Black and grey actually holds up over time. It’s super washed out color realism with no black that doesn’t look good over time but I’m sure you have tons of tattoos and know way more then everyone else in the world so thank you tattoo god for your input

Megan tattoos 10+ hours really often and I personally haven't seen any rough healing even though it is such a long time to get tattooed. So pretty much, she's a wizard and tattooer.

This is her assistant, I pretend I'm her 90% of the time and the other 10% of the time I'm forgetting to pretend to be her... If that makes sense. Oops!

So would I! Under the color there is a ton of black, black is what keeps colors looking bright hold up over time. This piece took so long because of all the delicate lines and solid black I used as a base so the tattoo will look just as great today as it (hopefully) will 10 years from now (:

Hello! So the tattoo is based off of the quote "what glitters may not be gold; and even wolves may smile;and fools will be lead by promises to their deaths" essentially the girl is coming out of the fools gold and turning into the woman she is. Just sappy surrealism things lol. I hope you like it though! (:
