Significant pain, may require breaks during session
Expect moderate discomfort due to session length and shading density. The upper back and thigh offer thicker skin, reducing sharpness compared to bony areas. Flame shading requires repetitive needle work, causing heat buildup. Practice deep breathing during heavy shading phases. Breaks every 45 minutes help manage fatigue and keep stillness high for precise text work. Numbing cream is permissible if approved by your artist.
For optimal readability of the scripture and figure proportion, choose flat surfaces with minimal curvature. The upper back center offers ample space for the vertical layout and text banner. Chest center placement works well for front visibility but requires careful contouring over the sternum. Thigh front placements allow for larger scaling without distortion during movement. Avoid highly mobile joints like elbows or knees where the text may warp. Minimum width should be 6 inches to maintain line integrity in the facial details and lettering.
