A favorite unicorn from my repeatable flash, done a while back on a talented friend (howeirdtattoos on instagram) 💫

This one still makes me so happy whenever I look at it! I still want to do more in other colors…

A back-of-the-thigh tattoo of a stylized unicorn portrait with tufted fur and a flowing sinuous mane. The unicorn’s body is rendered with soft peachy oranges while the mane has a cool, deep sea green palette. We used bright turquoise and chartreuse for the horn and the spiky 8 point stars accenting the piece. Another angle of the same back-of-the-thigh tattoo of a stylized unicorn portrait with tufted fur and a flowing sinuous mane. The unicorn’s body is rendered with soft peachy oranges while the mane has a cool, deep sea green palette. We used bright turquoise and chartreuse for the horn and the spiky 8 point stars accenting the piece. This angle shows the back of the leg more thoroughly, as well as the unicorn’s mane in better detail.

First session on a memorial piece for a truly wonderful friend. Loved getting to make this sweet boy as fancy as he deserves, can’t wait to finish him up 🥹💞

A photograph of a fresh tattoo placed on the side of a thigh with pale skin, framed by the black and taupe pattern of the client’s pants. The design features a portrait in profile view of the client’s former cat with tufted ears and distinctive tabby markings on his face. The cat is wearing a medieval crown and a ruffled shirt sticking up above a tall tunic collar, surrounded by an ermine fur pelt and a half-finished necklace of metal medallions. The back of the cat’s head is overlapped by a large peony flower and the entire composition is ringed by several clusters of stylized leaves and berries. The lines are finished and a small amount of stipple shading has been added to the peony and the tunic collar. The final piece will be black and grey! A detail shot of the previous image, focusing on the cat’s face and princely attire.

Happy May 1st. The value of your labor belongs to you and the actions of the state are best understood as as a coordinated effort to distract you from this. The state fears an organized and unified proletariat like it fears death and rightly so. Power to the workers and power to the people

Mighty Yell is announcing some sad news. If you run a dev studio and are looking for some of the most wonderful people on the planet, we can help you get in touch.
A white background with black text. The text reads: We have some difficult news to share with everyone: Mighty Yell has had to let a few of our team members go due to financial challenges. This is not a decision we came to easily, and we know the impact it will have on our team and community. We want to be as transparent as possible regarding the layoffs, and the difficult state of funding in games. We are still on track for the release of All Systems Dance, and we will share news about the launch very soon, but right now what’s important is supporting our team through this tough time. While we wish layoffs could be avoided, we are hopeful that we will get through this difficult chapter and bring as many members of the team back as possible in the near future. Also, if you run a dev studio and are looking for some of the most wonderful people on the planet, we can help you get in touch. Your support is truly appreciated and our team is grateful for your understanding; we look forward to sharing some good news with you soon.

Closeups of the handsome vampire I got to make for @legalizegoblins.bsky.social

I love doing character pieces and getting to add extra gothy touches like the tears of blood and bat brocade (inspired by Castlevania concept art) was the icing on top.

Part fresh/part healed with some touch-ups!
A closeup shot of a portrait tattoo on pale skin. The subject is a gothic vampire in Victorian/Regency clothing in shades of muted purple and grey with red accents and some gold jewelry, including an upside-down cross earring. There is a faint brocade pattern on his tattered cloak suggestive of bat shapes. Faint misty, cloud-like shapes frame his head and curl over his hair, partly obscuring the details. He has grey, curly hair tied back in a mauve bow and pointed ears, with two beauty marks next to his eye and his mouth. His eyebrows are thick and black and frame his heavily lined red eyes. He has a strongly outlined nose and a purple tinge to his lips, with trails of blood streaming from his eyes and the corner of his mouth. The vampire’s expression is ambiguous and seems to be sizing up the viewer, perhaps faintly challenging or intrigued. In some places the outlines are darker than others due to being touched up during the final session. Much of the tattoo is already healed but some parts are fresh. A wider shot of the previous photo, this time including more of the background elements. Swirling pale blue and soft lavender mist surrounds the vampire, framing his head and shoulders and overlapping his clothing and hair in places. The tattered, stylized edges of his cloak are more visible in this shot, and his body ends at his shoulders. Three purple bat silhouettes fly above his head, and a muted golden full moon peeks out from the clouds. The moon and mist are freshly tattooed and bear a faint tinge of blood in places.

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

I love doing this tear-away style of portrait with tattered edges to the character’s shoulders, and this was my first time incorporating such a detailed outfit into the mix. Really pleased with how it came out.

More fancy portraits, please! 🙏

Thank you @legalizegoblins.bsky.social for being such a delight to work with. This truly was a dream project from start to finish, all my gratitude to you, friend 🙏

My beautiful man is done! I asked @phantomorchid.bsky.social for a handsome, gothic, Dracula-inspired vampire portrait and they delivered something incredible. Feeling like a true child of the night with this bad boy on my arm.
A portrait tattoo featuring a vampire in tattered but regal clothing, blood dripping from his eyes and mouth and a lil fang peeking out. He's surrounded by fog, and a full moon peeks through the fog, with a few bats flying by.

As a humble PSA: Pathfinder has dedicated itself to being friendly toward trans people, whereas JK Rowling has stationed herself as the grand high crusader queen of murdering trans kids. We would appreciate it if you avoided comparing the two of us.
