the unveiling...

After first washing and application of moisturizer. It's pretty simple (although I'm going to go back next month for a background of light blue), but it's my fish.

Also, shaving my arm was one of the more disconcerting sensations I've experienced. Without arm hair, my arms are super pale.

And here I suspected skydiving for just a moment.

No, no, it's been far too windy for skydiving here. Plus, crashing is a little more problematic.

Yay, Mr. Fish Memorial!

Also, your arm is pretty super-pale WITH armhair.

[solipsistnation.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but the arm hair casts enough of a shadow that it disguises the sheer pastiness of my skin...

The face on Mr. Fish is beautiful. Even oddly human-like at a glance.

Yeah, Aaron did a really good job... He got Mr. Fish's pensive face, which is mostly what he looked like while floating around. Bettas have silly little trapdoor mouths that can look really expressive if you catch them right, and I'm really happy with how this came out.

Growing-back arm hair is more itchy than the actual tattooed bit. :/
