    well IMO, i didn't think an artist could free hand draw that picture onto skin, when i say that i mean with marker. the detail comes from the tattoo gun which obviously is freehanded.

    i take what vangoz says to mean that the artist drew on the outline with marker and freehanded with the gun?

    are we friends now.Alot of good tattooists can do almost anything.yes they can tattoo without no transfer at all.It goes to show how skilled these tattooist can do.The tattoo gun is their baby and able to do anything on the skin.

    Any chance of a colour pic, looks awesome so far. Is it gonna be whole back?

    Yeah i will put one up as soon as i can, the pic was taken bout an hour after it was done, so in and around the shading looked very red.

    Yeah pretty much the whole backs getting done.

    but why did you say
    there's no way a picture that detailed could be freehanded directly onto the skin
    at the beggining and now you have a freehanded tattoo,did ye not know that detailed designs can be freehanded?
    Have you pics of ye tats if you dont mind?

    Theres a still more detail to go into the face, and the sides. The backround need to be done. And a the rest of the guitar and more hair will be at my lower lower back.

    Your side piece is really sweet, bet it hurt???, i have another generic tribal in that location and it hurt like hell.

    Davey the point that she was making was that doing the Giger piece completely freehand would be next to impossible to so with any degree of accuracy as it's so intricate. As the outlines were stencilled on, it is not a freehanded piece.

    I'm not disputing a tattoo artists ability to freehand a detailled piece, but generally it comes out best when it's a piece they have come up with themselves.
