Well, here it is. Tonight I had my first session with Roman Costa from Timeless Tattoo in Kansas City. I had been planning a sleeve, but I think I like this piece as it is. I have a few weeks to get used to the outline and make some decisions. I really like it, and I hope you do too.

I was so satisfied with working with Roman. I agree that some of the lines are “wonky”, but now that I’ve experienced this with him, I wouldn’t have it any other way. The experience was amazing, and I’m proud to carry one of his pieces. I’m going back three weeks from tonight for shading, then later adding color.

Yeah dont worry about some of the wonky lines. Even the best of the best do it. Whats important is the main outlines are solid. Those “wonky” lines can easily be fixed with shading and/or color. Is this piece going to be b/g or color?

no doubt this piece will really jump in color, good spacing and fairly solid linework, I think its going to look great

Great tattoo. I would say go with a sleeve and tie in your forearm/inner bicep. It will be killer.

My tattooer and I have several awesome ideas to expland this to a sleeve, but I think that will be down the road. I like this piece alone as it is (well, when the shading and color are complete). It’s definitely a possibility, though.

It does look very nice! Turning it into a sleeve at some stage would be fantastic. Congrats. Look forward to seeing a pic of this stage finished.

Looking over this for the past 48 hours now, I can see one small spot of “blow out”, up near my neck at end of wing (not visible on pic). Can this be taken care of in shading/coloring? Other than that, my multiple inspections yield some pretty clean lines. I’m delighted.

For the most part super solid linework the bears hand is a little wonky but for the rest awesome.
