Tattoo you? Tattoo me...

Okay I finally got up enough nerve to finish my Koi tattoo on myself.  It was my second tattoo ever, and I was a little timid about coloring it in.  So this afternoon, I sat down and started pushing ink.  I am really happy with the outcome.  I tried many different technique to find which shading effects worked and didn't.  This is why you practice on yourself, you can experiment.  Total time invested about 4 hours.  I used a no 5 liner and a 7mag shader.
