New panther from Aaron Coleman, mostly healed.

Oops! My phone wasn't playing nice.

I got this one finished today. I was told that the green in the buoy will settle down in a day or so. The artist is Papa Joe in Boise, ID.

Got my shoulder capped by Aaron Coleman tonight. Really pleased with it, finally feels like my arm is coming along.

Color added. Robert Ryan, Electric Tattoo, Bradley Beach NJ

Just finished my second tattoo! Dutch Cooke, Immortal Ink in Clinton, NJ. I'm a beer brewer, and grew up fishing with my grandfather, so this is a little tribute to both. As for the octopus, why not?

Got this little guy from Dan Santoro, Bert Krak flash. Inside of the forearm 2-3 months healed.

Small arm filler I got a month or so ago from Jeremy Swed at Inksmith & Rogers...based off a Zeis flash piece.

New one from Koji Ichimaru whilst he was at NY adorned

Eli at Smith St just did this one on me

So nice! @Mark Bee Finished off my ribs with William Yoneyama, was a longer session than the first but so much harder, nearly tapped at one point but powered through. here's a snake preview, will post a full shot when it's healed.

Little Medusa Spider action on my very upper thigh, not a fun spot to get tattooed! He's going to add some webs behind her another time, the last thing I wanted after shading this thing was some thin liner work... - - - Updated - - - YES YES YES!!!

I also posted this in the backpiece thread, but i'm soo stoked i just had to put it in here too :-) Well, Since today I am an official member of the Back piece squad :) We had a (pretty brutal) 5+ hour start of my backpiece, we managed to finish all the lining (except for the big flower that need to go on my upper legs). Next session will be for lining the flowers and the rest of the leg part, and to start shading... I can't wait ;-)

My pig and rooster from my tattooers IG. Tried to stitch it together. Already told one person I just like wings and ham.. Told another I like corn flakes and bacon.. Hahaha next person, I'm going to tell I'm sponsored Kellogg's hahaha seriously though I love these.. Hope you guys enjoy

I have posted this in other spots here but I guess this is actually the correct spot. here is my newest tattoo. My tattoo before that was from the same artist, Rev J.R. out of Vicious Ink in Rochester Hills MI. I also got a tattoo at Vicious Ink from one of their apprentices Tim. All of my other work is older and not worth posting :)

Was done at Randy Englehard shop in Germany. 7-8 hours more progress now, artist Carlos Torres!

Got this subtle vag-rose from Olivia at Mom's Body Shop in SF today. Super fun! Loving the pink and black. The little 13 is cause this was the 13th tattoo of 2013 :P

Popped into The Pearl this morning to catch a session with Tim Pausinger before he left for the Xmas holidays. He basically finished my chest piece. In January we'll link the shoulders and arms to it. He is also going to do some spider webbing between the tattoo and the bottom of my pecs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Morning LST, after a long trip I made it home. As promised here is a pic of my finished (for now) back. Not the best pic but I'll see if I can get a better one ASAP. Completed over 5 sessions by Horinao at The Catclaw Tattoo-z Kyoto... I'm going to go pass out for a bit lol.

Saw this on FB today.. Kick ass piece and awesome to see it getting recognition!!

Knee hurts like fuck! 5 hours on this by Piotr Deadle :)

got this today from justin hyde my cousin got this one from him

Got something from Scott Sylvia yesterday. I'll post a picture in a few.

A better pic

From tonight.. I know the top of the hilt looks crooked but it's not, just a bad angle. I'll snap more pictures later.

