Palm/Lightning Bolt are 12years old, Turtle is 11, Shark is 7, Octopus is 6 ... :)
it's almost time to start thinking about filling in those open spots on the back of the calf. blast in solid bright-ass yellow in the bad brains bolt. maybe a mini-beach scene inside the palm tree. likely going to blast over the red-yellow rising sun. also thinking of getting the turtle redone (by the same tattooer Miles Kanne) in the next few years. I'm keeping the blue water, how Y2K-Canadian of me

this is my project for next season (winter) i'm going to tile in some background in and behind the frog...perhaps some overlapping matrix of black and red spider webs. I don't know about the other side (inner thigh), its my last major space for a big tattooo. Something with fire, crazy colours, the weirder the better.

sorry folks these photos are too big, don't know how to resize down, i've been having probs linking urls from the 'gram,
I've got a little choice spot above the skull. i actually think i might blast over the nonsensical skull. who knows what yet.

and here's the wraparound OllieXXX whale in better view:

I haven't updated this in a minute. These pictures aren't the best, but you get the idea. It's not easy to take pictures of your own legs.

Search "hardest artist to book" and "email correspondence" I think that will bring up some useful threads

There have been multiple threads about this already. You should search the site a bit more and you will find a wealth of information.

yep ! LOL I have several of those spontaneous ones for sure  ! 
@xcom as a matter of fact,there is a Friday the 13th this coming january,and finally I am going to get a "13" and a horseshoe on my lower right leg,my bday is the 13th of oct,so it's about time I got a 13 tattoo ! I don't have much room left on my legs so they will be smaller pieces.but it should be fun.

Agreed.
It was one of those spontaneous tattoos and didnt prep right. I think that was miy biggest mistake. I would of use saniderm my self but I just didnt plann this one :D
 

@BrickyOdin cool work you got going on there!
 
As for my self, I am going through a tough time with my knee. So far it has been my roughest healing. I am on day 8 and finally the knee feels some what normal.... There is a quite a bit of scabbing even though I did my best to avoid it (lots of good cleaning, etc...) Knee sucks... Worst than my foot for sure.
