Latest tattoo lowdown.....

[iowagirl]

Thanks @SeeSea! Idn't he cute?? It's so hard to look at your back-I noticed this morning he has little highlights in his eyes. I hadn't really noticed that when Dominic had done all the outlining of this part of it last month, he had added leaves to the one that was already there. It's funny the things you don't see when it's just the outline, that you notice once all the color is in.

I always feel so pretty when I leave there. Going there makes me wonder how heavily tattooed I will end up being-he does such a fabulous job, I about don't want to finish.

>It's so hard to look at your back< As I've advised before - get a good USB web-cam and you won't snap your neck trying to admire it in mirrors! (And, it is definitely worth admiring.)

Good idea-thanks!

@PizzaSteve Ugh! So envious of you! Jeff Zuck is on the top of my list. The kind of tattoo artist I could get a whole body full of if I were to start again and not collect from different people. So glad that that tattoo is at somebody from this forum (does that make sense?), it amazed me when it popped up on instagram. Congratulations!

I saw a 15 yr old zuck tiger and panther that looked sooo good. THe lucky dude said he didnt even use lotion or sunscreen. I was taken aback I always liked most of his stuff, but seeing some large pieces in person helped me appreciate what he does even more

Got a namakubi done at a local shop. Sovereign Arms Tattoo in GR, MI. Getting tattooed around the shin hurts a lot more than I thought it would. Got a little shaky..

Finished the majority of my sleeve with Gre Hale at Rain City, Manchester, UK. Extremely happy with it, Gre is an awesome bloke, and the shop is great; packed to the brim with talented artists and character.

What do you guys think?

Just the 'pinchy' inner bicep to go.

Sweet, I love Gre Hale's work. Been pondering about a trip to Manchester for some time

@ReDile

Really nice one! Congratulations! Besides the actual tattoos I like the small dots in between. The "biker dust" filler style with a lot of small dots never appealed to me, but just a few dots here and there looks great.

Thank you buddy!!

Yeah we spent quite a while debating whether to go with the massed dot approach, but I was a fan of the negative space. It needed something in the bigger gaps though and Gre came up with this. I think it's worked!

I say go for it, he's a master at what he does, and the shop is worth a trip :) [/bias]

Agreed. Less dots looks good to me!

I've just returned home from a trip to Berlin. Brought this one home with me:

Done by Uncle Allan at Conspiracy Inc, Berlin.

I'm pretty excited about this one. A rose by Allan has been on my wishlist for a loooong time, so it's amazing to finally check it off the list.

Got this little one a couple weeks ago from Paul Dobleman at Spider Murphy's:

[Synesthesia]

^ Damn, that's a beauty. Can Paul Dobleman do no wrong? Every piece I've seen by him is flawless.

Thanks for posting awesome stuff on the last couple pages so I can live vicariously through you guys. :D My next tattoo is scheduled for July 31st and it can't get here soon enough.

[MoistTowelette]

Not this forum's cup o' tea, but here is my foot tattoo done by Matt Jordan from New Zealand. This tattoo was done while filming for an upcoming episode of SullenTV's "Tattoo Collector"

I also got some more work on my back by Jess Yen at Ink n Iron but we didn't get pictures so I'll take some in a few days

His work is so fresh and clean. Really cool dude too, always a great experience at Spider Murphy's. Who's doing your next piece?

[Synesthesia]

Chad Koeplinger is doing a panther coming out of a rose for me, I gave him the go ahead to do whatever crazy stuff he might want to do in addition to that. I'm almost more excited just to see the drawing, the tattoo is secondary. :rolleyes:

[Cameron Jose]

I bet that will be killer. Can't go wrong with animal/lady heads/skulls coming out of roses. I have a tiger/rose mash up on my left bicep that I love

That is some tasty B&G work!
