Cybernetic Skull and Sword

I originally drew this cybernetic skull and sword design as a print, not intending it for skin. However, when a regular customer requested it, I gave it my best shot, and it turned out to be a challenging but rewarding piece.

My second tattoo is a stunning fusion of Hollow Knight, Zelda, and Dark Souls. It took about 5 hours, and I'm incredibly happy with the result, especially my artist William's amazing shading skills.
