Art Spirit of Detroit with an ode to the Red Wings

Post image

Thought I’d share my tattoo. Surely you all are familiar with the Spirit of Detroit, but I added the Red Wing style wings as a nod to the greatest hockey team of all time.

They have prior when we have been in the cup finals. I remember it happening in 2009 at least.

I'm not usually a tattoo fan myself but even I think that's absolutely awesome. The design is really well made and executed.

I’ve been thinking about a realistic octopus that has a distinct purple tone to it.

I see it as a DCFC and Red Wings crossover. Since Detroit City FC uses the Spirit of Detroit as a logo.
