look at this silly lil bat tat
Placed under the elbow on the forearm is a finer line tattoo of a bat. Both wings are up in flight. Sporting big ears, a funky nose, and a tongue out on his fuzzy lil body, this bat is having a great time. A closer up image of the bats face. He has a tiny little eye framed by two classically large bat ears. His mouth is open and his tongue is out! He has very tiny feets.

anotha leaf!!!
Some sort of oakish leaf tattoo. The stem and vines are bold black lines, while the rest of the leaf is just shaded with no outline. The few overlapping bits are a darker shade, creating an almost 3D effect. Located under the knee wrapping towards the calf.

Wing Charm
Illuminated by a well timed sunbeam is a tattoo of three cicada wings strung together by a ribbon. There are two large wings and one secondary wing. The tattoo is placed right underneath an older (not by me) crescent moon tattoo with figures sitting atop.

first time tattooing someone else named Quinn at my first tat convention let's go
A vampire skeleton in knight armor. A stake is pierced through the back of the head, emerging through an empty eye socket. There are pops of red in the fangs and throughout some details in the stake. Black and grey, located on the shoulder. Same description as before, though this angle shows the back of the head/stake better. The back of the stake reaches closer to the scapula. It features a sun detail with red orb gems. A close up of the vampire skeleton. The mouth is slightly ajar, and the fangs are dipped in bright red blood. The stake pokes out of the left eye socket, presumably the cause of death. A closer image of the back of the head and stake. The visor of the helm is lifted up, and curves up on the shoulder.

Achilles and Patroclus
a Grecian style ceramic with a depiction of Achilles lifting Patroclus up. Bold blacks adorn the top, bottom, and handles while the white figures are framed by a soft stippled grey. GAY!!! Patroclus clings to Achilles, mouth open in gay yearning. Achilles smiles as he holds on to his lover. Both sets of nips OUT

Spider Witch
Located on the outer thigh is a tattoo of a nude woman. She has spider legs emerging from behind her, and her long hair hides her lower legs and transforms into the webs entangled around her spider legs. A close up of the spider witch. She has very witchy fingers that are shaded black, and a cool v vampy bang going on.

some fan favorites from my last guest spot! I will definitely draw more cute field mice on various plants
A field mouse on a U shaped stalk of wheat, reaching out to grab a kernel of wheat for dinner. Black and grey illustrative style, located on the outer ankle. A field mouse chillin on a daisy flower, tail curls around the stem and leaf. Very whiskery and cute, with a pleasant smile on its face. Black and grey illustrative style, located on the outer bicep/just below the shoulder.

fresh vs healed, brought to you by an unsolicited healed pic

healed 5ish months. there's no better way to a tattoo artist's heart than an unprompted healed pic
A fresh tattoo of the moment howl holds star Calcifer in his hands, just before he eats him or something? (I don't remember exactly). Mostly stipple shading. Done on the bicep just above the elbow ditch. The tattoo of the same moment. The stipple shading has both darkened slightly and softened up.

Here's the pt 2 to the tummy tat I posted 8 months ago... the shading is 4 months healed in these pics.

A stylistic mix of shells, suns, and Junji Ito's Uzumaki! Freehanded and done in 2 sessions
A sub spiral tummy tat inspired by shells. It frames the belly button and reaches to the sternum, sides, and underwater lines. Black and grey Tiny spirals frame the belly button. The spirals get larger and larger away from the belly button, until the largest spiral shells shoot out in curves. The largest way outshoot spirals up and ends in the mid sternum area. The shorter outshoot spirals towards the waistline, perfectly pointing to a divot in the waistline roll.

tummy tat 😌

(pt 1 shading 4 next time. entirely freehanded, purposefully asymmetrical)
a person holding up their shirt to reveal a fresh tummy tat. Reminiscent of a sun, large waves reach up towards their sternum, pelvis, and sides, turning into snail-esqe shells at the center of the "sun shape". Smaller turritella shells poke out from the center as well. Lining the belly button are small spirals. Spirals of various sizes fill the center of the "sun"

my favorite is when a lone white whisker makes it look like Mij only has one whisker. she look like a dang two whisker baby
pictured fuzzy chest and up, this tortoiseshell cat is looking blankly from her spot on the right into who knows what on the left . She has one white whisker on her cheek and one on her eyebrow, amongst the hard to see black whiskers. She looks like she only has two whiskers.

here's a picture of them splooting together for reference
Two cats laying in a nearly identical position on their side. The one of the left is a chunky tortie and the one on the right is an orange and white cat (orange creamcicle, if you will). They're laying on a mustard yellow rug, clearly cooling off from laying in the sunny spot just above them.

just discovered aquatic microorganism references, this flash sheet about to go so hard
Picture of a wip on procreate. The main focus is an abstract looking aquatic microorganism with an eye centered in the design. It is somewhat cross shaped with smaller diagonals of branches. Cut off are two shells; on the left a spiral with waving spikes, on the right two striped spiraling shells.

stick: hunted
thoughts: minimal
chaos: eternal
Momiji aka Mij the Tortie is taking up most of the frame. She is sitting and looking left. There is an incredibly thin sliver of golden iris surrounding her humongous pupils—full hunting mode. Her ears and whiskers are perked forward, ready to eat the stick. Fia the orange creamcicle is pictured blurry and in motion. The corner of the green bed juts out from the bottom of the picture. Fia has one arm outstretched on the bed, paw catching a blue stick. She is turning over to the left, her head hidden behind the bed. Psycho behavior.
