Upcoming Tattoos

Been in contact w/Dave Koenig of Tenth Sanctum Tattoo in Omaha about getting some work done on my arm/shoulder in April. He wants to look at the arm band first, so we're hoping to make a quick trip next weekend so he can check it out and see what we can do, and JD will be talking to another artist in the shop about getting something as well. Fingers crossed the armband isn't going to be a pain in the rear to fix/cover!

Waiting sucks. Ha!

I'm waiting for an August appointment. Anyone else have a long stretch ahead of them?

I've been on Hooper's "out-of-town" list since Nov/12. Last time I talked with the shop manager he said that Thomas would be planning out his summer in late April or early May and to call back then. And that's just for the consult!

Actually if I just ended up waiting 2 years for him I'd consider myself pretty lucky.

February 2015 appointment. Waiting since June 2013.

You win! Haha!

I'm on Rubendalls priority booking list for sometime in 2016. Got a long wait ahead of me.

You also win.

Got a consultation with El Monga Monday at Tattoo City.

Go back the next Monday to get the work done.

STOKED.

Not sure how it's going to play out exactly yet...I plan on tossing out the following and seeing what sticks:

SKULL

CANDLE

WINGS

LIGHTENING BOLTS

Incidentally, I love this approach. I have been pretty super anal/picky about my first few tattoos, and only just started to relax with the latest one (my 5th - a walk-in with no prior planning at all! ::gasp:: ). But I think I'm starting to like the idea of just picking an artist whose work you really dig, giving them some elements you want incorporated, and then letting the artist do his or her thing. That's what I'm doing with Dennis at Providence Tattoo in August.

Please excuse me, I'm feeling all zen and stuff right now, haha. Carry on, people!

@keepcalm I just stopped in the Atwells location of Providence Tattoo when I was in town a couple of days ago and that shop is so ridiculously nice looking. I want to get tattooed at that shop just so I can spend some time there.

Haha, yes! Very cool. That's the location where I had my consult, and where I believe Dennis will be tattooing me. Really looking forward to it! Providence is a neat little town, too -- I'd never been before.

Gah, heard back from the artist, he opens his book for March/April/May on March 1st. He said when he opened the book for the past three months it filled in 1.5 days. JD's only going to get a couple hours sleep before he has to get up so we can run down there and book asap. But I sent him a couple pics of my armband and he's confident he can cover it, so yay!

Haven't posted in quite some time but i've just booked an(other) appointment with Frank Carter on monday to fill in some space i have on my right forearm. Probably gonna be something knifey, which makes me happy. Bonus happy points because monday is my 30th birthday, i've always thought the best presents are the ones you buy yourself!

Absolutely mate, although am i right in thinking Valerie (and Stewart) doesn't work in the 'main' shop anymore? It's probably been 8 or 9 months since i was last there but i thought they were working out of a room above the shop.

In any case, definitely say hello if you're around, always good to meet someone from LST. My appointment is at 3.

P.S. You're a lucky one getting work by Valerie, one day i'll get there!
