to be made lighter with white shading......these two issues have been plaguing me for more than a year...

Its still raw. Not happy with snake in front of sword. We ran out of time. But it will be sorted out. Love the snakes other side by wolf. Love what he did to the dragon.
Must wait for it to heal before I can fully decide but I am happy with the rest. Its starting to form a story.
He needs to sort out the Gargoyle filling it with grey..and the snake in front. Just need to heal and then go back.

I thought Sards' new artist was going to ruin this thread. But he fu
cking delivered...
Bloke just plain can't do faces, which isn't an uncommon issue. But making the snakes look like some sort of retarded cocktopus? Fu
cking genius. He either knows Sards well, or just used the "dragon-fly fairy" tattoo as inspiration.

Of course its still going to scab and I am treating it so not too much ink is lost, because ink will be lost and it will all lighten up . The true picture will emerge once its healed and the redness, scabbing subsides. That's a weeks time.
But get stuck in anyway.
It's a very bold full arm that I am working towards and not everyone's cup of tea. I love the way its developing and that's all that matters.
I love the Medusa. I love the freehand work he did to blend it in.

It’s f**king horrendous. Bloke wouldn’t get a job in Invers parlours.

Its healing finally...
Spoke to the artist and when completely healthy he will do the touch ups I asked for...
2 more tats and some fills with skulls and roses and the arm is done...its great to watch how it develops...
Going to a different artist that does realism for my pinhead

Just looked her up, Holli Marie, she's gorgeous; like a punk rock Kirsten Dunst. Thighs look fine to me.

Looking at some of these professional tattoos, I can't help but feel that Sards is getting ripped off big time.

I get it. As long as you're happy and all that, but it just doesn't look like something done by a pro. Is it the old school look you're going for?

I've tried to steer away from too much realism and definitely wont do water colour...My wolf is the most real of my tats...I wanted my Pinhead to be realism but don't have enough space to do it justice...so will go back to the look you get in horror books . The illustration effect. I am going cartoon on my other arm....Vampirilla, Harley quin etc. I just love those curves and big boobs and will probably get a dead girl tat there too....
My missus is going to a new artist that specializes in reality on Thursday. Will see what his work is like...She is getting an undead girl...
