Don’t mess with the Jesus

Don’t mess with the Jesus. Session one- first tattoo. @warhorseink_tattoo Ravenna fkn, Ohio NERD TALK: I used a 5rl- 7rs and 9mag I’m not a fan tattooing portraits this small but I used magnifying glass for most of the tattoo. It helped to see the tattoo larger of course. My eyes need a little help occasionally. Glad I found a solution. 👌 The part that was really fun was just slowing pace down and tattooing mainly with a 5 rl was like tattooing with a pencil where I could sculpt and sketch in the shapes. INK- Dynamic is my tried and true. I use a drop system Full cap 7drops 3 drops Cheers!🍻 @dynamiccolor #jesus #jesustattoo #firsttattoo #jesusonthecross
