Here are the pictures I promised! I DID get to play around on a pigskin BEFORE doing these tattoos. But I was literally scribbling and doing circles and trying to figure out how it worked...then I did these. Posted in order that I did them.

Wow, you picked that up pretty quick. That last one looks pretty good, actually! I'm really enjoying watching the process, anyway. :)

I'm glad it's amusing/entartaining people instead of horrifying them!

So, did you get a chance to really stretch the skin? For some reason I thought you'd be using a pig's foot or something too, just so you could get the sense of tattooing a round surface

You mean streatch the skin as you would when tattooing a person? I attempted to do that but it was a little hard cause of how oily the pig skin was. But the attempt was definatly there! I think Im only going to be doing pig skin instead of feet because the butcher accross the street from us just gives us the pig skin for free. (Feet you'd have to pay for as people.....eat...pig feet

How exciting! I remember the first couple of tattoos I did, they probably should have been on pig skin ha ha... Can't wait to see more!

Awesome!

If these are you first attempts with pigskin, you're going to be an amazing tattoo artist :D

There's a visible improvement from first to last.

What more could you reasonably ask?
