#9 Ingrid Pitt from “The vampire lovers” and Christopher lees “Dracula” tattoo.

Hello everyone, sharing with you all another fun project I finished up. On top we have Ingrid Pitt from The vampire lovers movie. At the bottom Christopher Lee as Dracula. Horror movies are one of my favorite movie genres so working on this project was exciting. In the video Ingrid Pitt is healed and Dracula is fresh. We did two sessions on this project, around 10 hours to complete.

I really enjoyed the color scheme we went for the tattoo. Some muted warm tones for Ingrid and going with some hot pinks for Dracula that’s being contrasted with the green hues in the background.

I’m always open for horror themed projects. I hope you guys enjoyed. If anyone has any questions about the process or have ideas on what you guys would like me to talk about on the blog just leave a comment on the post. I’m always looking for ways to improve . Have an awesome day everyone.

# 5 spaceman cover up

Hello everyone. Got to finish up an awesome cover up project. This one is special because I got to tattoo an English teacher and baseball coach from back in my high school days. An awesome person who gave me an opportunity to paint my high schools baseball locker room back when I was in 11th grade and now gave me the opportunity to do this tattoo on him. It was an awesome time working on this project bringing back lots of nostalgic memories. I believe teachers are underrated, under appreciated and underpaid. I’ve been fortunate enough to have had great teachers who have helped me out in life and have had a big impact in my life, carrying lessons and morals that still help me out till this day. With all that being said I just want to give a big shout out to all those amazing teachers out there looking out for their students, going above and beyond to help their students excel. Thank you.

Old tattoo
First session
