I cant wait for it to be finished.

Have to color in the eyes.. add the water effects.. and he is going to do like a reddish fade around the kanji...

Its cool too.. he did the whole thing freehand.

It was a cover up... Ive always like Koi.. but given what we needed to cover, it made alot of sense.. he drew it up that night...

It was covering a weird gecko thing... The kanji (Heart and Soul) was there already... he just added the red around it..

I am going to do something similiar on my other arm... I have a kanji there as well (strength)... Ill have another koi wrap around it, just a different design. :)

It looks much better now that the eyes arent bleeding - ill take a new pic with no glare soon.
