I think the hand is supposed to be in a glove. I don’t get the tattoo. I would love to know where the placement is

I like that it looks like an odd composite of skin and glove.

Perhaps it’s a glove made of someone else’s skin. Either way I’d like to hear the story behind this, it looks like it’d be really interesting 😀

Boo to all that complained! Although I’ve never been tattooed by Ryan Nutini at Skin of a Different Color, I have had all my ink and piercings (Kivaka and Hole with a Soul) done there and they are all amazingly talented. I’m sure there is a great story behind the tattoo and Ryan Nutini did exactly what the customer wanted. As for the nail on the glove, anyone with a little longer nails shows like that through latex gloves. Skin of a Different Color is one place you just can’t talk shit about, there’s just nothing bad to say.

Dani I don’t think anyone is talking shit about the artist, they just don’t get the tattoo. Neither do I, really XD And latex gloves should be tight, this glove is baggy, and I agree that the nail wouldn’t show like that…

@ Dani:
What Almaxaquotal said.
And it doesn’t look like a latex glove…more like a big rubber glove. I’d love to hear the backstory.
