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.

sweet colors

Standing on the water, casting your bread
While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing
Distant ships sailing into the mist
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing

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.
