Superfan spends £6,000 covering his back and arms with Peaky Blinders tattoos
  • 2 years ago
A Peaky Blinders superfan has forked out £6,000 covering his entire back and arms in huge tattoos devoted to the hit BBC gangster series. David Hatfield, 58, has spent 125 hours under the needle getting the stunning artwork that features most of the main characters from the iconic gritty crime drama. The council worker had his first Peaky Blinders tattoo in July 2016 after wanting to cover up an old inking he had done when he was young.He started with a portrait of the main protagonist Thomas Shelby, played by Cillian Murphy, before adding more characters across his entire back. He has since forked out several thousand pounds more covering both of his arms in images of mafia man Luca Changretta and Tommy's brother Arthur Shelby. And David says he isn't finished yet as he plans to add a tribute to Helen McCrory who played Aunt Polly after she died of breast cancer last year.SWNS News, Peaky Blinders, Entertainment, Tattoos, BBC, Gangster, Protagonist, Cillian Murphy, Superfan, Huge, Series, TV, Art, Artwork, Gritty, Crime, Drama, Man, Ink, Thomas Shelby, Halesowen, West Midlands, Portrait, Stunning, Back, £6,000, Needle
