Latest tattoo lowdown.....

[jitterbug]

Just had my Medusa done by Stu Pagdin at Progression Tattoo Adelaide. Unfortunately we ran out of time to finish the rest of the coloring but I'm pretty stoked with it!

Will be finished on the 28th.

Great one! Starting off right!

[Pugilist]

@exume - now that's how it's done!

ETA - omg my husband and I just posted the same thing at the same time. Embarrassing!

Just got this googly-eyed little weirdo last night from John Raftery at Fun City.

I'm calling him "Elwood."

Pretty happy with it.

You might just end up being the elusive "guy who has no shitty tattoos".

Ack! You got that? I spent a lot of time ogling it on IG last night. A lot of people are doing traditional dragon heads these days, but this one really stands out. I stared at that green for the longest. One of my favorites.

And @exume, you sure did get a first tattoo. Keep it up and we'll all hate you (in the best possible way).

The boyfriend and I took a vacation to Florida for a week. At the end of the week we made the drive up to Jacksonville and both got tattoos from Jesse Gordon at Inksmith and Rogers. I got a vampire lady and he got a vulture.

Great tattoos. The vampire lady is perfect.

Thanks! Jesse is a great tattooer.

[exume]

Thanks everybody, I'm so stoked! I seriously can't stop staring at it.

Glennie from The Pearl finished off my left forearm yesterday with a little sparrow, a wee anchor, and a field of dots and stars. I am very pleased with the results.

Thanks! It was his first dagger through the neck. Oddly enough he's never gotten that request.

Dagger through neck eagle/snake on chest = badass. Love it......

Not sure if this is even kosher but I just saw this on Reddit and had to share here. Dude got the same tattoo that his grandpa got in Pearl Harbor in '42. New one is by Daryl Rodriguez from Hold it Down in Virginia.

[CultExciter]

Daryl's tattoos are killing it. That whole shop is rad these days. I need to get my act together and get tattoos from Josh Stephens and Mike Adams.

I finally got my ship + lion on Friday. I put this picture in my post about the design, but I will put it here too because it will probably be my last opportunity to contribute to this thread for a little while. I totally love these, but I am going to give myself some time to get used to having such plainly visible tattoos (compared to my other, well-hidden ones) before I start thinking about getting anything else. This was a big step for me, haha!

Scott M (I can never remember how to spell his last name) at Tattoo Paradise in DC did these for me. He is great, and he did my elephant, too, so I was very sad when he told me he was moving to FL.
