Behind the boards

Meet the Author

I spend far too much time saving tattoo flash, swatching polish that never looks the same on my hands, and rewatching the same hair tutorial until it finally clicks. This is where all of it ends up, sorted properly, with the parts nobody mentions written down.

The long version

How this started

It started as a private board nobody else could see. Hundreds of screenshots, no order, no notes, and every time I actually wanted to find something again it had vanished into the pile.

So I started writing things down properly. What the style is actually called. Where it sits well and where it does not. What it costs roughly, what it hurts roughly, and what nobody tells you until you are already in the chair.

Everything here is a real photo of real work, credited to the person who made it. No renders, no stock, no borrowed galleries. If I have not seen it healed or worn in, I say so.

The rules
  • Real Photos only, never renders or stock
  • Always The artist credited by name
  • Zero Pretty pictures with nothing useful written under them
