Just did this w my Cheyenne spirit. Let me know what u think. I have only been out of my apprenticeship for 8 months so constructive criticism is ok

Wow no comments. I was hoping for some suggestions

how big is the tattoo? It looks fairly small in the photo. My main concern would be how it ages if it is small. Other than that if I am being picky I would comment that the black outlines in the eye are a little too heavy. Around the bottom of the eye especially there is not as many lashes, so black wouldn't be as appropriate. They white of the eye itself is usually never really white. more of a bluish gray with maybe a few white highlights to make it look wet.

^^^ what he said except redd's eyes would be bloodshot a bit. It's really nice but yeah worried that it's too small to hold up over time. Besides that it really solid and smooth!

Size wise is about 7 by 5 inches. And i agree completely with the black eye lines. That is exactly how it was in the photo so i stayed w it. Thank you for the suggestions. It was my first portrait from photo

Well that's a decent size, should hold up nicely. Very cool!

ya, I thought it was smaller...5x7 not bad. Try to have them come back in a year or so or friend em on Facebook so you can keep up to date with how it ages.
