Friend of the family has one that looks like it crawled over his shoulder, one wing on the should the other on the back, tail curled up and wrapped around his arm to about his elbow.

Artist really made it come alive.

I've been wanting a bit of ink since I was a kid. Can't bring myself to pay for it

Right on! I dig the Oriental style a lot it has a lot of tradition and history there. Its not just a random tattoo. there is lots of stuff you can add and mix and play with when it comes to custom tattooing. finding things you like and then using that as a reference for a custom tattoo is always the best thing. Custom work is always best. Then no one else will have it, Its specifically drawn for you and what you like. Putting your personality and your ideas and your heart into a tattoo will make the tattoo more meaningful, more bold, more impact full, and all around a better piece

You can't do it directly on the side of your head, you need to have an intake manifold too. And make sure the seals are right the first time since you don't want to have to take it off to fix a leak.

Nice work!

Do we have a thread for member's tattoo work or tattoos they have gotten?
