Upcoming Tattoos

[Graeme]

Just sorted out my appointment for the Quebec City convention and I'm going to be getting a golden eagle from Trevor McStay.  I'm stoked.

I'm getting tattooed by Ron Wells at his shop on Saturday.  Also stoked.

rejoining the fray - got a deposit in for an appointment with The Gus @ Olde City Tattoo in Philadelphia. Still need to set up the appt - really dig his stuff - just gonna go in and pick from some of his flash and have at it.

Nice traditional work - looking forward to seeing what you choose!

Gus is awesome. His flash has changed a lot over the years, and I think where he's at now really fits right in your wheelhouse. That shop is great. I have a million friends who have gotten tattooed there. Let me know when your appointment is and I'll try and swing by or we can grab some food/drinks. Tons of great places near there.

I really wanna check out Ron's shop.

@suburbanxcore roger that - yeah his stuff is really the type of tattooing that i like - looking forward to seeing the shop - they have some great tattooers there

[El Dolmago]

Getting the sleeve shaded and scales added (perhaps colour too) next week - hopefully my spring sleeve project will be wrapping up before summer hits! 

[LizBee]

Adding more folk art to left upper arm/shoulder next week. Tried to get it done earlier in the season but my girl Katy Davis stays booked. Usually we'd be full bore into hot weather by this late into May but for some reason we're still having cool weather. Kinda freaky but I'm not complaining!

[TattooedMumma]

have now seen the drawing and I have to say I am pretty stoked! Been chatting to Michael and I am booked in for next Saturday (28th) at 10am. Woop!
I would share a pic of the drawing but I will just wait until it is done and share a pic in the gallery then. It is a heart with 3 daggers stabbing it , an eye in the middle.  so fitting. am a bit in love I must admit.

Hey! The Best Western on the LES is very close to Invisible and very reasonably priced. @Hands On

You know, as I said in the knee thread, it's surprisingly fine. I expected it to be way more painful and way more swollen. I ran 8 miles the next day! Haha. I won't post any pictures until it's colored and healed, but as is usual with Grez, it rules and I love it. Haha. #fanboy

I'm a Grez #fangirl and proud of it! Looking forward to seeing the finished work. Oh, and nicely done on the 8 miles. :)

Yeah, he's killer. I can't wait until it's done. Not until July, which feels like a fucking eternity to finish. Once it's done I think I'm immediately going to book to have him do my other knee in the fall.

There is usually decent street parking, particularly a few blocks north, just kinda above Market. But if you're patient you should be able to find something within a few blocks, particularly during the day (lots of bars so it's hectic as fuck at night). If not there are lots and garages around.

As for food, here are a few of my favorites in the area. Tons of good spots, though.
- Right next door, The Khyber does good Southern style type fare. I don't drink, but I believe their beer and booze selection is solid as well.
- Eulogy is a Belgian beer bar nearby that does awesome mussels/frites, burgers, etc. They have like 300+ beers available as well.
- Amada is fancier but has dope tapas.
- Han Dynasty is killlller Szechuan right around the corner.

@suburbanxcore thanks for the scoop

i agree on the knee  - once you get one done you gotta get the other

mine was the most difficult heal of all the tattoos i have gotten

[suburbanxcore]

So far the heal has been great, actually. It was only outline and shading (and Grez is very light-handed), so it wasn't blasted too badly. It's actually sped up my interest in getting the second one done.

[Marwin3000]

Going to Tokyo in a couple of weeks!

And I booked an appointement with Bunshin Horitoshi. Really look forward to getting some tebori.

How's your collection been comin along? Without you instagram for a minute I was missing pictures of delicious food and your tat-progress!

Yeah, I came crawling back to the Instagram because of 1) good friends of mine asking me nicely to come back and 2) boredom at the Long Beach Airport because TSA is a breeze and I miscalculated my timing.

I told myself "no more tattoos for awhile" and obviously that didn't work out. But I'm going to make another attempt at a sabbatical after June. We'll see how that goes.

Just finished this yesterday. And thankfully no one was around to watch me die except Jason.

[suburbanxcore]

@CABSWell, I'm glad you're back.

Just got a call that my appointment for tomorrow has to be canceled. UGH. Been waiting for months, but I can wait some more - patience......

Boooooo. I hate when that happens. I am going in tonight ... unless my artist Josh calls me in the next 1.5 hours.

I'm going to try to head in to a local shop's anniversary party on June 11th. It's all flash drawn specifically for that event so I'm going to go check it out and see if anything catches my eye. It benefits a local animal charity, so I'm telling myself it's my duty to get a new tattoo just a couple weeks after finishing another.

I went to one of those last year and had a great time! I was talking to the guys a week later and they said they put on 50+ tattoos that day! Missed it this year but it was fun.
