Evolution of a Firefighter Tattoo

Watch the development and progress of this tattoo as we add photos of each update.

	This was the original tattoo photo. It was submitted October 13, 2006.   This was the first session, it took 4 hours to complete. Jonathan meets with his tattoo artist every week for 2 hours to work on this tattoo.
	This was the next update we received a week later. Some color & detail were added to the fire.
	This firefighter tattoo update was added to 'Strike the Box' on October 29th; notice the shading & detail work.
	Update added Nov 3rd. Coloring to dragon's head & wing.
	This tattoo is really shaping up now. Stan, the artist, is really doing an awesome job. The detail in the shading is remarkable.   ( update added 11/14 )
	On this update you'll notice that the dragon's right wing has been added and colored along with the coloring of his arm (or paw...) on the right side. ( update added 12/13 )
	This tattoo is almost complete; just a couple of things left to do. 1st is to color the tail that goes over the left shoulder. And 2nd, as if this tattoo isn't spectacular enough; Jonathan has decided to add UV ink to the Skeletal System of the dragon and the firefighter!! (update added 02/01/08)
