LMAO--I missed that the other day. I'm glad someone was brave enough to say it. :D

Come on Dave...at least admit it didn't tickle! smile.gif

btw--looks really good. Who came up with that logo anyway?

[ShadoeWolfe]

Why will no one believe me?! I said there was that tender spot...but that was it! Sheesh! smile.gif

As for the logo, a few years back I designed that myself using Poser and Photoshop... - just sort of became part of the site and me..so I made it more a part of me finally.. smile.gif

Update on the wound...almost healed...skin peeling off just fine and nice and clean underneath...ready for the wolf.....

[Exsanguinator]

Mmmmmmm, blood....

Sorry, bit distracted there - nice one!

[Ema]

Hmmmmm very nice there Mr Wolfie.... :-&gt;

Now thats another one I wouldn't mind having myself, but my skin is reserved for one of Symon's... whenever I get to it that is..lol

Too bad there really isn't a way to make the ink silver, like the one on the site here... that would be exquisite!

[ShadoeWolfe]

Didn't get the 'during' shots this time as I was alone... but I got some finished ones..

Hope you all like. Thanks again to Matt at Just 4 You Tattoo in Findlay, Ohio and thanks to Pote for the work on the Wolfe.

[Goth Girl]

that is sooooooooooooo cool!!!

[Lagula Longarm]

Nice one Shadoe, at this rate, by the time you get here for the Halloween bash you dshould have another....30ish :eek:

[ShadoeWolfe]

deano,

no chance of that! smile.gif These were the two I wanted done for now and that will be the way it stays. I just figured get them done roughly together so it's all over at once. healing and all... maybe in the future I'll elaborate on them some - but for now - this is good. I'm happy.

[Lagula Longarm]

Thats how it starts...you get one then that looks odd on it's own so you balance it out by having the other arm then you tamper with one then............... tongue.gif

[ShadoeWolfe]

The tampering has begun..... :D

My skull has been added to - so far only the outline because of the size of it. The color and shading might be done in the next sitting but it might take another two to finish it completely.

Unfortunately, my artist's schedule is such that my next sitting isn't until August 7th! Damn I hate waiting...but it will be worth it. As soon as I can get a picture of the outline I'll get it up for you to see - and Deano is right. After this one - I'll have to add to my Wolfe to balance it out. Heh heh.. :D

[ShadoeWolfe]

As promised.....

Flames will be oranges and yellows, sun will be blues and yellows, skull will get touched up, cross will be shaded grey, and the thorns on the outside will most likely be tribal black. :D Happy Wolfe.....

[Lady Louise]

Very nice Shadoe

Keep telling myself I'll get one - not too sure about the pain part yet.

But never say never
:eek: :eek:

HOLD ON! WAITTAMINUTE!

Mr. Wolfe, according to your contract with www.brianlumley.com (http://www.brianlumley.com) your skin is exclusive PROPERTY OF BRIAN LUMLEY. You've irreparabley damaged said property and violated your contract! You'll be hearing from our lawyers on this matter, Mr. Wolfe. :mad:

DAMNIT! I'M SO JEALOUS!!! ;)

[ShadoeWolfe]

After another 3.5 hours in the chair..... only another 3 or so left to go before it's done... I don't know about you all - but this thing is starting to look awesome.... :D Some blues and greens to be added still into the flames and sun, and then the tribal thorns and she will be complete!

Soon, you will no longer be Dave... you will just be "The One With No Arms Left To Tattoo On..." :D

Just Kidding! Look's awesome!!!! :eek: When will it be completely done?

[ShadoeWolfe]

I'm hoping the thing will be done in the next two weeks. I go in next week to setup an appointment and hopefully get it done then. If not then - the following week... then I can start looking at adding to the Wolfe.... heh heh

[Lagula Longarm]

i'm not trying to say "I told you so"...but...." I told you so" !!
It starts off as one tattoo, then you tinker with it, then the next thing you know your covered in them smile.gif

[Goth Girl]

Regarding the wolf tattoo... it's a lovely tattoo as it is... sometimes less is more.

[Lagula Longarm]

On the subject of tatoo's, me and Mazrah have just had some done. My one is a Grim Reaper on my left calf. I will be booking up another appointment in the near future (money permitting) and I will have the picture of a liuetenant holding a skull, from the Necroscope picture series on my other calf.
