Inked (first tattoo)

Here is my latest. We are 6 hrs in and have one more 2 1/2 to 3 hrs next Friday for final shade and some color. It is also a cover up and will get blended into the skull on my forearm that will become a piston and a full sleeve. I may blend it into the one on my chest as well. After this shoulder piece is done I am getting a portrait of my grandpa on my calf.

All mine are my drawings or started out as my drawing or something that I put together and had my artist work on, no bullshit flash! The place I go doesn't even have flash on the walls they are custom work only. It's funny when people walk in, look around then ask where are all your tattoos at? When they are asked "what are you looking for" they come back with "I don't know, I wanted to see what you have" then they are told that maybe they shouldn't be getting a tattoo if you don't know what you want to get.
