A Seattle-based tattoo artist has shared the completion of an intricate black-and-gray piece after two years of work, including a recent five-session push to finalize the red background and highlights. The project, featuring detailed shading and bold accents, marks a significant milestone before the artist moves on to adding dark lettering on the upper shoulder and wrist. Fans of custom tattoo art and long-term ink projects are invited to weigh in on the design’s execution and share their own thoughts. The full reveal, along with the artist’s Instagram handle, is available for those eager to see the finished work.
Crazy project! All the black & gray work here is ~2 years healed. We had a long break before we finally got to finish the background. Red background + red & white highlights are fresh. 5 sessions and ~25 hours total! Now planning to finish the upper shoulder and wrist with dark lettering. Your thoughts on the project?
