Okay...where's that chicken dinner?! Wonderful work, Else, really trip!!!

[Iwar]

@else Chad's coming to norway late March, and seeing that makes me even more excited about getting tattooed by him again. Really cool tattoo! Did you ask for that, or did you pick it out from his sketchbook?

@slayer9019 So good. I love that tattoo. What additions have been made to it?

Before the convention (over email) we had discussed doing something "hindu inspired" which I guess is what he's into these days. A few nights before the big day I had this dream that I was watching a documentary about "shamanic battles against evil" and Chad was interviewed in the documentary and was showing all these pictures of big cat tattoos and discussing how they were especially powerful against evil forces. So when I got there and we started talking about what to do I told him about my dream and he drew it up for me right there. :D

Well I got a drum and the dragon going in now from knee down.

My picture taking skills are not the best, add in the fact that its a coverup and he flew through the whole thing in a couple of hours makes me believe Ross is a serious talent.

Here is my shark based off flash by Matt Howse, Tattooed by Stevie Edge at Hunter and Fox in Sydney Australia.

Some more great tattoos this month, seems to get better and better every month.

Eilin, you've got nicer fillers than lots of people have tattoos!

You won't be disappointed. Lot's of great work happening here.

Actually, Mikael Harrstedt is guesting this week. So I'm giving Tony a break. :)

Tiger head in the left arm ditch. At least that's the plan.

[Iwar]

@MJH IV Of course! We talked about that a just few days ago, haha... I'm still a little hung over and my brain isn't working at full capacity today. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! ;)

Looking forward to seeing it though. Possible February contest contender?

[CultExciter]

I'll throw this one in.

Portrait of J.E.B. Stuart done by Josh Brown (James River Tattoo).

I should mention this was done in 45 minutes. I was just told to hang on.
