RAS tattoo part TWO

after a few delays i finally got a tattoo appointment yesterday that actually went thru WAHOO. this one took about 4 hours of sitting there with a mask so yeah Pain i'm kinda in disbelief i sat thru that

rlly happy tho! it's my own design (with a few changes like i picked darker colors to hold longer) and it's not finalized quite yet (touch-ups in 3 weeks, and the faint lines on the colors should disappear)

so far my tattoos stand for my progress regards mental health and just myself as a person, RAS happened to be a very relevant interest of mine during this journey so i tie them in that regard with sentimentality a whole lot. plus this kinda style's just suuper my aesthetic
