Head Shrinking Cover-Up
The stencil is already applied over some friend-made scratch marks in need of a cover-up. The new tattoo should be larger to better hide the old one.
This shrunken head with lots of black and bright color hides the old marks easily.

Amy Winehouse Shocking Tattoo Revealed
This customer brought in a 1940's pin-up he liked along with some photos of Amy Winehouse to use for the head and outfit. I wasn't very happy with the photos because the tattoo is on a thin arm it looks really warped in the pics and lots of glare from the flash, as usual. This one was hard to keep from looking like a transvestite pin-up, from 2007.
The Shrunkey Craze
The first shrunkey, a shrunken monkey head with fez.
'98 or '99
Shrunkey 2 from around 2000
A more animated style than traditional but I hate the term 'new school'.

Some Cowgirls I Dude
Empty handed cowgirl

I think the outline I used for this one was by Al Miller. Below we have George Petty's original cowgirl holding a branding iron from a 1939 Old Gold ad.

Girls Getting Carried Away
A Rat Fink Frankenstein with his Bride on my old downstairs neighbor, Battalion of Saints singer, George Anthony. This tattoo was George's reward for catching the crackhead that broke into my apartment while I was at work.

What a Shrunken Head
A new take on the Deadbolt shrunken head for Harley's nephew.
The Deadbolt shrunken head logo I designed around 1991 or '92.
Still in use 20 years later, who woulda guessed that one?
