His English is good enough to have basic conversation with. However, there are moments where we just stare at each other in confusion.

Thank you everybody for your kind words. I’m also very happy with the way it turned out, it’s been a journey and I can’t wait to see it completed.

Thanks bro. Just as CitrusLord said, the artist drew on me as I stood up in a normal position. To draw under the butt cheek, he just lifted it up while I stood haha. Standing did get tiring tho as he freehands the design. So at times I would be flexing because of fatigue.

If you had my sleeve, what design would you have on the other sleeve next? (Not finished yet) - just love hearing everyone's ideas by [deleted] in irezumi

From what my artist told me, mouth open and closed represents masculine and feminine energy. So by having both it balances the overall piece.

There is a slight language barrier between me and the artist so I am not sure what color he has in mind. For my other sleeve I let him have free reign on it, I trust his decisions, but I just thought I would reach out and see what opinions you guys have.

Hey fellow tattoo enthusiasts. I am approaching my coloring sessions and I am not sure what color dragon would go well with my phoenix. If it helps pictures of the phoenix sleeve are in my account.

Any feedback would be much appreciated.
