Latest tattoo lowdown.....

Here's a little party shark I got from Scott Sylvia recently. I meant to post healed pictures but it's a difficult area of my arm to photograph. Thanks for looking! starting the left sleeve next.

Made another Oslo trip last week to start a cover up on my lower stomach. While i was there i picked up a namakubi from Nicholas at Blue Arms.

The cover up is ongoing and i don't mind admitting i'm very apprehensive about the next session! This was not a fun tattoo to get although Marius did his best to keep my spirits up and a visit from LST's own Mr @Iwar definitely kept me distracted from the significant pain!

It was great seing you again Gareth! Although I have to admit I felt like a sadist at times too, haha. You're tougher than most!

 

[ItsNewport]

Hahaha thanks for capturing me at my best, @Iwar

Hopefully next time i see you it won't be quite so torturous for me!

nice shot, @Iwar !

@ItsNewport this is awesome. i go with the ol' hat over the face when it's bad enough to grimace.

@Iwar and @ItsNewport Your photo should be pinned at the top of the "do tattoos hurt" topic. (And your new work is so freaking cool.)

Sarah did a first pass at correcting the faked line on my forearm that another artist did and I hated. After 3 laser sessions (one a two-pass session), it was ready. She did the lining and some grey shading. Looks thousands of times better. She will add color in early March. This is going to settle nicely, I think - and I'm already real happy with it.

I'm not great with photos but here are a few progress pictures from this last month with Lehi.

Jeez, that arm is going to look awesome @Baboom

 

@ItsNewport So good! Does anyone know if Marius travels to the U.S.?

Unfortunately he doesn't travel much at all for tattooing. Would certainly make my life a little easier if he did!

Got the suggestion to 'work up' to the chest piece I'm getting (gnarling scarring I want to get covered) so I went back to Brittany at Hot Copper for something else I saw and fell in love with. Think I'm going to have to keep adding to the leg, carry on with the outdoors theme I seem to have got going on 

It's completely round irl, the angle I'm standing at just makes it look a bit thin at the bottom end in the pic.

Healed lady I got from Ivan Antonyshev while he was guesting in Leeds last month. Spotted this design on the Mainstay T-shirt and fell in love with it. So stoked to get a piece from him at last.

Got my somewhat spontaneous dragon tattoo today. Wes Garvick did it and I'm so stoked on it. His shop is literally the only one in town I'd ever go to, if you ever find yourself in York, PA. 

And what's that you guys always say about everyone needs a panther and dragon? Now I have both and they're friends. 

[ChrisvK]

Some great tattoos posted on this page!

Got this one yesterday from Jan Willem (@janwillemtattoo) at Bont en Blauw tattoo Rotterdam. Asked for a octopus filler and this is what he drew up. immediately said yes to his idea and this is the end result.

Edit: all other work except the partially visible black skull is done by Jan Willem as well

@Synesthesia Is that panther/rose from him too? Can you post a pic of that or DM me? Looks awesome. I've never heard of that shop, but I also don't spend much time in the York area.

[Synesthesia]

@suburbanxcore White Rose is pretty new, the guys at the shop said they just opened about 4 months ago. They specialize in traditional and there's SO MUCH good flash on the walls, I had a hard time deciding. http://instagram.com/whiterosetattooparlour

Wes didn't do the panther, that was done by Chad Koeplinger when he came through DC a couple years ago. Took him about an hour and a half to do. This is a better picture I took of it when it was freshly healed.

Got this tribute to my hometown (this gazebo sits prominently in the town square) from Dave Wah at the Austin Convention this weekend. 

[suburbanxcore]

Cool. I'll take a look at that IG when I get a chance tonight!

Some of Chad's stuff isn't always my style (shhhh, don't let anyone hear me say that too loudly), but that thing freaking rules.

Well, I finally took the plunge and got a forearm tattoo, and I'm glad I did!  Here's my Rock of Ages done by Brian Tiger at Screamin Ink Tattoo in N.J. I've gotta say, this is definitely my favorite tattoo.

P.S. I'm sorry if it looks crooked, it's almost impossible to get a good pic of my arm.
