Hey everyone so I'm in the process of getting a tattoo started here. Had my first session a couple weeks ago then I have my next on the 18th of this month.
Kind of having trouble thinking of some parts to fill this guy in with.
The plan right now is to do the full sleeve basically up to the wrist. I know that's what I want (about 3 years of thinking of things) and so that's what I'm going to have done!
The "theme" is kind of mechanical/car parts (not just car stuff) because to put it simply mechanical devices and cars/motorcycles are a big part of my life. We'll just keep it at that.
We started with coilovers, a brake rotor/caliper, piston set and gears etc. Not going for super accurate as I don't believe that would be very exciting.
The forearm is going to have a lot of gears and tubes, wires some suspension links etc going on but we haven't quite figured out any great ideas of the back of my forearm and the underside of my arm.
Looking for some ideas for bigger "front pieces" to basically become more of the foreground of the piece
some current ideas include: transmission gearing, conical bearing, chain, lightbulb, drill/drill bit
If anyone has any helpful comments I would really appreciate it! feel free to throw out suggestions/photos etc.
Here's a couple pictures of the very start, just under 4 hours of work. It will all get filled in eventually looks kind of odd at the moment but that's how it goes.
Thanks!
