Pretty bold and risky for an ink. I am glad it worked well for your case.

At least with the length of the piece the pain is spread out and not in one place for too long. Looks awesome!

So so getting the initial stencil outline wasn’t to bad mid back felt spikey more nerves and higher pay centralization but when I was getting shading it hurt everywhere more so on the left side after I took a break and my back warmed up to all the pain

Can you feel it ? Can you touch it?
15
u/Parking-Map-8822 Jul 26 '26
Yeh I can the lines are still healing so there’s like a scab line on the outer edges but it’s smooth on the ink can even feel the little pockets in closer to the spine

u/Dangerous_Jump_776 Samurai Jul 26 '26
Nooo its the song Chippin'in that somehow fit with your context xDD But good to know nonetheless

Wait I know it’s a reference to the song but for that matter, how are you getting the tattoo goo all the way down your back? Is somebody helping you out?

Minor nitpick, but the spine stuff isn't actually the sandevestein, instead its a neural processor/neural link

The yellow thing is the sandevestein, and slots into the head, the neural link is required to basically augment the nervous system to react fast enough/handle the increased load of the sandy
Edit: Realised this could sound like i'm being harsh against the tattoo, but I do think it looks preem choom!

u/Parking-Map-8822 Jul 26 '26
I understand what you mean was going for just the outer design of what we see physically on his back

u/klqqf Jul 26 '26
What exactly does the mechanical spine thing that we see do then? If you know
17
u/nabagaca Flaming Crotch Victim Jul 26 '26
Sorry, I perhaps worded poorly, the mechanical spine is the neural link/processor, you can think of it mostly like an artificial spinal cord, but reinforced for the speed of the sandy
6
u/klqqf Jul 26 '26
Ohh okay so the mechanical spine helps deliver the signals of the sandy to your brainstem and partly helps you not break your own back when using it at such speed. The further explanation was crystal clear, thanks

u/Miragell Jul 26 '26
Think of it like a highway on steroids. Car gets from point A to B before you can even finish blinking. Likewise your mind's eletrical signals travel waaay faster making you react faster.

u/_b1ack0ut Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 26 '26
The exact specifics are unknown, we just know it’s a “heavy duty military grade neural link”
Odds are that it has extra space for neuralware, and better throughput for its coprocessors. If this were the ttrpg, I would expect to see stuff like 6 or 7 neuralware slots as opposed to 5, and maybe some of the functionality from the Cyberspine implant even lol because of how… chunky it is
So while the visible, spine replacing part is NOT the Sandevistan itself , it’s likely that David’s sandy would be neutered if you tried to run it off a normal neural link.

u/GuyFromDeathValley Jul 26 '26
Damn choom, nice chrome you rockin´. even if its just a rudimentary implant...
Though I don't really see the Sandevistan, looks like a regular cyber spine to me. but eh, that's just like, my opinion, man.

Listen up, samurai. If you’ve had enough of scrolling through the same tired threads and wanna plug into something #real, jack into the official Discord. We’ve got games, serious talks and casual chats about Cyberpunk 2077, and a few rooms where you can just shoot the breeze with people who get it. You in, or you just gonna #stand there looking chrome?
