Graeme Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Welcome Scott, my opinion is that mixing styles is pretty rad. - - - Updated - - - Here's one from Henning Jorgenson's instagram from a few months ago. The front was done by Grime, the rooster by Scott Sylvia, the eagle by Tim Lehi, and Henning tied it all together with background and did the armpits. I think that looks super rad.

deadsp0t Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 ^I agree, the pieces on my arm are different styles to some extent an I'm planning in using the Japanese style clouds and smoke to tie together and fill in. I personally think traditional American stuff and and Japanese stuff go together very well in most cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
