This tiger sleeve for Ben, who has been travelling up from Tauranga, is one of my favourite tattoos of the year so far.
It took a total of 5 sessions each between 5.5-6 hours so I think a total of around 29 hours.
Ben came in pretty much every two weeks. Started in Feb, Finished in May.
The first session is drawing the design on the arm, and lining it up,
The second and third session are both mostly taken up doing the black and grey shading.
Session 4 and five is when everything comes to life with colour.
