I’m 99% sure these two hand tattoos haven’t been posted before – The portrait on the left is based upon the work of Gil Elvgren and is by Joe Capobianco (Hope Gallery, CT). On the right is an “armour effect” tattoo by Tony Powers, Northern Minnesota.

WOW. Those are just stunning. The colors on the portrait are just gorgeous and the detail on the armor is crazy. Love love LOVE hand tattoos! Wish I worked in an industry where I could get one too. ^_^

The one on the right has less of an “armour effect” and more of a “wicker basket effect” to me, but is still very well done.

I’d say the hand on the right is more of a “wicker chair effect”….
