Hey Guys & Gals

Thought I'd share this all with you.

I'm getting a Commander Shepard tattoo done on my back, there's lots of reasons behind getting this tat but i'm not gonna bore you with them, i'm just gonna show you the story so far and update after any new sessions.

Hope you like it, if not then feel free to me how stupid I am coz that would be original

All pictures were taken straight after cleaning it for the first time.

All credit must go to Tommy Gunn at Belfast City Skinworks

Here goes:

So this was my back before we started.




This was after the first sitting.




After the second sitting, few extra pics aswell.








After the third sitting.








This was after the most recent sitting.






5th & 6th sittings - Little new bit of background added and more colour / detail to the upper background





This is the finished article

The artwork's very impressive. Looks helluva lot better then what you had on there originally.

[TheKimora]

Cheers eternal, getting rid of those was defintley one of the reasons behind this tat.

That is beautiful work. I saw someone with an N7 tattoo recently at Gen Con, but no more than that. My tats are all non-game related. The purple and blue on the left of the tat are so vivid.

Impressive! I am not into tattoos but I cant deny that looks really great! Too bad the old ones still shine through somewhat, atleast in the picture but it matters not, improvement was tremendous!

[ZombieGambit]

It turned out really well. You had a good artist.

[TheKimora]

Thanks for the nice comments peeps, I'll pass your kind words onto the artist when I go back next week for what will probably be the final sitting.

[Bourne Endeavor]

I'll be honest, mate. When I first saw this I went for a facepalm thinking it would turn out poorly. Surprisingly enough after the outline pic it really took shape, which I was not expecting. So in the words of Garrus, I give an "IMPRESSIVE"

[Reever]

Looks spectacular, hope your back doing´s better!

[electricfish]

I'm impressed. I was a little iffy about how it would turn out when I saw the outline, but after many hours of calibrations, that's a rocking Sheploo you've got there.
Now the big question is: paragon, paragade, or renegade? :B

[electricfish]

Double post fail.

Thanks BlueDemonX, the back is doing a little better.

@ Zorr Crew - The answer is Paragon

[TheKimora]

It took 24 hours over 10 months and cost a total of £1780 but its finally finished and I couldnt be happier

[DCopeland]

I wonder how long it will take for you to regret it.

[Heather Cline]

Very nice artwork, but I'm wondering the same thing as DCopeland is.

[TheKimora]

I have 28 tattoo's and I regret none of them. This tattoo is my pride and joy, if I was only allowed to have one then it would be this. I've had 6 major operations on my spine in the last 5 years so the ammount of time I have spent lying down recovering is ALOT and almost all of that time has been filled by playing Mass Effect, so this is my way of acknowledging the part that these games played in my recovery and that is something that I will never regret.

Beautiful work -- congratulations!
