cvportagee Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 how many sittings is that? I will have to check on my computer/calendar at home, but I am pretty sure that it was 14 sessions varying from 2-4 hours with one or two a little longer (5-6). I am no small guy and it has a lot of detail.

Lance Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Since my backpiece was posted on instagram I will re-post it here; although the background has not been started.Done by Jill Bonny at State of Grace. The pics were taken from instagram. I may post better pics when healed. (Birds are old tattoos) [ATTACH=CONFIG]9089[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]9090[/ATTACH] Well done! It looks fantastic! Nice little elements in there. Can't wait to see it when the background and sleeves are added :-) Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/456-full-back-piece-thread/?page=33#findComment-68103 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takeaway Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I'm a new poster here, and thought i'd say hi in this thread. My backpiece, finished a couple of months ago, by the amazing Stewart Robson of Frith Street tattoo. It was an absolute pleasure getting this piece, and getting to spend time with such a knowledgeable and insightful guy; an experience I was very lucky to have.

hogg Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 @Takeaway: Oh, YOU'RE that guy! Absolutely amazing tattoo. I really enjoyed watching the pics @Stewart Robson posted of the progress. The whole thing's great, but that background is particularly inspired. And welcome to LST.

Takeaway Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 @kylegrey - good spot! It is indeed, 'the Carving Bear', done in the manner of a printers stamp in white ink over the black wind bar. I think it's the second time he used it, the first time on an as yet unfinished Kintaro backpiece. tatB, ironchef and Graeme 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/456-full-back-piece-thread/?page=33#findComment-68182 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hospitelli Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 There are some outstanding back pieces in this thread and it's ridiculous. @ironchef I think you were at King Ave getting work done on your back while I was having my second session with Chris. I think it was on a Tuesday some time back in May if I'm not mistaken. I wanted to get a closer look at it but didn't want to bother you guys. As for back pieces go here is one that O'Donnell just did. Not sure if it's from anyone here but this thing is unreal.

You should have definitely stopped by and said hello and I would have loved to see your piece from O'Donnell up close. I'm off for the summer and start things up again in October with Mike. Will keep you posted if you want to drop by. I'm talking to Chris about a calf sleeve after my back piece is done.

jacobhh Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I saw this one last night on the Tattooland instagram. Chris Brand, 108 Heroes of Los Angeles. SO GOOD. Here are two more of these that I can find readily on the internet... I would maybe roll my eyes at these if they weren't executed so fucking flawlessly. Really amazing tattoos. Facebook links, I hope that works.
