Work in progress 🔥

Almost done on this full colour bio-mech cover up sleeve by Steve Potton in the High Peak.

Layering in the final details, pushing the contrast and bringing all that mechanical flow to life. This one’s been a journey — from cover up to complete transformation.

Stay tuned for the finished reveal 👊

Just finished Heather’s unusual leg tattoo 🔥

Designed and inked by Steve Potton at his studio in Glossop — this one was all about bold detail, flow, and making something completely unique to her.

Love how this piece wraps and moves with the shape of the leg 👌

What do you think of this unusual design?

After 18 months of solid graft, Chris’s full Japanese samurai and dragon backpiece is finally complete — and what a journey it’s been. Every session built towards this moment, and we’re both beyond proud of how it’s come together. The flow, the detail, the power… this one hits different.

Massive thank you for the trust and commitment throughout the process — pieces like this are a true collaboration.
