Hi all,
Working on a new project, looking for some feedback.
This is our second commission build of a
Tattooable guitar. We did one about 2-3 months ago that came out killer. We are still waiting on the customer to send us some pics of the completed art work. If we get the tattooist permission, we will post the pics of our first build along with this build.
Our first build came in the form of a commission after we presented the idea to one of our clients we have done other work for. We all really liked the idea of musicians being able to apply truly unique and personal artwork on a guitar body. Of course people have done this type of thing over the years with an airbrush and alike, but that requires some specialized equipment, skills, and was usually done in one sitting. That is to say, you would choose a design and someone else did all the prep, painting, etc. in one shot. Also, for a large scale guitar manufacture, they could only do so many designs in a cost effective way.
This type of build allows you to take the guitar into practically any
tattoo shop in the world and have them lay down some mean stuff. Also really cool if you want, buy a tattoo machine kit, get into an awesome state of mind, grab your headphones, and go crazy with your own skills. I personally have gotten “lost” working on other projects using the same materials.
This build is going to get some preliminary tattoo work as part of the build, and then the client is going to have work done in all the different places they tour. It will be like a track record of where and when they toured, along with whatever else they can think of.
Sorry about the quality of these pics. I only had the shop camera handy when I took them. But after we get to the next stage, I will use a better camera and show more detail.
Thanks,
Robert
