Okay, I just added pics to my album. My grandfather had the same birds on his chest and then he had one on his outer forearm with a banner of all his grand children’s name. He told me the bird was for protection and how sailors used to get them to ensure they had safe trips. The names are my two boy’s.

Wardy-yeah he told me it would be for free if it does need touched up.

Sorry, for some reason that particular picture won’t load and the only other ones I have are out of focus.

Sure. This was the day after it was done. I haven’t taken any newer pics because it’s at the peeling stage so it looks more like a kids finger painting. It starts about 2 inches above my wrist and ends an inch below my elbow. Now I’m just trying to decide if I want add on to it for my sleeve or move to my other arm.
