Been dishing out some pretty pain, lookie!

[Pseudosapien]

As some of ye may know, i have been in training to become a tattooist since the start of May. It has been maddeningly quick and time consuming(more like mercilessly devouring), but i still feel that it is well worth it.
Figured i would start sharing some of the stuff i have done, though i am crap at taking photos and even worse at getting around to transferring them to my comnputer. I shall force KAOz to help me take pics of the tatts i have done on myself and the one i have done on him later and upload them too.


The top three are the ones i have done for pay as i am aparrently good enough to start charging now, and lawdy was it nerve wracking to think of while doing them as i am shite at not being overly critical of myself.
The hooded figure pic came out too shiny, but the guy is a regular at the studio so i shall be nabbing a good pic when i next see him. I shat bricks when i was told i would be doing that design as it was the first time i had truly worked with grey shading.
And yeah, the two small ones are the first two i ever did.^^ (the pair of flowers was already lined, so i just put in the colours....still, i felt all smug afterwards seeing as i didn't tear her skin apart or fudge it up in any way like that.XD)

More to come..

Enjoy.

Looking sweet, Pseudo, I like the one in the middle, next to the rose.

I´ve always thought of getting one myself but I just can´t think of which image it would be (there are SO MANY....)

I like the rosettes- Both as a design choice and in execution

@sunset- Well, i dare say you should design your own. You clearly have some uber creative artsy skillz going, so why not make something uniquely you.

@alx- Thanks! That one actually reminded me of the monty python intro when i was finished with it.
... though looking now they are nothing like 'em..bah.

Anyhoo, here are some bits i have done since those (and a more recent non-shiny pic of the shadowy figure in the last set).


The reaper was what i did today, it took four hours and a lot o' fine lining but it was actually really fun to do as the guy has basically told me to do whatever teh fook i wanted with it. XP
The dreamcatcher and the feather/shield coverup were for a couple and damn they were cursed or something, three times when they came for their bookings something went horribly wrong with my equipment. Embarassing shizzle, but they were good sports about it and seemed pretty pleased with the results, so huzzah!
The "MOM"/heart was so small that i actually got strainy eyeballz doing it. <_> Not very impressed with it myself tbh.

More to come, possibly after some spine surgery.

Duuuuude, I had no idea you were all about the tatts now! Awesome work, the dreamcatcher in particular is gorgeous. Yay for you
