Not sure who would want to read it but thanks for the encouragement! Still got a few more tattoos to get though ;) Gingerninja, Dan, zetroc and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/12-latest-tattoo-lowdown/?page=398#findComment-138894 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerninja Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 @bongsau YES. It's incredibly vital that your tattoo history not be lost, if you want to share it. Our tattoo's are living history...emphasis on "living". When you go, they go (generally). Your story is part of the folklore of tattooing.

I've been tattooed by 20 guys over 240hrs now, mostly in Edmonton so I guess there is some local history to that. i've been keeping data/records of everything which I'm thankful I thought of doing early on. now to start my book...haha cheers.

Gingerninja Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Thanks @jac1961 and @bongsau! It wasn't planned, at all. I was checking out the shop when he walked in, then he asked me if I was getting tattooed. I was like "no" but paused and asked if he had time. He asked what I wanted, I showed him a reference photo and within 30 minutes I was getting tattooed. He said that "toad/frog" was the magic word... I'm pretty stoked. pidjones, SStu, JAC1961 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/12-latest-tattoo-lowdown/?page=398#findComment-138910 Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplelace Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Got this done on 17th April. It is Cydaea, the Maiden of Lust from Diablo tattooed on my left knee. Tattooed by Tommygunn in Belfast City Skinworks in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I pretty much slept through it all. Fresh pic, taken by tattooist.

rdinak Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Getting started on a fun piece before my back project. Artist changed the classic photo to match the color of my dog. So this is tattoo number five and I am still learning. Yes your biceps are free. Back is not too bad. Thigh is a little more sensitive until you start rounding the corners. Got the line work this session. Going to be a fun summer suburbanxcore, SStu, JAC1961 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/12-latest-tattoo-lowdown/?page=398#findComment-139136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfj99 Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 My ocelot was finished this afternoon. I absolutely love it! It's the last animal on my left arm sleeve. Al that remains now is some leaves and vines to connect the animals.
