Started this on my friend today. Bloodlined it and scratched in some shadows. Used my Neotat, Blitz, and a coil liner (because my coworker was testing out my blunderbuss). Looking forward to it coming together.

Yes. The 25mag was a curved mag from GoodGuy supply. They make nice needles.

Final installment of the elephant tattoo. I'll miss my friend. He won't be back to Canada for at least a year. He wants to be 'that guy' walkig around shirtless at as many conventions as will let him. He rocks.

I like the blitz for solid fields of color. It's a long stroke, so it does a different feel of black and grey than a shorter stroke machine. It runs best around 6 ish volts, and is on the slow side, so you won't be racing along with it like a rotaryworks. It's a nice machine. I have both aluminum and brass version. :)
