My first tattoo on someone else :) Background shading coming soon.. May add some more shading into the actual skull but I want to to look 3D when the background is in (it's gonna be real dark) so might leave it lightly shaded.

This is a chinese water deer skull.. yes people the deer has sabre teeth!! How amazing is that??

WOW That's awesome as hell. I thought it was a sabre toothed cat at first.. It seems like a lot of people have cat skulls and other strange skulls tattooed to them.

I guess I wasn't the first person to think of that.

Are you bitten by the bug now?

Keep up the good work

Thanks man! Yeah officially bitten.. colour inks arriving next week.. should have a few more pieces to put up soon.. It's been a long road but I'm finally getting somewhere!

Any advice for nervous shakes?? I couldn't calm myself down!! Maybe that's just a first time thing? T

haha, the shakes will calm down :)

the weight of the machine will probably feel a bit different when you work on skin as well but you'll soon get the hang of that. Just make sure to use inks and needles that is up to quality, and of course machines and you will do fine. When it comes to supplies in this trade you get what you pay for and there is a massive difference between good and not so good stuff.

Good Luck!
