I do tree work so it’s a lot of climbing dragging a lot of friction on my cloths and body I also get super sweaty and dirty as all hell getting wood chips and dirt etc on me, it’s also the middle of summer and it’s been like 80-100° regularly for the last month anyways I wanna know how to plan around this I have Saturday and Sunday off but obviously that’s not enough time for a tattoo to heal

Edit: my main concern is the friction as I said I’m climbing a tree and dragging branches all day there a lot of rough wood running on my legs and arms and body in general throughout the day yes I would plan to use second skin but that kinda seems like using a plastic bag as a parachute

two sessions, 10 hours total under the needle. my second tattoo. this was my sons prosthetic cover for his leg. super happy with the results. some minor issues I can see, but a lot of involuntary reflexes kicked in and I’ll take the blame for any lines out of whack

my pics are 4 days after the last session

edit: a few expected comments on the line work, and I’m not going to comment on those. My son passed away 10 years ago and been planning this for the last 5. The artist looked and studied the original before almost every time he put the needle on me. and maybe I put too much into that’s, but he did everything he could to represent the request I made . I have no regrets.
