I had this done last summer by Chris Dingwell at Sactuary Tattoo in Portland, Maine. In this photo it actually isn't done but I haven't taken any since. I had some additional shading done. In all it took around 5 hours.

This is my most recent addition. This was also, of course, done by Mr.Dingwell, the most talented tattoo artist in the US. It took around 6 hours. In this photos it's not totally done. I had more shading done and a few little things added. It's the first step in a full sleeve. There will be more photos of this up soon, but for now this is what I have...

the first photo is my bicep area, the second photo is my shoulder/back/upper arm area.

I also have a very poorly done tattoo on my lower back that says, "this flesh will not consume me". Which is 1)hella hardcore, and 2)from a shai hulud song. I got it done shortly after my 18th birthday by Jerry at Wicked Lines in California, Maryland. He put the needle in too deep and the tattoo is raised (scarred) and can never be covered. Luckily, I can't see it so I really don't give a fuck. It took about one hour.
