Paul Nycz has been doing some gnarly, abstract "bio" tattoos, and I wanted to do one as a leg piece. My first tattoo from Paul!

14 hours of pain.

  • Lined bones n stuff
  • Lined calf
  • Lined calf
  • Perfect fit and placement
  • Round 2 on this leg piece.
  • I don’t realize these were going to be eyes, but it seemed fitting that they were crying blood.
  • Shading after round 2
  • Shading after round 2
  • Round 3. Drippy.
  • Tuesday hangs with Paul
  • Skull shading halfway done
  • Made a lot of progress today
  • Whew. There’s about 3 levels of healing goin here but we just wrapped this gnarly thing up.
  • I think part of my tattoo got an infection. First time this has happened.
