i would do anything for Buffy, but I would especially incorporate her into your tattoo 🐶

Frost sword raven for Kris! really looking forward to seeing this one healed and settled in, there’s a lot of overlapping grey tones and hues that will really shine once the skin isn’t so red.

one of my fav cover ups i’ve gotten to do lately. lots of subtle warm and cool pigment greys mixed in there to help with saturation and definition. #danbones #memoirtattoo #coveruptattoo #raven #birdtattoo

loose watercolor study (like no drawing loose) for a painting I’ve been working on. trying to have more fun with color, this is mostly different mixes of indigo and magenta. about 3” tall.

I made a flash sheet of Battle Birds a while back and I’ve tattooed a few of them so far. I plan on making more once I’m done with this other flash sheet I’m in the middle of.

Quick introduction - I’m Dan Bones, and I do technical illustrative tattoo work. I’m a former animator and motion graphics designer, and occasionally a set designer. I play guitar in Hyper Psychic, and you can usually find me bouldering, painting, or doing karaoke. Also proudly anti fascist.

Here’s a concept sketch i did that got rejected as a shirt design back in 2019. It’s just kinda lived in the back burner for the past 6 years, but now seems like a good time to do something with it.

Truly sick one for my dude Aniket, who is a phenomenal drummer and plays in Hyper Psychic with me.

I really loved getting to do this portrait series of The Fly. First of all, Jeff Goldblum. Second, David Cronenberg. Third, I also broke someone’s arm while arm wrestling once and that is sadly 100% true.
