I’ve been working on adding more ink to the old bod. Well, actually, I’ve been working on a half sleeve on my upper right arm. I posted the black-out-lining a few months ago. Several weeks ago, I had that colored in.

Next was the “grime reaper”. Dave, my artist, really doesn’t like reapers in the traditional sense, so he decided to work up a skull with a cape thing and he wanted to hide it under my arm looking up/out depending on your perspective.

Now, that leaves a large gap of skin between his face and the pumpkin/skull art on the side and back of my arm. The plan there is to put in a grave-yard or head stones with smoke etc… We’ll see what Dave comes up with. When we started, I decided to let him “Run-with-it”.

Hope it doesn’t freak you out that a 43 year old is putting ink on his body. Well, frankly, I don’t care. It’s my skin and I’ll have to deal with it as I get older. Besides, when I’m 80, no one will care.

Stumble it!
