You pretty much summed up my thoughts at the moment! Such a great experience, amazing tattoo, amazing artist in every way! I really struggle to find words for how happy I am at the moment...

plus we listened to Queen for the entire session :)

You've got yourself a good one there. Really happy for you. I'm always a little nervous about portraits. I can think of maybe one guy I'd let do a portrait on me, and I will get one from him one of these days — Chris Jones from Physical Graffiti in Cardiff. He's going to do a Johnny Cash portrait tattoo on me. I've talked to him about it after we became friends on Facebook. Anyway, WOO HOO! Over the moon for you!

I was, too. I very rarely like portrait tattoos. So very happy I took the gamble after seeing his other work (he does not have much past work in a similar style) & talking to him about it on FB to start with. I guess it was his enthusiasm about the idea that convinced me initially, and he really did deliver more than I had dared to hope!

My right bicep is healing nicely. We'll have a few places to touch up, but I'm ready to do the next part! June 30 seems too far away.

I got this little one shot eagle yesterday at the Quebec City convention from Trevor McStay.

It wraps a lot because it takes up most of my thigh so here are a couple of pictures.

[Rob I]

Love that tattoo! @Graeme  the detail of the branches and leaves, not to mention the bird itself, is amazing. 

[Mark Bee]

Looks great, @Graeme

[oboogie]

Very nice, @Graeme! Love that.

[Graeme]

@Rob I @Mark Bee @oboogie Thanks!  It's such a beautiful tattoo.  I'm taken aback by how beautiful it is.

[marley mission]

@Graeme yeah dude

[polliwog]

Man. Having major thigh-eagle jealousy.  I can't imagine how great that must look in person.

[Devious6]

That is one beautiful eagle @Graeme! I love the detail.  I, too, am having major jealousy - my next is definitely going to be an eagle!

I'll show you next time I see you.  He put so much nice detail into it in the patterns and textures in the wings, in the branches.     I'm going to have to stop wearing pants just so I can look at it all the time.

@Devious6 You can never go wrong with an eagle.

[kitti]

Thats gorgeous @Graeme the texture of the feathers is so nice.

It's a great blend of east and west.

Det ble bra det Joakim. Håper du hadde et bra opphold i Oslo. :)

Great result Joakim, I hope you enjoyed your stay in Oslo.

I picked up this little heart and dagger at a local shop's flash event. Didn't realize until I got home that the top of the handle is jacked up.  I think it'll be an easy fix so I'll just swing by one afternoon after it's healed and ask him to fix up the diamond-y part. Don't really blame the guy considering how insanely busy the shop was that day. Other than the handle, I love it, and it helps fill in an annoying gap nicely.

EDIT: Silly me, I forgot to give credit. Atom Lenhart at Golden Ages in Lancaster, PA did this. I've been tattooed by two guys in that shop now and will probably get a second from Atom (I have an idea he would be awesome at) and will probably get stuff from the other two guys too.

I popped into a shop on a whim a couple of weeks ago and got a ghost tattoo. It looks like a cross between an onion and a squid.

My wife says it looks like a ghost.
