I forgot to share the updated design for my tattoo.. the "skin" color will just be my flesh tone.. I added it in the picture because the background is way to white and I needed to see how it might turn out on my skin.

The honeydew got honey done... These are my first 3 attempts. The letters show potential with some good saturated color... My first attempt at the biker girl I lost the stencil on the face and (not thinking) I used the 9RL to shade... Big rookie mistake.. not satisfied I made another attempt... This time shortening my lines... And using a mag for shading... This time my line work suffered I needed to relay stencil... But the shading was way better.. I WILL SAY... It was the best tasting tattoo project.. I was told I show potential. I will say I'm proud of what I've done but I'm not satisfied and definitely have room to improve.

Here's an update on the first post. All me all r handed with very little references.. not complete... I will eventually complete this.. more of a time filler when I'm bored.

The part I was challenged with was the pedals and main body of the rose.. the stem and leaves I added just because. There is room to improve.

Yesterday's project and some notes for my apprenticeship. I'm learning how to better my drawing with my mentors and make sure we are all comfortable before touching real skin. These will be redrawn in 1 year to see how I'm progressing
