Second session today with my buddy Iain Mullen on his collaboration with Rudy Fritsch. Beyond happy with how this is progressing. We did the lines with two machines almost 2 months ago and I had gotten used to seeing it that way. Now with some of the black in I am amazed by seeing it come to new life again.

Super rad, @mmikaoj .

My first tebori by Horitoshi 1--just finished and still a bit bloody

[peterpoose]

Please try and not let me stunningly beautiful bum distract you from the artwork :)

10 hours in total, so quick quick this time and I am glad! Some of the arse is brutal, specially where the cheek meets the thigh.....

Victor said doing bums is awful, the skin is too soft and for him its not a very good place to tattoo but we are happy with the results.

We still have a largish gap for the centre of my bum but we will just fill that next year with just a few shaded bits and pieces. We also have the back of that thigh to do next year. Maybe add a devil horn to the devil hound.

My arse is red raw and swollen so sorry for the pics. :)

God damn! That is so awesome. I don't know if I've ever seen an oni like that one. How did you like the tebori sound and feel?

It almost is like an Oni Tomomori or Tomomorioni. Which should be a type of pasta.

This is such great work.

@hogg it was based on an image I brought in of a female ONI called "ibaraki doji." Although I agree "tomomorioni" would be a better name ;) @CultExciter

I preferred everything about tebori except for how long it takes. I loved the quietness and sometimes there was no pain--I heard the JIK JIK JIK but the only thing I felt was the hand stretching the skin. I nearly fell asleep once.

First session, the next one we are going to salvage the owl if possible. Kemer at Superfly Tattoo, Leon Mexico.

Thank you mate :)

Got some new small stuff from Matt (Dr. Claw) at Diamond Club. First knuckle piece and inside finger. Very small and simple. Its for my wife and my anniversary. Oh and inside the finger was rough apparently you have to break through the pad. And you definitely know when you break through. Having done a very small piece inside, puts my palm, tattoos on hold for a while. Gonna have to prepare for those

I got tattooed by Horimasa Tosui and thought the same thing. The Horitoshi style of tebori is really easy to deal with, but it IS slow.

Frikandel is soooo good.

Got this lil guy on my wrist a few weeks ago. This dragonfly was a memorial tattoo to remember my mother who passed away on July 3, 2014.

Made by Shawn O'Connor (Timber Tattoo, Nelson BC) while he was back in Edmonton visiting at his old shop (Ink Machine). I really love getting tattoo from Shawn. http://shawnoconnorca.blogspot.ca/. Check him out if you want to take a trip into the BC Kootenays. He really takes the time to optimize placement, which is especially important for me now that I am really filling up. Some of the brightest colours in my tattoos are from him.

Fits very nicely, the colours are healing very vibrant, especially the blues!

Next day after Victors pieces :)

Thigh piece, around 14 hours over 2 days and it was brutal, my leg is swollen double the size lol

15 hour drive tomorrow, yay!

[pidjones]

Powerful piece.

[Cork]

@peterpoose you are nuts. I can't believe how much you can tolerate. Butt and leg looks great.

That rules. Steve Byrne definitely tattooed his ass off all weekend. Almost everyone else I walked past had downtime at some point, but he was constantly busy.

He was the exact same way at the Richmond Convention last year.
