The new trend in tattoos to add a honeycomb pattern and then collect tattoos by having artists fill in the shape is a fantastic idea. As someone who collects art of all kinds and loves getting tattoos I instantly fell in love with the idea. However, the honeycomb pattern felt very unlike me. I really enjoyed the idea though and I kept seeing it and thinking about it. Eventually I figured out a way to make it goth and I ended up creating a repeating coffin pattern.
I took some time to find a local artist who did great line work and found SweetBaphomet (Instagram) based at Black Serpent Tattoo (Instagram) in West Hollywood, CA. While at the tattoo shop this weekend getting the outlines done one of the other artists dubbed it "coffin-comb" and I enjoyed that so I am using it. I also started getting some messages about how much people liked the idea so I decided to make the pattern available to all as a PDF. Feel free to download the pattern and use it for your own "coffin-comb" tattoo. If you do tag me on social media @SlevinMors so I can see what you do with it.
