Two little omamori designs I’ve drawn up, one chrysanthemum and one peony. They’re both available to be tattooed, drop me a message on Instagram to claim or to tell me your ideas!
My first pin (of three) for SacAnime! And yes, I have been playing a lot of Stardew Valley, thanks for asking. It and Animal Crossing keep me sane while con prepping! ⭐️
Look at this stunning chrysanthemum tattoo we did for our client! This flower has different meanings in different cultures and colors. The tattoo is black and white and realistic. #machotattoos #chrysanthemumtattoo #realistictattoo #flowerpower #tattooart #alttextLook at this stunning chrysanthemum tattoo we did for our client!

side note! Noriko is deaf, she has a cochlear implant but doesn’t wear it often because she’s always in the water or in a boat, she has just finished signing “courage” to Elina here
There's more than one reason why he's known as the 'Demon Cop'
Look this is 100% self gratifying crack.
Based on my own 100% genuine experience:
I have a large tattoo, across my chest, shoulder blades and back.
So, I was fairly resigned to the fact I'd probably never get to go to a public bath whilst visiting my friend in Japan, fair enough.
One day however, she says she'd found a bath that allowed tattoos, and not just tiny ones that could be hidden by a plaster.
So I go, very excited, and end up round the back of an area with a lot of signs advertising SoapIands and LoveHoteIs.
I explain in the shakiest Japanese to the lady manning the counter that I have a large tattoo and she waves me in nonplussed.
Pretty much every man there is covered in tattoos.
Whilst I was drying my hair, one of them tries to ask me something but my Japanese was no where near good enough to answer.
When I get back my friend seemed a little worried and then confesses that she'd found out, after I'd left, that she'd sent me to a yakuza bathhouse.
I wish I was able to understand what that man was trying to say to me.
Tried drawing out a concept for what I had in mind ( the drawing itself isn’t close to what I saw in my head but it’s a really good start I think :)
I kept trying so many different combinations for this for like two days lol ultimately in the end I’ll end up commissioning a way more talented/amazing artist to take this lowly art and make it awesome 🥰
Flowers are Roses, White Lilies, Belladonna flowers and Chrysanthemums (was really debating having sunflowers for yang but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )
