Nopalito

I tattooed myself for the second time this evening. It is of a cactus and is on my upper right thigh. The stencil didn't stay so the majority of it was done freehand and upside down. I have a few more parts to add, and have a little more shading to do.

I did a cactus with a hat in honor of my Grandpa Rangel. His nickname is Nopalito which means cactus. He was called that because he always ate cactus. He also loves his hat which I call his Low Rider hat. This is the actual type of cactus that he eats.
