Wrapped up this back piece on @peteryersin in just under 5 months, including two solid days and a total of 11 hours at @tattooexpouk, where we took home runner-up for ‘Best Large Colour (Fresh)’. Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by to check it out! Met some great artists and had a blast. This is just the beginning of Peter’s body suit, his very first tattoo, and he absolutely crushed it.
