Description As you can see, my son has had a little more work done on the Celtic Cross. I love the inking and really appreciate the tattoo artist who cleaned up my lines and spacing.

I'd love to have him get this colored in, but we may be waiting for some time before that happens.

Thank you! I really like the piece myself but am especially excited to see what the tattoo guy has been doing with the drawing itself

It's very pretty isn't it? I can't wait for the color! I love how the tattoo artists take my drawings and add their style to it, makes it that much more impressive!

If I can get =justalittleknotty to re-submit the shot of her son's sparrow tat, you can see how well that one turned out. The tattoo artist kept mostly to the main colors but still cleaned it up enough to make it super pretty

Isn't it? It is much larger in person too, I should have measured it to put that info with the pictures!

Yes, you should! I have to get my owl, cat, and dragon updated at some point. I got them over ten years ago, and they're grey when they ought to be black.

i still love this one so much
and i can imagine, it would be a long sit to colour this in, maybe he has to come twice just to stand the pain....
your design is realy beautiful

thank you! He had the outline done first, then he went for the black inking and next is the color. I don't know if he will get the color all in at the same time or one color at a time. I suppose we shall see

That looks wonderful.
Hmm I wonder if that could be done in blackwork. Do you mind if I try?
