@MoistTowelette real question is did you mess around and got a triple double?

haha guys I felt like he was in a group of many good tattooers on west coast until I saw @hogg getting a tattoo from him and it was pure badass. He made my relatively short list(6) when time came to book a chest eagle. I will definitely try to book with him at some point. edit watched video and yeah cool stuff good vibe

@beez I highly recommend it. Steve and Toney were both real cool. I will also speak with Thomas If he is not busy. I had a tentative appt with him in 2011 or 2012 In austin( before he joined ROA.) He did a huge mural on his visit instead of tattoos.

Appt set with steve Bryne at ROA . Pretty excited

my favorites list is ( I have been tattooed by Valerie and stewart and would jump on a chance when it comes up) Valerie Vargas Stewart Robson Bradley tompkins Jimmie Tatts Jordan tear Oliver Mcintosh

For me its simple, tattoos are not a necessity. I do however derive personal fulfillment from being tattooed and sharing/discussing tattoos. I have always liked/had the desire to be tattooed. I share more personally when in a setting talking or getting tattooed substantially more than I do in other settings. On occassion my personal situations actually help others. Not long ago I was talking tattoos and the talk of loosing a loved one came up and I shared my losses and my outlook on them. He let me know some weeks later that what I said really helped him along. Tattooing is a positive thing for me, maybe some people feel better with a TAG watch and it helps them with self esteem or worth. For me I appreciate tattooing and art done by them and in a very small way I feel I help them continue their craft all the while allowing me to look way cooler than I am and actually interact with people in an unguarded way. For me that's more than a luxury .

I saw a 15 yr old zuck tiger and panther that looked sooo good. THe lucky dude said he didnt even use lotion or sunscreen. I was taken aback I always liked most of his stuff, but seeing some large pieces in person helped me appreciate what he does even more

I have one done will get other done. Mine was 3 yrs ago and I noticed nothing different in sweat or smell and I dont wear deodorant. Pain wise it was more vibration in my head because of laying with arm flat and angry when finished but not bad and quick heal if I remember correctly

mulling over a chest eagle, actually I am going to get a chest eagle just mulling over who I am going to ask to do it...

I am panthersandeagles i would love to see if your inclined

sounds cool would like to see this

just got back from turks and caicos I have a few pictures on my instagram panthersandeagles. I had a great time and on a bike ride met some cool belongers and actually bought a painting from a fellow named Alexis st John. Such a nice humble guy trying to provide for his family but also has dreams of teaching others

So awesome @cltattooing! You did a killer tattoo

@chrisnoluck awesome!

Money topic is understandably a factor in getting tattooed but its also the root of people making questionable decisions when deciding on who to do a tattoo. My personal take is tattooing is cool as fuck and I want to support people Who I feel are doing really cool shit that I get to see or have. I am paying for a service yes but I also view it as my tiny little part to allow them to continue to do awesomeness. I personally have never talked about prices or budgets before a tattoo.If the tattooer didnt mention money during scheduling I guestimate and have always left a tip and had a few bucks in my pocket. I see people all the time comparing hourly rates or by the piece prices but do not factor in time it will take or quality of the work put out by the different tattooers.

these last few pages have been balls to the wall badassness

its gnarly lol havnt used that word since like 88. I believe i saw it lurking the b9 tattoo thread.

talking about zuck last few pages I saw an awesome zuck backpiece in person at the oklahoma tattoo convention. If i remember right it was about 15 yrs old and was too cool.

awesome thank you for sharing @mmikaoj

I would go by tattooer not tattoo and let the guy/girl know what your thinking, ie: eagle is one of the tattoos you want and tattooer on top of your list may respond with " i have this eagle tattoo I have been wanting to do" easy peasy

my latest which I got on a sunday afternoon finished peeling on thursday but damn its been an itchy booger into today, sunday being 2 week point
