@otisc , that was one of Jamie's concerns too when I first sent her my source material during our online consultations. The size of the piece and her rendition of the material was to minimize the risks of it becoming a dark blob, and I really appreciated her taking the time to tell me her reasoning and make me a part of the process. She really took her time during the session as well, which was almost 5 hours. I don't think I could've had a better first experience getting tattooed, and this piece is one that I believe will be hard for me to top!
