Initiation Tattoo

I have been working on this over the course of the weekend and i actually recorded the process. I will upload the video soon and put the link in the description and on my profile

This is fanart i made for the book series "Drachenelfen" by german author Bernhard Hennen.
The character Nandalee is receiving her intitiation tattoo and is now counted among the so-called dragon elves.

I know the tattoo mentioned in the book wasn´t as colourful as depicted here but i granted myself some creative freedom.

(yes, i know bamboo tattooing is done with both hands)
