[Pugilist]

Cross country road trip with the tatbros!

Hey everyone. It's been a while so here are a couple new things.

Got the "born lost" skull from Ross K. Jones at Idle Hand's get what you want. The flash was redrawn by Austin Maples.

Also got this shishi head from Koji Ichimaru while he's at SOG.

[Cork]

Major tattoo envy going on here. I knew those peonies were on guys here when I saw them on Instagram. And that damn Fudo Monmon Cat is on @ivarro isn't it?

[Graeme]

I haven't posted this on here yet. Session four on my back, we shaded my butt and thigh.

[CultExciter]

Jesus @Graeme like I said, I'm rethinking every idea i have for my back. I mean, tiger and snake, why would you need anything else? :D

Sure is. I drove him to State of Grace to get it. And it looks even better in person.

Your back looks amazing, @Graeme. I loooove the background. Tell me: how did you enjoy those asscrack waves? Were you aware that you could clench that hard?

[Graeme]

@hogg The worst thing about the asscrack waves was the feeling that I was getting my anus tattooed. He didn't actually go that deep but it felt like he did. I guess this is what that spot feels like and I thought I was mentally prepared for it, but nothing can get you ready for what it actually feels like. The full ass tattoo certainly falls into the category of "questionable behavior".

Dude I saw that Fudo monmon cat backpiece in person while I was getting that shishi. It was right before the black shading and it already looked fucking amazing. Can't wait to see it colored.

[SStu]

Well, we (finally) started - after almost 2 years waiting for him to move and cut down his list a bit.

Start of a full half squidpant. I wasn't going to post it yet - but he did, so I stole this image off of Thomas' instagram:

[cvportagee]

Well since Stewart posted it on his instgram.....I will repost it here. Mine is top left. I will post a bigger pic when it heals.

[Graeme]

@SStu Excellent.

[smiling.politely]

Fun times in New York with my newly immigrated fiancée. Bug is on her by Bert Krak, torch and rose are on me by Eli Quinters and Beau Brady, respectively.

[hogg]

@SStu, that's one of my favorite Hooper pieces in a long while. Congrats!

@cvportagee, I love that one! And @KBeee, is one of those on you? Please tell me you got that Oiwa.

[CABS]

Been kinda forgetful/lazy to post in this thread. If you follow me on IG, then these are not new. I've gotten these since the Rassier baby heads.

Tuesday flash from Candi Kinyobi at Tuesday Tattoo in San Francisco, CA. Under the tutelage of Jesse Tuesday (who's a badass tattooer that's totally under the radar).

Ultimate sad girl with sad heart from happy tattooer and fellow LST'er Carolyn LeBourgeois @cltattooing at FTW Tattoo in Oakland, CA.

Tengu from Stewart Robson at Black Heart Tattoo in San Francisco, CA. Was able to nab a cancellation thanks to Ross "INSIDE SCOOP" Hogg. I unfollowed a bunch of tattooers on IG, so I totally wouldn't have known about this. Thanks again @hogg!

[ironchef]

@SStu WOW! Hooper KILLED it! Can't wait to see more!

[Fala]

Thomas Hooper, drool... wow @SStu

[KBeee]

@SStu, that's one of my favorite Hooper pieces in a long while. Congrats!

@cvportagee, I love that one! And @KBeee, is one of those on you? Please tell me you got that Oiwa.

No Oiwa...and it is indeed a MOST excellent one! Mine is the apsara/tennyo-messenger-spirit-thingy on the right. I was already getting a little puffy in that pic so she's distorted. Not nearly as pretty as she really is. Will post a healed one, well...when it heals :D.

How awesome/intense is the next week of posts going to be with the convention and post-convention guesting?! I'm so excited and also kinda don't want to see. I want them all...really.

[hogg]

@Kbee that apsara/tennyo-messenger-spirit-thingy is gorgeous! You have impeccable tastes.

[edenkid]

Beyond happy with this rose from Chris Garver this week. Pic stolen from his IG

[HaydenRose]

What in the fuck is going on in this thread. Y'all are killin shit! *bows down*

[KVipers]
