Here's the last of the photos I had edited on my days off.  I was going to post them one a day... but I have a few drawings to do before heading back out to Chicago next week.... so I'll just post 'em all now-

Naissa's sweet peas

Neal's Mask (fresh colour)

Today's tattoo photos were far to shinny to post.  Not entirely a bad thing, because it gave me a chance to edit the photos I took a few days ago of Carmen's back.  We'll probably hit the cover up one more time, but all in all,  I'd say we're pretty much done.

It's not often I finish not only one big tattoo, but TWO in one day.  Still have to do touch ups and go over cover ups one more time, but I filled all the empty spaces on Carmen's salmon backpiece, and Brian's kirin/foo dog sleeve.  Unfortunately, Brian's arm was super shinny by the end of our session, so I didn't attempt photos.   But I did get photos of the last splash on Carmen's back.

Here's what went down at ye olde studio today-

First appointment was working on Carmen's Coho Salmon backpiece.  We coloured the fins and tail today which finishes off the fish for the most part.  We'll need to do a few touch ups and go over the cover up one more time to call the fish 100% complete.  One more session of water, one or two for touch ups and we'll be done.   Pretty awesome.

Second appointment was tattooing my friend Jon.  He wanted a spiderweb for background behind his elbow.  It's obviously a fresh photo so it should soften up a bit once healed.  I didn't use any black, it's all done in gray washes.
