Wonder Woman inked
Originally uploaded by Ben Northern

The final piece to the tattoo. It's taken me a while to decide on what to fill in this empty space with - I went from Dark Phoenix, Cawoman, Zatana....and finally settled on Wonder Woman as a suggestion from Christy. Now if I can get her to stop singing the theme song....

The faded portion is the section of Harley Quinn that will wrap around my arm. This represents the natural border.

New Thor
Originally uploaded by Ben Northern

I wanted to replace Reed Richards with something more dynamic, and to be honest Thor has always been one of my favorite characters. So...Thor is in. A bit of a nod to Jack Kirby too.

Inking in progress
Originally uploaded by Ben Northern

inking is going well - this is my first pass, I'll save smaller details stuff for later. Starting to doubt the inclusion on Mr. Fantastic....But I'm at a loss on who to replace him with. Maybe Thor...he's always been a favorite.
