More work on the right sleeve
Spent a few hours last night laying some of the groundwork for getting more of the second sleeve done. This is was re-lining and darkening of my existing cross, and I think the flames look pretty darn sweet. This is re-lining and darkening of my tribal Jesus, and fixing the J (the ticks it used(…)
Starting second sleeve
