Phase one is complete. The next sitting is in mid-Feb and will consist of the Red Skull and Bucky Cap. Winter Soldier will most likely be on the back of the arm. Thoughts?
Sat there from noon til 8pm today.... No clue how long the next one will take but I doubt it will be as long as this one. At $150/hr I don't know that I'll have any money left over to participate in the Vault after all. Especially since TrueFaith has bids on the only pieces I wanted lol!

Serves ya right!
Sleeve is looking good! Great Cap reference art to use. Can't wait to see how it all comes together!
Thanks guys! Been waiting a long time to get this done so I'm really excited. Josh did an amazing job on it!

Haha it does look like I was chewing on the shield a lil. I have a lot of stretch marks on my arms because I used to be 260 and now I'm 180. It looks "normal" now that the swelling is going down.

Any time! I'm in C-Hill constantly and Marlton is right down the road. I'm out of the states for a couple weeks starting Feb 1 and as soon as I get back, Josh is adding in Red Skull and Bucky!
Very impressive, I would love to be that brave, I have a small "MANCHESTER UNITED" tattoo on my arm and that was painful enough. Looking forward to seeing it completed.
Looks fantastic w/ vibrant color and great detail shading really
replicates the "painting" style Ross does
Are you going full sleeve?
Are you going to keep it all Alex Ross style art to keep it a consistant tone?
Stoked to see "WIP" pics
Can not wait to see what the full project looks like when finally peeled and healed.
It's going to stay a half sleeve until I figure out what, if anything, I want on my forearm. I'd like to keep it all Alex Ross BUT I don't particularly like his Red Skull... he's got that big awkward brow. I have time to figure it out with my artist while this heals up though so I'm not too worried.
I have had an idea since I was back in the service, but never really panned out, one because I ran out of room for it and two it never gelled w/ my other tats, but maybe it might fit perfectly w/ your Capt America motif...
Tattered and been through hell but still strong enough to stand for something just.
maybe from the wrist up fading into the Cap stuff
Damn James! Cool as hell! I thought I was a big Cap fan, but you're a completist fanatic! Lol! I was actually thinking of tatting up the shield on one of my shoulder cap areas.
