Latest tattoo lowdown.....

[idyllsend]

Just got home from packing the back of my neck.

Fuck me is all I can say. Absolutely drilled the fuck out of me.

Not easy going for Ol mate either, belting into that weathered, rubbery skin.

Was a solid drilling to pack this area out.

Regardless, it's done. We never have to visit this site again.

Now, for post tattoo recovery. Hot shower/ cold cider hand in hand.

Hands down, one of the best backsides I've ever seen.

@Mick Weder - excellent! I love the flames - the background really makes the shark jump. Nice topping to an awesome back piece.

Enjoy the cider - I might raise a few later myself.

Got my first leg tattoo yesterday, at the London convention. By Eli Quinters.

@SeeSea: Cozumel is just beautiful. I haven't been in years...I bet that all happened after the last time I was there (though I didn't know the reefs well enough to remember their names, so I'm not sure). Dad is landlocked and retired in Colorado these days, but I should definitely look into the Tuneup. NJ might be a little far to travel, though I appreciate the invitation. :cool: I also did my first (and only) shark dive on the Fiji/Tahiti trip. My memory is that it was mostly black tip reef sharks.

And speaking of sharks, grats, @Mick Weder! (And now I will stop derailing tattoo thread with dive talk. :o)

[SeeSea]

@sophistre - as long as the commentary is related to tattoos, it's all good! So @Mick Weder makes the shark talk all completely acceptable at least for the next couple days :-)

Nothing else on my legs, but got a few other tattoos yeah.

Thanks. My thoughts exactly. Looks a bit lonely down there so I'm itching to start filling them up with more.

Cool tattoo @ThatGuy. I'm in the same situation of starting to collect tattoos on my legs soon, promised myself a year off which is up in December. Started browsing the forums again and looking at cool tattoos and after going to the London convention Friday the bug is back to get started! Also was thinking to try to get a small piece from someone at smith street, but still not sure with regards to getting tattooed at conventions, also the lower leg is not the best placement for sitting in a chair.

Anyway maybe next year and as previously stated great start to your legs mate.......

... still not sure with regards to getting tattooed at conventions, also the lower leg is not the best placement for sitting in a chair.

Tell me about it. The whole right side of my body went numb half-way through. Was basically sitting sideways on a chair with my leg ontop of an arm-rest. Worth it though.

Understatement of the freaking year.

Got this Namakubi from Pino Cafaro on Saturday at the London Tattoo Convention. Pino was a great guy and I'm vey happy with the outcome. It's on my chest so it was hard for him to tattoo given that there was no bench. Tricky to do in a chair.

[Russ]

Got this chest eagle off Steve Byrne last week

Don't think I posted these either

Fudo of Stewart Robson

Leopard off Valerie Vargas

Scorpion off Valerie too

And this mad skull off Andrea Furci

[hogg]

Jesus Christ, you have great tattoos, @Russ.

[Iwar]

@robz & @Russ, Amazing stuff you guys!! That Robson Fudo head though... Damn, I wish that sucker was on my arm, haha! I'm boiling over with tattoo jealousy!

[Al Pascarelli]

@Russ that scorpion is awesome!

[ItsNewport]

Damn @Russ way to raise the bar there!

[mitchb25]

@robz @Russ, makes me wanna travel half way across the world to get some work done

[PickingUpDust]

Had such a great time at the London Convention on Saturday, didn't get a chance to see much of it but I ended up getting tattooed by Greg Christian on top of my appointments with Bert Krak and Eli Quinters.

The frog and fly are from Eli and the eagle and snake from Greg (picture from his instagram). I dont have a picture of the Ed Hardy Butterfly I got from Bert but i'll post one when I do.

[bulldog]

@Russ , Show off....!

Awesome tattoos man.

[peterpoose]

Florian is really fast, well fastest artist I've had work on me.

My idea of course didn't work lol not enough room so we had a compromise. He has never**done a spider before, so I broke his virginity.

5 hours for this but this place is so painful and sensitive. Shit pics, red raw and swollen.

I personally love what he has done. The space was a lot smaller than we thought :)

Tomorrow off to Silvano again!

[Jackrabbitt666]

@Russ that Leopard is soo sweet!! Looks awesome!

Had this Eagle and Skull combo done at the convention by Paul Dobleman

[CShaw]

Finally got some color in yesterday :)

[ironchef]

@CShaw Lovely peonies

[CShaw]

Thank you, @ironchef--I thought of your peonies thread when I was going through my pics from yesterday :) I can't wait to see how the color heals up--there's some white in the petals that's starting to show as the redness underneath fades.
