They look awesome, congrats. Why are they called bestie tats.

Maybe the guy in the last pic hated his wife and that’s the way he perceived her.

I like that the security guard is sucking on that ladys boob in the last pic. Shouldn’t he be doing something about the people who stole that poor woman’s clothes.

You will do fine. Eat a good meal and enjoy the process. Be sure to some pics when you get a chance. Good luck.

This is the first piece I have seen from a brazilian tattooist on this site. Good to see contributors from that part of the world. I’ve seen a lot of Japanese style tattoos from Brazil and they are top notch. Welcome to the forums and invite your friends.

Becs awesome work. My favorite is the koi leg sleeve. Congrats on the little one and I look forward to seeing more work from you. What’s your new babys name, if you don’t mind me asking.

It’s all down hill now. Knuckle and face tats are next. Congrats to you and him, and awesome first piece.
