@damselfly59 This was for my 50th spiral around the sun. It is Janus, young looking forward, old looking back
@jasod @damselfly59 That's an amazing tattoo!
@NiveusLepus @damselfly59 Thank you! I have an amazing tattoo artist. Taking it from my sketches to skin was no small thing.
Back in the long long ago, when I was doing webcomics I sat down with my artist, who did a lot of prototype sketches in her style just so I could point the tattooist in the right direction.
It's amazing watching it evolve from concept, to refined idea, to finished piece.
@NiveusLepus @damselfly59 the complexity of it blew my mind. Just forming it to my leg was a session. Then tweaking colors for ink spread etc. I have a ton of respect for ink as an art form.
