Description A guy asked me to draw something up for him, haven't shown it to him, not sure I like it yet.

Anways it needed to have part of a revolver/handcannon so naturally I think colt python, but the barrel should be the tattoo grip and needle, the grip of the gun should be a snake, and then it needs the banner too...60 pounds of shit in a 1 pound box if you ask me.

He is starting his apprenticeship and many old schoolers hate the term gun, it's a dumb argument I think because it has nothing to do with the art, it's what someone is calling their tool.

I know my boss has yelled at me a few times for referring to it as a "gun".. "it's a fucking MACHINE not a GUN what are you shooting people out there!?"

yep. he's an old biker who grew up in boston.

my artist yelled at me when i told him i bought a tattoo gun.

it's fucking stupid.

anyways i think the pistol/needle combo looks great. something with the flow of the banner seems a little off-kilter, the height of it doesn't look quite consistent. but jesus christ could he cram any more into a single tattoo?

Thank you! I told him I would try but asked if he understood how much stuff that was, I still don't even understand the snake as a handle part... cause I was envisioning a cut off hand holding the gun and the banner being like a bloody knuckle bandage thing.

I might do that just for fun for me, I showed him what I had done so far and he loved it...so I'm taking my ego out of the equation... thanks for the input!
