I can finally participate in this thread!
This is just the outline, first sitting was today... took about 3 hours of tattooing w/ an initial hour of stencil transfer and some free hand water.
the piece wraps around from my inner forearm and to the back of my shoulder on my arm, so the squid is actually a bit tough to see in pictures...
like i said, tough to really see the squid in the pics... here is its body
this empty space will be filled in with something... the artist took photos of the piece and is going to be messing around with some ideas
here is the back of my arm...
a close up of the mast head
