God the crimes I would commit for this woman if only she would ask them of me… (I am a gay man I don’t know what’s happening)

So weird thing about me, I have a weird special interest in the history of tattoos. So i had to draw Sandy with a bunch of sexy sailor tattoos. I will hold onto my dumb headcanons (heterochromia, trans, ex-sailor) until Eric Barone gives us more Sandy content 😤 Not a second before

I present Sailor Ilya!

Look at those sleeves! So that’s what he has under those gloves, or better yet  up his “sleeves” *wink wink*.

I faded out the tattoo color layer just a bit so you can hopefully see the shading and tinting of his skin. My goodness this was such a fun piece to draw (at least the line work was fun. My favorite part so far is his left hand covered in demon feathers! I got some inspiration for his right hand from playing “Hungarian Folk Tales” on YouTube as background sound.

I will soon be posting close ups, missing portions and a backside view soon!

Enjoy!
