Its looking great now (although scabby). Most of the outlines are done. Most of the black shading is done, and a few other colours have been started. It'll change Quite a bit after the final few hours work so I'll wait till then till I take more pics. I dont wanna sell Alexis short as she is doing an amazing job.

Its not all the shields, and they aint all headtube ones, just 20 that i liked.
And yes, the Sabbath and Warpig are one of my fav's too :daumenhoch:

Alexis took the little leaf things from around the Letters in the Very first shield, blew them up and dropped them in here and there to fill in gaps and pull it all together. Nice touch, for sure

Ah yes, I didnt say. It was done by Alexis Camburn. As well as being an amazing tattooest, her boyfriend is S&M rider James Cox so she knows ALL about S&M bikes. Whats more, she pretty much tattoo's every rider who passes tho Hastings/4down. The list of people she has tattooed is amazing. She couldnt have been any more perfect for the job.
