Inking Emma!

Up early.. we set off on our trek via public transport to the Empire Tattoo Studio to meet up with Elize [click for main artist website] & [click for artists facebook page], the very talented artist who did my kiwi tattoo previously!

We stopped by Starbucks for a coffee and some people watching to kill a little time before jumping on the tram and heading out to the studio.. which didn't take nearly as long as one thought so we had to spend a little time waiting at the bus stop for her to even arrive! Doh! Oh well.. better early than late right? We head in.. get images sorted.. Emma requires the loo.. which is when Elize discovers that the water isn't working! Just our luck right? after several phone calls and kerfuffle.. Elize heads over to the supermarket to buy some water to at least get started on the inking.. hoping that the water would come right within the next few hours!

Last photo of Emma's arm.. nekkid!
Getting shaved! The girl was seriously hairy! :P
Getting the last of the outlining done.. still no tears!
Outline complete! How cute he look.. kinda nekkid!?
Colouring has commenced!
Only just the hat at this stage.. so red!
He is yet to get his drunk look on!
The completed, very awesome Engelbrekt!
Emma now has a drunk little gnome friend!
