By now, I'm sure we've all seen Ed Sheeran's new (and massive) lion head tattoo on his chest. The piece is absolutely beautiful and according to end very painful. It took roughly 6 hours to do says Sheeran's tattoo artist Kevin Paul and still has about 6 more hours of work left to be complete. Paul does most of Ed's ink and says he "usually handles the pain well". With this one it was quite the opposite. "...Through the last hour on this piece you could see the pain started to get to him. The chest is a painful place to get inked," he explains.
What exactly does it mean for the singer/songwriter, though? Ed wanted to get massive ink tatted on him for selling out a trio of shows at Wembley Stadium. Originally he was going to get the floor plan of the arena, but opted for the lion instead. We must say he made a great choice, it looks stunning!
