Justin Bieber’s new tattoos took 26 hours to complete, and wow

Not only do we love Justin Bieber for his music, but we’re also always curious to see what tattoo he’ll get next. After all, he has more than 50 already, and counting. Now, we found out that Justin Bieber’s new tattoos took 26 hours to complete.

Bieber debuted the new ink on the morning of October 21st on Instagram, and, of course, fans went crazy. Like we said, he has dozens of tattoos already, from a bear to an eagle, but this one is the biggest yet. It’s a gothic scene that includes an angel, a skeleton, clouds, and “what appears to be a set of large windows reminiscent of a scene from a Renaissance painting,” according to Refinery29. And this new tattoo ensemble covers his ~entire~ stomach.

Like we said, wow. Or ouch?

Here’s a look at Bieber’s Instagram post, introducing the tattoos to everyone.

And here’s a closer look at the tattoo art. Amazing!

The tattoo artist responsible? Keith “Bang Bang” McCurdy, who also posted on Insta about the tattoos.

Um…three days?! That’s a lot of patience! You may remember some of Bieber’s other recent tattoos, too, like this one from last November. You can barely see it these days with his new additions, btw.

And in case you’re wondering what Bieber looked like before he was full of ink, here’s a reminder.

We almost didn’t recognize him! And, as InStyle pointed out, one fan found this old David Letterman clip of Bieber.

LOL-LOL-LOL! While it looks like Bieber is definitely running out of room for more tattoos, we wouldn’t be surprised if he continues getting additional ones in the future. Though, after those 26 hours, we imagine he may first need some recovery time!
