Back to the larger realism pieces ⚔️🦁

Really enjoyed working on this one. Combining the Spartan warrior and lion gave it a strong, powerful feel from top to bottom, while keeping plenty of detail and contrast throughout the piece.

The lion's expression, armour details and overall flow were the parts I enjoyed most bringing together.

Projects like this are always a good reminder of why I love black and grey realism.

Would love to do more warrior, mythology and animal-themed pieces like this 👀

What would you add to a sleeve built around this theme?

Bit of a darker one for this piece 🎤🖤

Really enjoyed putting this together — loads of texture, contrast and detail throughout, especially in the mask and hands.
Definitely one of those tattoos that changes depending on how the light hits it.

Big fan of projects like this where you can mix realism with a darker atmosphere 👀

Would love to do more pieces in this style.

Bank holiday post ⚔️🖤

Really enjoyed working on this Lagertha piece — always loved the look and detail of the Viking portraits.
Tried to keep this one strong and atmospheric without overworking it.

Definitely the kind of projects I’d love to do more of 👀

Hope everyone’s having a good bank holiday weekend.

Something a bit different ⚔️

Worked on this Viking head piece using stipple/dotwork shading throughout — really enjoyed building this one up and letting the texture do the work.

Head tattoos aren’t for everyone, but when they’re done right they hit different.

Always up for more pieces like this 👀

What do you think of head tattoos — too much or just right?

Keeping the realism going 👀

This one was a bit different — building up John Wick with the car and the Continental in there as well.
Always enjoy pieces where you can bring multiple elements together into one design.

Tried to keep it balanced so nothing overpowers the rest, but still hits as a full piece.

More like this coming soon…

What do you think — keep it simple or go all in with details? 👇

Back to the darker side of things 🔪

Added Michael Myers to this chest to sit alongside the healed Jason piece — always love working on horror projects like this.
There’s something about these classic characters that never gets old.

Really enjoyed building up the texture and keeping it gritty rather than over-polished.

More pieces like this please 🖤

Who’s your favourite horror character? 👇

✨ Cover-Ups That Transform ✨

These are just a few before & after cover-up tattoos I’ve completed over the last few weeks. From faded florals and old script to darker, heavier pieces — every cover-up is carefully designed to work with the existing tattoo, not against it.

If laser isn’t an option (or just not something you fancy), a well-planned cover-up can be a powerful alternative. Consultation is key — we’ll talk through what you have, what you want, and what’s realistically achievable to give you the best long-term result.

📩 Get in touch to book a consultation
Message me directly via DM or drop me a message to start the process.

🖤 Old tattoos don’t have to stay regrets — they can become something you love again.

Ribs done ✔️🔥
Bold black & grey realism packed with detail — classical cherubs representing see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.
Rib tattoos aren’t for the faint-hearted, but when they’re done right… they hit different.

Designed to flow with the body, built to last, and made to be noticed.
If you’re ready for something powerful, meaningful, and unapologetically bold — let’s do it.
