JSkellyy Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Hey guys! I go by JSkellyy. I've been interested in tattoos ever since I was a kid, due to my father serving in the Marine Corps. While serving he got several tattoos which I always thought looked awesome! I have a couple tattoos of my own. I have some script on my chest, and I've recently started what I plan to be a full sleeve. Here are some pictures. I know the script isn't great, but it was my first tattoo from when I had just turned 18, and I didn't look into the artist. I'm curious to hear thoughts on the start of my sleeve. It's just line work for now, but I go back in two weeks for color, and my artist and I discussed it being very colorful. Let me know what you think on it! I can't get the twitter picture to insert into and IMG tag btw, sorry guys! https://twitter.com/J_Skellyy/status/380861279755190272 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herewego Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Welcome. Do you have a link to your artist to see more of his work? Curious as to why you stopped after the line work was finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkellyy Posted February 10, 2015 Author Share Posted February 10, 2015 He doesn't have an instagram or formal site, but here's a link to his facebook where he quite often posts his work. The reason we decided to stop, was so we could have more time to brainstorm colors, and the shop was closing up too. I think it'll end up working out way better doing it in two sessions anyway. https://www.facebook.com/TKMuffin?fref=ts Here are some highlights of work though.

Kimmie Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I look forward to seeing the final product! Do you know what color scheme you might end up with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkellyy Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 We're thinking some crazy colors for the skeleton with bounce shadows from the moon. The theme for the whole sleeve is going to be the night sky with the sky being a dark blue. I want it to have a lot of contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSkellyy Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 Sorry about the filter guys. It was the only online photo I had. I'm going back for another session in 3 more weeks due to my arm swelling up so much it wasn't taking any ink after 4 hours. xcom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeSea Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Look like black and grey is really his strong suit. Almost looks like two different artists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkellyy Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 He's even said his B&G is his best stuff. You don't mean that in a bad way with mine right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
