Josiah Report post Posted August 19, 2012 This design is a modified version of a traditional back piece from the 40's. I made the lace holes one size bigger than 1/8 on my multi-punch and won't do that again as it is a lot harder to keep it tight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toker Report post Posted August 21, 2012 Beautiful work! The design looks like some of Sailer Jerry's tattoo flash from that era. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Josiah Report post Posted August 21, 2012 Thanks for the compliments, they are appreciated. The scroll work was done with a 1/4 angled blade and even though I know it is not the "proper" method, I do it in about 1/8 in increments and very slowly. The original artwork is by Bert Grim, but was modified by another unknown tattoo artist and then further modified by me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David Report post Posted August 22, 2012 This design is a modified version of a traditional back piece from the 40's. I made the lace holes one size bigger than 1/8 on my multi-punch and won't do that again as it is a lot harder to keep it tight. I generally use holes 1/2 the width of the lace.... 1/4" lace through 1/8" hole. The seat looks good Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
