You HAVE to see this re work! Original piece was NOT done by me, and was an attempted cover up.
When my client Char come to me and asked what i could do to fix this existing piece she had on her arm from another artist, done years ago, I knew it was a challenge but wanted to help!
With her wedding coming up in October, she wanted it sorted so it wasn't in her pictures!
So we re worked it! Pictures are posted in the stages-
Picture 2 - the original tattoo
Picture 3-outlined and reshaped with a sharpie
Picture 4- lined in a 14 round shader and inner skin details added with a 3 round liner.
Picture 5- done! Coloured over using similar shades of the original blue and purple to hide what was attempted to be covered ip by the original crocodile tattoo.
We now have plans to make the whole sleeve river monsters themed! We're going to give this croc a foot in the front and some more water Lillie's/lotus so it doesn't look like it's floating! And to turn the pink splotches, or 'rash' as char calls it, into water drops😂
Watch this space for the development!
Thanks Char for sitting amazingly as always!