Put this up the other day in the full back piece thread and forgot to put it over here. Last session in for 2013 and starting back up in January. All work being done by Rodrigo Melo at Northstar Tattoo NYC. Mike

DEEEEEENNNOOOOOOO at the Bay Area Convention of the Tattoo Arts Dude was so cool, I had such a great time. I also got to practice my spanish and many laughs were exchanged. I asked about some of his tattoos, he asked about some of mine, overall a lovely experience. Also, my forearm now somewhat resembles a balloon. Ha

Sorry for a few months delay (new here) but congrats and now can put a user to the arm. Mike

By Adrian Hing on my inner thigh. - - - Updated - - - We were gonna try and fit in a snake in a similar gap on the other leg but went for something I've wanted for a while instead, when the snake didn't want to fit:

Yep he's gonna add some stuff to the empty spaces in the top corners still too he just didn't decide if he wants to add a border or some clouds. He said he's hoping it knock it out in 2 more sessions. As long as she can sit for haha. - - - Updated - - - heres a photo of my whole arm now that it's filled in. going to take a break from getting my other arm tattooed now for a while. forgot to credit all the tattooers who made this what it is... thanks to lowercase j, timmy tatts, justin hyde, max kuhn, tyler densley, kim marks, ryan bailey, brandon montero, and landon lewis.

went and got my arm filled in today. here are a few pictures. heres my girlfriends back. took timmy about 45 minutes.

Got this one from Chad Koeplinger when he guested Royal Tattoo a couple of days ago. Such a great experience!

Hey guys! Relatively new here but a small update to my chest panels. All work being done by Rodrigo Melo at Northstar Tattoo NYC. Mike

Well it finally happened and I got tattooed by Stuart Cripwell today. Even though we had to rush like crazy and were still 30 minutes late to our appt. (which ended up making us miss the dinner tonight - sorry to everyone who went). I got this cowboy on the last big spot left on my arms. My girlfriend got this Sorry in advance if they are huge but I'm posting from my phone.

Today Bonel from Corazon Santo in The Netherlands which is also working on my second sleeve, finished the Phoenix backpiece on my wife. (The kanji was there already, it had been done a few years back by another artist)

I got this today from Chad Koeplinger at the Montreal convention. Ed Hardy-inspired hybrid rose right over the shin. I am super stoked on it and all of you should get tattooed by Chad not only because his tattoos are fucking amazing, but because he is a rad dude and getting tattooed by him is super fun.

Finished my sleeve with Mo Coppoletta. He did the upper part of the arm too, a koi, out of shot.

Haven't posted in a bit... Session number... 7 or 8, I think, from Mike Rubendall today. Finally hit the ass, which made my ribs seem like a breeze. About two months ago Thomas Hooper finished my torso: And then one from Scott Campbell about 3 weeks ago:

Very nice Inntrospect is it by Diego? - - - Updated - - - I had a session on my back at Frith Street today, while I was there Stewart managed to squeeze me in for a qucky, and I so glad he did, I love it

Finally done after 16 hours. Rodrigo Melo out of Northstar Tattoo in NYC.

After wading through the 433 pages of great art here i thought i'd include my own art too :) Currently my artist and I are working on my second sleeve (and chest piece), this sleeve is Tamatori-Hime themed. And a close-up of the chest piece: Next week we are going the continue with the background on the upper arm, and start on some coloring. This is a picture of my other sleeve that we did last year: And the chest piece: All the work is being done by Bonel of the Corazon Santo tattoostudio in The Netherlands.

Whoaaaaooohhh so many amazing tattoos being posted!! Love love love the white tiger and the dragon lamp. I don't know why great tattoos are so romantic, I swear I actually swoon when I see them. Very hard to follow up on these awesome pieces, but I just wanna post this one from yesterday. One session, 3 hours, lots of fun! Dunno what I'd do without such cool clients, they're always the ones with the crazy ideas, I'm just lucky enough to get to draw them :)

A couple of years old now. My little turtle family :) They were fresh at the time. I eventually want to get that calf filled in with something fun, but that's a ways down the road.

long time lurker, first time poster. My latest from Andrew Slater, All for One Tattoo in Richmond, VA.

Finished this up with Xam earlier, another one that's difficult to get a picture of yourself but you get the idea...

Spent a wonderful 8 hours at Memoir tonight w/Spencer Briggs. Getting tattooed is fun! This third picture only shows some of the new additions...

I put this in my newbie thread, but figured I'd post it here in case folks were interested. Dana Helmuth at Read St in Baltimore. update: smaller photo

Further work in progress, nearly finished, koi and Japanese maple leaves by Mo Coppoletta from The Family Business in London ...
