Did a wee bit more to finish this tattoo... The cherry blossom branch is a cover up of an old feather tattoo.
New work – cherry blossom and swallow tattoo
Work in progress – sketch of Raijin!
This sketch is for an underarm gap filler. Raijin! Thunder God! He uses the drums in the background to make thunder..!
Work in progress – Koi dragon tattoo
'Koi no taki_nobori' meaning koi climbing rapids... Carp swim upstream to become a dragon.. They have succeeded in climbing the river rapids.
