Infeno/hell based B&G arm sleeve tattoo

Infeno/hell based B&G arm sleeve tattoo

this was sort of a person al project, because i take such sadisfaction in evil, and displaying torment and chaos.
starting from the top:
hells gates open to the masses, a single entity comes forth, falling down are bodys with "flame" like movement on them, Cerberus mid arm, impaleing people on the horns of satan, displayed more baphomet style (tho i think it could have been more true.. cliet requests)
the right hand up, and the left hand down, followers of satan take the left handed path.
 a random demon devouring a human being, probably forever chewing him, river Styx in the armpit area with the faerie "man"  and, lucifer depliction himself at the bottom, where its cold, thus the snowflakes, because snowflakes i find viosually pleaseing, on, and baphomet has 3 heads...
because in dantes inferno, satan had 3 heads, each of wich forever tormenting the greatest sinners of god with the pleasure of being chewn alive for enternity...
man Christians can be brutal sometimes :P

loved the story when i was a kid about the inferno, was fun to remix it into plresent day art, tho there was alot more i wish i could have represented, this is on a girls arm whos 5'1 on a good day...
so, space was severly limited, being black and grey i felt comfortable cramming this much in a tattoo, i would never do this with a color sleeve...

time to go draw till 2am, and be at work by 11:40pm...

Skull motorcycle day of dead girl city's dirt bike biomech and sunset with roses sleeve tattoo

Skull motorcycle day of dead girl city's biomech and sunset with roses sleeve tattoo
NOW THATS ALOT OF SHIT IN A SLEEVE! lol...
the sense of accomplishment when you finish an entire sleeve is amazing, i got to know this dude, and watched his entire relationship evolve from first dating, serious dating, and a child, grown and birthed, through the whole development of this sleeve, and all i had to do is show up to work..
the bondy between a seriouse collector and a tattooer is pretty awesome, you really get to know someone when you see them for like 1-2 years straight, this guy was a champ thropugh the whole process, and is already starting to think about the next one! :D
now i have to top myself, im thinking of less criteria, and more, bigger open images, so i can #8 33 mag the shit out of it, maybe take a japaneese/ jeff gouge approtch and mix black and grey and color
reguardless, stoked.

this was right before the final session, or follow up, where i tighten up a bunch of stuff, mainly worked his forearm, theres a coverup in the girls hair, and i re-packed a bunch of black, considering she was the first place i started (because of the coverup) you can see my test run of layering in the shadow of her eye, and a little part of her hair.. to see if his arm could take anymore black, and sure enough, it did!

hats off to you jeremy.
