Got another one yesterday. Three hours in the chair on the inside of the bicep. This area is a bit tender compared to the shoulder area. Aaron Harding from Pittsburgh tattoo company.
I got this idea in my head because I have always liked deep sea angler fish since I first saw them on a National Geographic animal card from when I was a kid. And it’s kind of a shoutout to my oldest son, Sebastian, whom I affectionately call SeaBass. Even though this is not even close to an actual sea bass, those would be boring as a tattoo. The mermaid that is attracted to the bioluminescence represents my wifey, a redhead. I wasn’t sure how she would feel about that-either flattered or angry because it’s about to be eaten. To make the design, I looked up some American traditional deep sea angler fish tattoos and American trad mermaids. I then ducked around d with the images by turning the mermaid into a sticker. I altered the colors to make her a redhead and the tail green, then in my notes section, I downloaded the AmTrad angler fish and added the sticker of the mermaid and adjusted the angle. Sent it to my artist, Aaron, who then redesigned the tattoo so it would be his own.
I fucking love this one. It’s more colorful, very crisp, and I earned this one the hard way. The color didn’t really hurt, it the outline in some places, felt like my arm was being cut off or someone was hammering a nail in with a sledge hammer. Anyone else have inside bicep done, and if so, how was it for you?
And as always, give me your honest thoughts.
