Squidpants/Leg Mania; or, where we're at with our leg tattoos.

[gougetheeyes]

Blaming @Graeme for this one since he posted his hairy man legs on instagram. I'm sure those famous legs Stuart at Spider Murphy's has filled up has given everyone the itch to do the same.. Or seeing Henning's work on those meaty thighs of @ironchef if you're going the Japanese route. But I'll tell ya, I'm real happy with how my short little legs are coming together and thought I'd get the ball rolling by saying fuck it and posting my hairy dude legs. Kinda weird, I know. Maybe I'll get weirded out and edit out the photo... Maybe (definitely) @MrsGougeTheEyes will yell at me and roll her eyes forever.

But fuck it, here's a shot of the front of mine. In the kitchen. Visible tattoos by Andy Perez (@Perez), Todd Noble, Oliver Peck, Nash Hogan, Jake Fraser, Scott Sylvia (@ I forget your LST name brother), Bailey Robinson, Sophie C'est LaVie.. There are some on the back and some on the sides that are tough to see but this will suffice for now.

@slayer9019 I know you're squidding it up slowly but surely and @else I just went back and read your intro thread. Totally totally awesome, especially with how everything's gone. (It's here for anyone who wants to take a gander.. http://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/initiation/3283-changing-way-i-see-myself.html)

Now let's see those legs!! (So I don't feel so weird..)

[9Years]

In the spirit of "fuck-it" I present my left leg. @gougetheeyes now we can feel weird together.

Snake/torch by El Monga last summer at spider Murphy's

Candle/Skull by El Monga March of this year at tattoo city

Cattle Head by Stefan Johnsson Jan of last year at California electric

Planning a panther on the knee at some point but it'll have to wait a bit. The other leg has some odds n ends on the thigh, but not enough coverage for me to feel it can hang in this thread yet!

[Iwar]

YES! Awesome idea for a thread @gougetheeyes. Squidpants are looking great homie. I love all of those tattoos!

Same goes for yours @9Years. That's a good looking leg right there! (that's a sentence I don't utter too often, haha). Beautiful tattoos!!

[Graeme]

Credit should go where credit is due, this idea actually came from @BrianH

Anyway, here's my legs, or the start of them anyway.

You can't actually see most of what I have on them. The panther rose was done by Chad Koeplinger, the ship is by Ron Henry Wells, you can see a bit of a swallow done by Bert (I don't know his last name but he goes as "Bert Monster") who worked at Tattoomania in Montreal when I got that tattoo, but now works out of a private studio, I believe. You can also see tiny bits of a rose and a snake done by Tony D'Annessa, and a tiger-faced hannya done by Danny at Tatouage Artistique. More towards the back of my right leg, and totally out of view is a piece of Doc Forbes flash done by Chris Hold who tattoos at Sacred Heart in Vancouver. Not everything on them goes together, but I like my legs because it's been a lot of fun getting those tattoos. I'm waiting to hear on some time off I requested from work to go to Barcelona, so hopefully I'll manage to add something else to my legs from El Monga or another one of those Aloha guys in July.

@9Years very nice! @Grame awesome and @BrianH d'oh! Credit goes to you, sir. @Iwar I know for a fact that you've got some killer leg tattys.

Also, I don't know how to take multiple pictures and stick 'em together.

I'm excited for when I have more leg tattoos to warrant posting pictures in this thread. Until then, keep on with the hairiness!

[suburbanxcore]

If my wife wasn't in bed watching last night's Game of Thrones, I'd have her snap some shots. Taking pics of your own calves is pretty tricky. Haha. Tomorrow I guess.

[MadeIndelible]

My pegs, tattoos by RHW (snake and rose), Cris Cleen (lady in the mirror), BHR (vulture head), Carolyn Le Bourgeois (snake, Niña Blanca), Scott Sylvia (candle burning at both ends), and Nick Colella (eagle and flag). No plans but to fill them up with rad tattoos.

[polliwog]

Are we going to see a bigger picture of that Nina Blanca anytime? :) Apologies if I've missed it elsewhere.

[slayer9019]

@gougetheeyes I will have to grab a camera to snag some pics. It is pretty damn hard to actually take a picture of your own legs

[else]

Hey guys!!

Long time no see, eh? ;)

I was just thinking about y'all, about how much I missed LST.

I've slowed way down the past few months but I'm still hard at work on the squidpants project.

It is *super* hard to get good pictures of one's own legs... the best I can do at this moment is link back to a picture I posted in the fall. You can't see all of them in it, and there are 2? (maybe 3?) more since then.

We've missed you!

Jeez, you guys know phone cameras have timers right? Prop that thing up and set the timer.

Do wha????????

better option than "Hello friend/stranger/significant other, do you mind taking some photos of me without pants on so I can share them with my internet pals?"

[SStu]

@else - still HOT!

@rozone Jesus, what a lineup.

Thanks, man!

I've had fun filling up my legs with a bunch of little bangers during my various travels. :)

That is a great collection.

[CultExciter]

I'm just saying y'all, between this and Instagram, we've got some nice gams.

Sorry, moving day glare.

A few are not pictured.

[Graeme]

@rozone Have you ever posted that Keith Stewart tattoo? I'd love to see it.
