pretty much finished the majority of my halfsleeve/chest plate, got about 1.5 hours left, done just over 20 so far. Booked in to start my right arm/chest with another japanese design i’ve cooked up so ill get pics up when i start that 🙂 Apologies for the shithouse camera phone pics.

Welcome to the forum!

I love japanese style. It looks great.

Can you post some healed pics when you can? I would like to see how that blue, pink, and orange turn out.

Did you design this yourself?

thanks mate

yeah normally japanese designs finish in distinct chest ‘plates’ im actually going to continue it across in a more new school japanese chest piece and continue down and do another halfsleeve on my right arm… Dragon/cherry blossoms/samurai skull and helmet should look quite cool

yeah, i like the japanese style as well. I have working on a cobo for some time now. I think that is what it is called..thighs, ribs, half sleeves..

Anyway, yours looks cool – like shorty mentioned when it is all healed it would be nice to see if you could post a nice clear pic…

Yeah the tattoo is fully healed in those photos… I have another couple of hours booked in for monday, just to finish off little bits and pieces so once those are done ill get the old man to take some decent photos for me.

cheers all
