perfect, @Gingerninja!

Thanks, @SStu !! I'm so in love. Another amazing experience at KA. Grez also did a little mini-eagle on my wrist. Overall, a winning weekend. :)

Happy Halloween! This is older but it fits the day!

finally got the nerve to go onto the chest and decided on Walter McDonald at the Bay Area Convention. flipping thru his books of designs took FOREVER!.. the dude puts out so much work, Adam Shrewsbury called him maniacal.  i fell in love with two different designs that fit the center and chest panel well. The center eye was actually dice in Walt's original design, but i asked him to change it up and he gladly did. he's a great dude with a glowing personality! now i just have to find something to fill that empty space to the right and perhaps the collarbone... although i'm not looking forward to the pain that would bring me. even just the tips of that glow were felt in my teeth. strange sensation, but damn stoked on the result!

Tattoo #49 in the Colouring Book by one of my fave dudes Shawn Hedley at Champion Tattoo Edmonton, AB. This is now officially THE smallest tattoo in my bodysuit (it's about the size of a $0.25).

I was going to have my back worked on last night, but it was still tender from the shading of last week.

She knew I wanted an old demon head covered up on my bicep, so we went with that. Took like 3 hours with all the BSing back and forth, cutting a stencil from something already drawn up.

Not about a new tattoo, that happens tomorrow, but I'm visiting my daughters in Oakland and was walking around exploring the neighborhood and stumbled across Freddie Corbin's Tattoo 13. If I didn't already have an appointment at Black Heart I would have stopped in.

Shit. I'd have gone in just to gaze in wonder and have the remote possibility of shaking his hand and thanking him for all he's done for tattooing!!

[Boiled Dove]

Yeah, the place is small and it was packed. If there had been fewer people there I might have.

about 3 hours. That last half hour was misery.

Super inspiring stuff here @Gingerninja @Hands On @bongsau @Colored Guy and @Boiled Dove - giving me the itch!  Now that winter weather is settling in up here it'll be much more comfortable to get tattooed, too...

I have one more to go in 2017 then I am moving into semi-retirement for 2018. Way, way too much happening in my life to be able to plan anything (or afford it) in 2018. I'll be living vicariously through everyone else's work. @el twe

@Hands On Damn, those are insanely cool! Great picks!

[Gingerninja]

@bongsau I dig the super fly.

Went to Smith Street about two months ago and had the opportunity to grab this NYC rat from Bert. It's above my ankle. Pretty thrilled.

[Gingerninja]

Thanks @pidjones and @GlaryMilberg! 

GlaryMilberg - I saw your rat on Bert's page. It's killer!

[el twe]

Damn, panther rat rules.
