I'm in the process of haveing an old tribal tattoo covered by a new design. Since a whole chameleon wasn't practical for the shape and area, I decided to go with a parts of a chameleon. It will be an eye and a tail. The tattoo artist is going off of some of my photographs of my male panther chameleos "Steve" and his son "Osiris". The first pic is the tribal that I am covering. They are in order of sequence up to what I currently have. It is a total of 6 1/2 hours so far and probabl have 4 or 5 hours left of work. I love the progress so far. The eye is not complete yet, it will take some layering to cover the rest of the tribal that is still showing through.
