Earlier today I checked facebook (like I usually do...sad addiction actually). It's not unusual for me to find questions about tattoo requests and such but today, I got one that really got my attention.
This guy I used to tattoo in Auburn told me he's gonna come soon and get a half sleeve...
again nothing unusual. Until he told me of what...

A NINJA TURTLE HALF SLEEVE!!!
Dude, me and the ninja turtles go wayyyy back. For one, my love of that cartoon is what let me find out at the tender age of 8 that I could draw. My classmates shared the same psychotically intense love of these half shelled creatures, but they were forced to trace them if they wanted to create them. Not I. I could draw them, and while they probably sucked, they were easily identifiable by anyone who saw it.
"Wow that's a ninja turtle! You can really draw!"
You hear that shit enough and you start to believe it, lol. That lead to much practice and the artist you see here today.
I can't wait to do that tattoo, but in my excitement I decided to draw a ninja turtle for old times sake. Man, I've gotten a little rusty, lol. above is the image. I have a video recording of the drawing I'm editing now so come back to see that tomorrow.
Enjoy
