I’ve shown you the black half of this tattoo before, but I just had to share the full version, split up into balanced left and right luminosities, by Lionel at Out of Step (seriously, I know I push his work a lot, but do check out his gallery for more pictures).

I think I’ve said it before, but I love the way the black fades (wanting a better word for this, but am just to tired to think of it) out at the top. Oh, no wait. I just love black work in general.

I agree with SnailLuv – a bit hard to see in this picture.

Oh. God. Solid. Black. Tattoo!
I LOVE the way the black arm mixxes into his skin; its like rough brush strokes or something. Very cool.
