Surface bars and tattoos

This inverted cross started as a burn from a brand, you can see a small pinkish line that will dissapear soon. I liked the scar so much that I tattooed it onto my leg, covering most of the scar (except that one little line). The tattoo itself will one day be incorporated into a larger mural covering my entire leg, but for now since it stands alone I decided to play with it. Ive never used surface bars before so inserting them was a challenge. I was fishing for the exit holes for a while. Other than that installation was relatively smooth. I love how they look and match the width of the tattoo, and I hope I dont have to take them out any time soon - theyre just too cool to remove...
