Thanks guys, It was definitely one of the worst place to get tattooed for me :)

Aah your nipple! No thank you.

@beez's ongoing Diamond Club collaboration is one of the coolest tattoos I've seen on here. I would love to hear about how it has evolved since it began, if you feel like posting about that sometime.

[beez]

@polliwog - Oh, wow, thank you! I've written about it a few different times, let me see if I can find and link to them/do a little write up when I have a bit more time. I know we all love talking about our tattoos here :))))

Not baby related (but congrats, everyone)...

Got this rainy dude from Tron last week when she was at Atlas in Portland. Awesome experience and glad to fill this weirdo spot on my leg.

Butta, butta, butta, ...BUTT SNAKE! Pow! Bam! Kersmash!

Awesome snake @beez! That portion is by Shad right? Can't wait to see it all tied together with all of Junii's work.

And happy to see Chuck doing well.

[beez]

@Lance thank you so much re Chuck, you made my morning when I read that. :)))

This snake is by Matt (Dr. Claw). I have my first session w Shad in a few weeks! 4/2-4/3. An early birthday present to myself!

Has anyone been tattooed by Shad? Would love a little info if so!

The lady and I went down to Dedication Tattoo for their 2 year anniversary party yesterday, they had a huge sheet of designs to choose from drawn up by them and their guests for the day and we had a lot of fun just getting spontaneous tattoos and hanging out at the shop.

Bryce Operandi put a rose on my elbow, and she got a butterfly girl head from CJ Fishburn. CJ talked her into doing black and gray and I think it looks rad. Elbow wasn't as miserable as I expected either so that's a bonus.

[BrookR70]

Finally finished. This one took about 25 hours. The artist asked me if I liked it. I told him yes. He said good, because you're stuck with it now. No panther is going to cover this thing. Ha!

The colors are brighter than what I expected, but they are growing on me. Overall, I'm pleased with how it turned out.

The coolest part about this experience, is that I feel like I can just go down to the shop and hang out and have some beer and pizza with these guys. It's a really fun place to hang out and I'm definitely going to get more work done by him. But the artist knows I'm also getting pieces done by others in the area. He recommended several to me.

[el twe]

@exume - the placement of that butterfly/girl's head is phenomenal! Rose is clean as hell too...

[exume]

@el twe thanks, we're stoked! I'm excited to see hers settle down and the details pop a bit, the spiderweb he put in the bottom wing is going to look great healed. Glad I finally got my first elbow out of the way, that blank space was starting to bother me.

Saw this on Instagram! Super sick! Congrats, el twe!

I've been avoiding my ditches as long as I could, but a few sundays ago I decided it was time. jason ochoa at greenpoint tattoo put this rose in there and now that it's healed, I'm stoked to do the other arm. it didn't hurt nearly as bad as I expected and it was pretty much healed within a week or so using tegaderm. definitely a believer in that shit. if there's a thread discussing that stuff, let me know and I can share my experience.

anyway, here's a healed pic:

For healing certain spots, I had great use out of it too.

Has anyone been tattooed by Shad? Would love a little info if so!

...I'd like to get a spot with him in late-April if he visits my city ;)

I've only heard some stories really hoping my opportunity works out...if you want something bad enough, the greater universe will make it happen for ya. good luck with yours @beez !

[Synesthesia]

Another one by Brian Via, picked a drawing off his wall of stuff he wanted to do. Inner bicep and it hurt like hell, especially the stuff by the top near my armpit. So happy with it though.

Looking sweet man. Been considering seeing John Reardon at Greenpoint.

Got this tiger shark on my calve 3 weeks ago from a dude named Brad Dawe who owns Hell or High Water in Moncton, New Brunswick.

Finally healed! But still a bit shiny.

[exume]

Can't go wrong with a Lehi tiger.

[Lance]

Well done @exume! Lehi Tigers. Nope can't go wrong at all.

[heathenist]

First one since June (aside from a little Halloween special). Matt Arriola.
