Stay Marked Tattoo

The key hanging from the beak was the trickiest part. It had to read as metal and delicate without disappearing into the feathers around it. We built the contrast slowly, keeping the shading on the bird consistent while making that tiny key feel like a separate material entirely.

The individual feather layering took a while too. Each one shaded separately to give the chest that dimensional, lifted look.

Really happy with how this one came together.

Send us a DM. We'd love to hear about your idea.
