Inked guitar

As a little change from my papercut work, a good friend of mine asked me to design a tattoo for him. Personally speaking, the idea of creating a piece of art to be inked on someone's body forever is a pretty daunting one, however it only reinforced how important it is (regardless of the brief) to ensure that my client is 100% satisfied with the outcome and that the design is finished to the best of my ability.

A few weeks after receiving my finished sketch, the illustrated guitar was a permanent fixture on my friend's arm!
