  • any tattooist worth their salt wouldn't be hugely keen on just replicating something someone brings in on a bit of paper.

    #awkward.

    I showed the ninja tune logo I wanted to the guy who I was talking to about possibly doing mine, his eyes lit up and he started reminiscing about the label and his favourite artists from bitd & we spent the whole of the session where he replicated it listening to stuff from the label.

    It's nothing fancy & not everyone's cuppa but I'm really liking it and am glad it wasn't done freehand.

  • logo is the logo though, right, if it's reinterpreted it's not the same thing surely? not the same as 'my friend is really good at drawing and they did this'

  • Same guy reinterpreted my very bad space invader draft idea into something much nicer. I think he's worth his salt, I'd checked his other work too before committing and knew I wasn't going to be overstretching him really.

    I didn't make his insta highlights which are leagues above what I wanted.

    It's a slippery slope and I have an idea for a Crosshair (Bad Batch) variant of this trooper helmet of his.

    That'd be quickly upto 5 in total if I get all 3 I'm thinking of done.
