A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Tattoo

Creating tattoos that bring back fond memories can be quite rewarding! There is no doubt that, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer tattoo I created earlier this week, did just that!

I remember becoming absorbed in the wild world of Buffy as a teen. Little did I know that I would be tattooing images from the show years later!

Luckily for me, there are other Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans out there! Awesomely enough, one of those fans found me and commissioned me to tattoo her! 

She loved the "B" from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer logo but wanted it slightly modified. So I added a bit of definition to the stake in the letter, a few blood drops, and voila! Her design was born! 

Do you think it’s cool to get tattoos from popular t.v. show? Would you ever get a Buffy the Vampire Slayer tattoo? Leave a comment and let me know what you think!

Cute Mouse Tattoo

There are so many neat places on the body to tattoo but my favorite spot  is the feet. Yesterday I got to tattoo a really cute door mouse on a girl's foot.

She found some of my work on a site called Reddit and loved the quality of my work. She contacted me and said she had an original drawing that she wanted to have turned into a tattoo for her foot. 

After viewing her drawing (which was quite nice), I decided there were only a few things that needed to be changed around to be made more "tattooable". So I booked an appointment for her, made the changes needed to the drawing, and set it in my "to do pile". 

A few days later my client came in for her appointment and loved the small changes I made. It took about two hours total to tattoo the whole design and she sat so well. 

My client said she enjoyed the whole experience so much, that she will be coming back soon for another tattoo from me! 

If you are interested in getting a tattoo from me you can e-mail me at melissacapotattoo@gmail.com to book an appointment or ask questions.
