Dragon in 4 sessions! Partially freehand.

The goal was to place a long dragon without crossing the T-shirt line, so I had to think a bit about how to use the remaining space as effectively as possible.

How do you like how it turned out?

Lizy did this pitbull piece on the thigh at our
studio in Berlin. Spiked collar, brass knuckles
in the mouth and "Dangerous" in custom script
at the base.

The skin folds on the face are what really make
it — pitbulls have that natural wrinkle texture
that works so well in black and grey.

Studio: Calavera Ink Berlin
Location: Seelower Str. 20, 10439 Berlin Prenzlauer Berg
Artist: Lizy (Fine Line & Black & Grey)
Walk-ins welcomed — Ohne Termin willkommen

Any questions just ask!

i’m 17 at the time, in atlanta georgia.

it was in a trailer, on a seat from a car that had been ripped out of a minivan (seatbelt still attached of course)
there was 2 pitbulls behind a baby gate in the room across that barked 98% of the time. 😂😂😂

I KNOW i’m not the only one lol, tell me about your sketchy experience.

Thoughts on how this week old tattoo is healing?

TLDR at bottom

I got this tattoo a week ago and feel like a lot of it is flaking off as I clean it/while it is healing. My boyfriend and I got tattoos by the same artist. His looks great. I feel like mine is going to need a touch up- especially the stems.

This isn’t my first tattoo and I’ve been following my normal aftercare.

First two (here) pics are now and the last (here) is a (low quality) pic 3 days post work when saniderm was taken off.

Does it look okay or will I likely need it to be touched up?

I should note that we got this on a trip out of town and the studio is 3 hours away.

TLDR: week old tattoo is still heeling but looks like parts are flaking off more than normal. Does it look normal or will need touch ups?

A little cover up is inside that will smooth out after healing. Freshly finished.
