Hi all

can someone reassure me that they will blend colour wise?

No. After 3 days you can't tell ANYTHING.

A tattoo takes 4-6 weeks to heal. Look at it then.

they both look black & gray, the new one will settle in and should look similar to the old one.Like was said,3 days is too soon to be healed.

tattoos take a few months to heal and longer to "settle in",

Thank you mate! Just didn’t want one looking jet black compared to the one that has gone grey…

what’s your view on patchwork sleeves? I am thinking of getting main pieces and then filling in the gaps with fillers. Should I do the fillers at the end or as I go along?

a lot of people like to do one cohesive style sleeve, I didn't go that route,

my arms are lots of pieces over the years, just do you makes you happy that month.

Looks great!  What I meant is that is it normal to go to different artists for a sleeve to look cohesive? I’ve gone to two now but the latest artists style I prefer so will stick with him! 
 

 

im sticking with the same theme for my sleeve! 🙂
