constantcreature Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Congratulations @Anxioussoup!!! It looks fantastic! You are giving me strength to persevere through those rough lower back sessions. I second back dimples being awful. But I will also say that getting my thighs tattooed was much easier than almost every part of my back so far.

suburbanxcore Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 The lower back was definitely worse than I expected! I actually said out loud that everyone owes 90s "tramp stamp" owners an apology. Gingerninja, warrug25 and Dan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The piece is covering up a somewhat ill-advised first tattoo that I got after surviving a very tough year at age 18, and I'm pushing 40 now, so it seemed like a good moment to move onwards and upwards. I'm so in love with how it's coming out. Everyone is right about some of these spots being no joke though — 3-4 hours feels like PLENTY for one day. My next session is this week to add some more creatures in some of the spaces along the sides and hopefully start some shading. Should be "fun"! What a rad outline here ! I really like the floral composition with the animals scattered here and there. I can't wait to see the progression on your full back. You all make me want to start a back piece more and more... I will contact Joel Soos (Stockholm), he is doing amazing pieces constantcreature 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know the artist (well, that's no surpise given how much of a neophyte I am in the tattoo world), but I searched for some of her work online and I have to say I'm absolutely intrigued... have you already thought about the kind of design you'll ask her, or will you let her go with the flow of her own inspiration?

Peedib89 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Started this guy today. Have some more color to do and then the background.

constantcreature Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Here's an update at around 20 hours. The outline took 3 sessions to finish, around 10 hours (so. many. lines.). But we've been making steady progress with relatively short appointments every 2-3 weeks, and the cover up is almost done. I'm loving the wildflower color palette and all the little creatures peeking out here and there. oboogie, Queen Rocks, cibo and 7 others 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tertia Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Hey all - it's been a long time! Between having a baby and surprise global pandemic, I took a 3 year tattoo hiatus. You can imagine I was very excited to put an end to that extended break this past weekend with this piece by Steve Flores at Spiral Tattoo in Ann Arbor, MI. Knee ditch butterfly: I was really nervous about how I was going to heal this spot with a toddler running around. I haven't bent my leg more than 45 degrees in 5 days, so we'll see how it turns out. 😛 suburbanxcore, pidjones, cibo and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
