Full Back Piece Thread

@ironchef wow!

Here is the latest on my backpiece from @stewartrobson

Did 5 hours on Saturday and 4 hours on Sunday. Actually tapped out on Sunday, it was a long week of good eating and drinking and it caught up to me. It's 47 hours of total work so far and it will hopefully be completed in October. Pic is from Stewart's IG.

I saw this on his IG and now I know. It's you!

@Reyeslv and @ironchef - Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... thats all I have to say at this point in time as I can no longer string together a coherent sentence after witnessing the awesomeness of your backs. 3 Months and counting to start mine.

Made my way through this whole thread, and now I'm starting to reconsider future tattoo placements so I can get a real back piece. Thanks a lot, LST! Also, does anyone have any more pictures of Bert Grimm Sundance tattoos? I know there was this one done by Nick Colella a few dozen pages back but I couldn't seem to find much else on the internet (especially not a full back). It's such a classic!

Valerie Vargas has done an amazing one. It's on her website. I think Bert Krak too, but I couldn't find the image right away.

[real meta]

It's unfinished, but I thought this one by Marina Inoue was pretty unbelievable.

One of my favorite designs for sure.

[el twe]

Damn, thanks for those! That Marina piece is gorgeous.

edit: just saw the one Valerie did on her website, probably goes without saying that it's just fantastic but I'll say it anyway. She asks not to re-blog from there, so you'll have to go dig for it yourselves. (It's easy to find...)

7th session. 7 hours of snake scales

[CultExciter]

@WeRnDoG Absolutely fucking nuts man.

[Joe Stratford]

This thread is making me need a backpiece, i need to finish my goddamn arm first! Stop posting pictures!!! :p

[hogg]

@WeRnDoG Your back is killing everything!

[Duffa]

@WeRnDoG Your back is killing everything!

And the progress being made is ridiculous! 7 hour sessions, man I only hope I can come close to that when I start. @WeRnDoG what's your secret besides obviously being one tough mudda? (if there is a secret lol)

[WeRnDoG]

@CultExciter @hogg @Duffa Thanks mates appreciate it. I must say full credit must go to Dean for how it is turning out, im just the fortunate recipient of this back piece. @Duffa No real secrets mate just a desire to get it done and get it done quick. I get asked fairly often if I am use to the pain and usually say the pain is the same I can just deal with it better. Some parts of the back are nothing more than a tickle and others like wasp stings... 3 more sessions and I should be done so looking forward to that!! Sorry for the shitty quality pictures too they are atrocious, the lighting in my house needs to be addressed.

[MGblues]

@WeRnDoG That is turning out absolutely insane!!! You get to keep it for life too!!!

[Hogrider]

First session with Jessie Tseronis from Sakura Tattoos in Winchester, VA. We were going to do a Kapala Skull but when I showed up he suggested this. I'm a "go with the flow" guy and I'm glad I did.

[Dennis]

Saw it on his Facebook yesterday, looks awesome!

[WGDRMZwylie]

[WeRnDoG]

@MGblues thanks mate.
