The Tattoo, refreshed

I went back to Capital City Tattooz to refresh the tattoo of the constellation Orion I got recently. The brown dots, intended to resemble natural beauty marks, needed to be deepened in color a bit, and the biggest star—representing Betelgeuse–needed more red.

That’s better. The red had previously fallen out and needed to be redone, else it look like a muddled blue cross. When this heals, I think the two colors will be equally vivid.

I love my tattoo. I’ve always thought having a lot of beauty spots made me look like an inverse night sky—might as well run with the concept!
