This series was selected for the Society of Illustrators annual show. This was supposed to be a 1 hr practice exercise but I liked how it was going so went on to spend like 7 hrs on it oops. Some of the tattoos are: Daruma, Gachapin, Newfoundland dog, the truth is out there in latin, alien abduction, Enryo (Japanese concept with no real translation). Based on a Georges Dambier’s photo.
