Re: Help!!! Snake tattoo gone wrong

Well I made it- we went over time and he said we'll need another session of about an hour. He wants to go back over a few of the cover spots to give an extra layer of cover, but it's so amazing!!! It's huge now, but I'm in love. Shane really is taking his time and was very patient when I started having trouble about 3 hours in. We took a break, started a new area and I got a second wind. I'm so proud of my new ink and of myself for making it through!!

Placing the stencil:


After:


My next appointment is August 23. I can't wait to finish up the details; I'm soo ecstatic and pleased with how this is coming out!!!

That is freakin awesome! And it doesn't look too big/overpowering at all. Good job!

Re: Help!!! Snake tattoo gone wrong

I'm so excited- Saturday I go back for the final session on my tattoo! I can't wait to see Shane again and get the piece finished. As it has healed, the top lines of the underlying brain became visible again. Shane had said more detail and shading in the viper's body should cover that, and I completely trust him. He's worked wonders so far; I can't wait to see how it looks when it's all 100% completely finished!!!

Re: Help!!! Snake tattoo gone wrong

I got the finishing touches done on Saturday- it looks incredible. We had to darken the viper a bit so that her body could cover the edges of the brain, and right now it's still healing, so there are brighter fresh lines and duller old lines and I still have a bit of plasma/ink coming out. I will post some pictures as soon as it heals enough to give a good representation.

I could not be happier- Shane is amazing and absolutely the nicest artist to work with! If I ever want more art, I'll be going straight to him without a moment's hesitation!!

Re: Help!!! Snake tattoo gone wrong

I got my fiancé to take a few pictures last night, but they all came out blurry and crappy. Once it peels the new lines will blend with the underlying color and it will be easier to get a good shot of it.
