Today’s session focused on adding the background, details on the arm, and the head.
All other areas are fully healed, with no touch-ups or additional color added.
Huge thanks to my client for the incredible trust and for giving me complete creative freedom throughout both the design and tattooing process!
Really appreciate the trust in my vision and artistry! 🔥

可以,走更酷、更有高级感一点:
Beyond the ordinary. 🚀
Built this astronaut piece with strong black & grey contrast, fine details, and just a touch of color to make it stand out.
Still adding more elements to complete the story — every detail has a purpose.

Cover-up freehand piece.
My client gave me complete trust and allowed me to freely create and work with my own ideas. I’m truly grateful for that trust.
Today, I only added some background color and the skull/deer head at the top. Everything else you see is fully healed, with no touch-ups or additional color added.
A good cover-up isn’t just about covering the old tattoo. It’s about using some of the existing shapes and marks, combining them with new ideas, and making the whole piece flow naturally so it doesn’t look like a cover-up at all.
