Upcoming Tattoos

[Graeme]

I had a talk at the shop today and we decided on doing the Kitsune (top right) :-)

That's going to be so good. I love samurai/warrior tattoos and the interplay of all the patterns in the tattoo. You must be super stoked!

[Dbeatdano]

Yeah I love samurai as well. @DevilMan That's an awesome design too. I'm jealous man. I'm looking forward to seeing the progress on that beast! Who's got the pleasure doing that on you may I ask?

I've got thursday next week booked to start on my backpiece, to get rid of that white 'spot' between my two sleeves ;-)

But.... I'm having a hard time deciding on what (kuniyoshi) warrior design to go with, I know you can't really go wrong with a Kuniyoshi design, but thats what making it hard to decide, they are all sooo good ;-)

I'm kinda leaning towards one of the top pictures, but maybe I should just go with a big ass full back tiger and be done with it :cool:

I don't knowwwwwwww..

The top-right one is amazing! and eventually, all the japan-inspired-samurai-art is a great direction!

I am man! :) I'm dying to see what he will come's up with design wise. It is going to be a full back piece going down onto my upper legs so we've got a long way to go :)

My back will be done by Bonel (Instagram) of Corazon Santo in The Netherlands, he also did both my sleeves.

Superb tattooing. Very Very impressive.

My wife just texted me from her appointment with Martin Lacasse: "Snake sort of spitting out a sweet ghost-geisha with flowers and fire. Crazy."

I'm so jealous and can't wait to see it this outline.

[Fala]

I can officially add "appointment with Horitomo" in my upcoming tattoos list! Scheduled for end of April/beginning of May. Very excited!

So much for my "I'm done until I have enough money for my back" and "have to let husband get tattoos too" statements!

[Perspectivez]

I'm getting tattooed by Chad Kopelinger this month. Super stoked.

I'm still not 100% sure what I want from him; there's so many things that he does well, it's a tough choice.

Set up my appointment for feb 22 with Karl Williams @ Dubuque tattoo club for a traditional eagle and rose tattoo. Really excited!

Bonus when I went in he had my last tattoo in his portfolio.

Looking at Ron Wells's work from the Philadelphia convention and feeling ridiculously excited about seeing him...

That wolf he posted is mine, and the rose is on an old college friend I hadn't seen in about seven years.

going up to see Grime in mid April, by then it'll have been around 6 months since the last session :(

Heading down to the Bay Area a at the end of the month for some continued work on my back piece! Only actually we're working on my leg this time :p. I think another peony and some rocks to go with the karajishi on my thigh. I have two days booked, so we should get some solid work done :p.

Junii is collaborating with 'Horitsukikage' (Shad) on the snake and hannya that will be going on my back, but as he is based in Belgium we prob won't start that til June or later.

[smiling.politely]

Booking my dad in for a neck tattoo with Freddy Negrete in San Angelo, hopefully. All of his Charlie Cartwright work is from about 30 years ago, so it'll be a good continuation of that.

He also doesn't know that we're getting him booked yet, although I think he suspects I'm up to something.

[Tatspiration]

Going to get one on my shoulder this coming weekend in Oceanside. Super excited. Only my third tattoo, so kinda nervous.

[CABS]

Put a deposit down for a few hours with Juan Puente. I have no idea what I'm going to get.

Horitsukikage/Junii snake and Hannya combo collaboration? Ooooo, that's going to be nice. On your way down to California, are you traveling even more southerly to LA, for the Perseverance show too?

Haha, @Lance, when I read that I was like "yeah, but the Perseverance show isn't until March 2014!"....I cannot believe it is actually (almost) March 2014, holy balls. I very much want to go to this, but have no actual plans to get down there. Booo! Are you going to the opening? I intend to get down to see it while it is still up, for sure. (Til October, right? Scrambling for references after I hit 'send' on this).

I will be so jealous of all you LSTers who make it to the opening!

Uh oh, you better make plans sooner than October or extend your tattoo vacation. I just saw on FB that it runs from March 8th to September 14th.

I plan on going on the 7th. I believe the Museum is hosting an opening preview reception for Museum Members. I was photographed earlier to potentially be included in it so I received an invite too. Depending on what happens at the reception, I may go again the opening day too. I really want to listen to all the Speakers the opening day. Taki, Jill Bonney, Chris Brand, Junii, etc.

I have a question! I have a large nightmare before Christmas tattoo on the right side if my chest, I want to get a colorful cupcake piece on my left side but more toward my shoulder.. Do you think the new piece will take away from the nightmare before Christmas piece? Thanks for any input! I have 5 tattoos now but they are pretty well spaces apart!

Since I'm snowed in today, I went ahead and made another appointment in a couple weeks with Jason Reeder for my nocturnal/crepuscular animal leg sleeve thing. :rolleyes: Going to be coloring in my hare and maybe some filler shading.

[exume]

Drove down to Denver today for a consult with Mr. Andy Canino, hopefully the next couple weeks go by quick.

[Mark Bee]

I've got the day off tomorrow, so I think I'll head into the shop and get a couple of quickies done. I'm thinking some Higgs flash.

[TheLance]
