Gruesome Torso

This full torso wraparound tattoo (see other views elsewhere in my gallery) was an epic collaboration between Jeff Ensminger and I that spanned approximately 5 years. Vittorio is a warrior and a dedicated client, flying from his home in Italy once or twice per year to get multiple brutal sessions from Jeff and I simultaneously. We had several very difficult coverups on the front portion you see here, as well as working into previous tattoos done by some other great tattooers. In the end, we came out with a fairly cohesive bio-organic motif of gruesome human anatomy...all of which puts Vittorio in the running for the most metal dude ever.
