Augmentation Knot Celtic Tattoo Design

Many people start their tattoo career with something small on the upper arm, and later their enthusiasm for tattoos grows and so does their ambition. This man came with the colored knot on his arm already, asking that I create something new to enlarge and enhance it and that they fit together as a whole. This pattern is meant to encircle and enhance any other central element.

Celtic Warrior Full Arm Knotwork Tattoo Design

A modern day Scottish-Viking Warrior with many tattoos came in with a special request. He wanted to have the effect of large-scale chain mail on his arm, reaching from the wrist up to the bottom of a portrait, and flowing under a pre-existing Celtic cross and other tattoos. We morphed a pattern previously designed for a leg and made it fit this new adaptation.
