Feathers on skin

As I told you some entries ago, a new tattoo is coming soon. One more clue, that’s a bird (”reaaaally… ?” I hear you say )

And today is my first meet with the tattoo artist who’s going to do it !

He asked me to bring some pictures for inspiration about the lines, colors and shading. I looked at bird tattoos all day long yesterday and I HAVE to show you these gems I found on Flickr :

and this last one is my favorite… because the idea of covering a dolphin with a bird is full of win !

(I hate dolphins… I just do. And have no better reason than the Simpson episod where an army of dolphins wants to take over the world… dolphins are evil !)

I’m excited because I know mine will be as gorgeous as these ones, hee hee^^
