oh my! this tattoo is amazing! im getting an emperor scorp tattooed on my leg soon... maybe you could send the guy/girl that did yours out to me? im cheap so im sticking with flat rate shipping. how much is shipping on a human being? will it die before it gets to me?
My guess is that he weighs over the 70lbs limit so you may need to think about UPS. They are slow however so I can't give a LAG clause to it. Sorry. There is addition packing fees as well because they tend to eat a lot, especially when bored during shipping. There is also a waste disposal fee, biohazard containers will be supplied. I think that's everything. All you need to do is convince him to pack his gear. Good luck with that. :p

Had some of the desert worked on a few days ago, it's still a little blood-fresh in the initial photo but the sand is yellow with a twinge of red anyway so it's not too far off from how it looks after healing a little. I have 3-5 more sittings, like 4. At the end of the month I'll be getting the sky finished and some of the bricks (or spot under honey comb) done. Afterwards it will be the sidewalk, finishing bricks and onto the bees. Likely I'll have one last sitting afterwards to add in the hairs on the scorpion, spines on the roach, and needles on the cactus. Woot.

This is the most incredible tattoo! If I ever finish my tattoo design, I want to find your tattoo artist as well to get it done.

You know...I almost feel like all the background stuff is starting to take away from the three main inverts.

I mean, the work is phenomenal, but I just think it's starting to be too much.

Just me?

Nah, the undershadowing helps define the inverts and as long as your artist keeps an eye on color contrast I think it'll turn out great. I see what you're sayin', though. I've seen a few in mid process and thought,"Are you sure that's what you want to do?" It's just so hard to say how a large piece like this will turn out until completed. Vfox, I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the bees in the honeycombs.

It is slightly busy but once the blue sky and grey sidewalk is added I think it will give a nice inverted mirror balance to it.

As for the tiny bees I'm going to have them realistic but not as crisp as the main bee. Hopefully it all works out in the end, personally though I'm so pleased with how it looks.

The artist is Kyle Blackledge from Wandering Canvas in Dallastown, York, PA. You can find him online or Facebook under the tattoo shops name.

My next sitting is on April 10th, we had some scheduling conflicts so I've not been able to get anything worked on for a few weeks. Soon though. :)

My last sitting from the 10th. I have to get the left done soon, I'm a little unbalanced, haha.

COOL!!! I like the transformation processes of how the tattoos look over time.
