Matt Shamah is guesting at kings avenue right now...

I'm in with Jondix and Jeff Gogue... Excited is a vast understatement.

prepare for an excellent first tattoo! :D

took a new pic, here's a few pictures from the past month... June 2 June 21 Today- July 7 Technically this past session shouldn't really start to fade until the 6 week mark so between that and what it should fade from one more session I should be good to go. So glad I went through with this and I'll be happier once the new tattoo gets started :D

Lindsey rules man, such a cool dude... were you guys listening to hair metal?

how about we let this thread die?

I second that notion :D

Maxime Buchi will be in LA at the end of the month, he has a similar style. I know Thomas is one of his biggest influences though he doesn't totally copy Thomas' style. Maxime is also covered in tattoos from Thomas. M - - - Updated - - - I'll add that probably the best place to get tattooed by Thomas is at a convention... that's how I did it...

I really don't give a shit.

I'm going to add a couple to this list.... Alexander Grim and William Yoneyama (who I believe has tattooed @WeRnDoG )

found it :)

welcome! I saw an insane scar coverup the other day, let me try to find and post it....

HELL YEAH!! Congrats!!!So stoked for you!!!!!

Maxime is going to be tattooing in LA at the end of the month, if I can convince the wife I"m going to try to have him do one of my palms... here's one that he did...

For all you Chris Conn fans, compliments of Lindsey Carmichael... this is original flash painted by Chris in '96 and yes, Lindsey gave me permission to post it :D

Super fun day yesterday, my friend and I went down to Gold Rush to get tattooed by Tim Hendricks... I went first and joined the spider/web club with some filler in my armpit My buddy was going to get a rose and one of Tim's Cholo girl heads but only had time to do the rose, he'll go back sometime soon to get the girl... Drawing it on.. Unfortunately I didn't get a pic of the finished rose but I doubt I need to convince anyone how great it looked. All in all it was an amazing day. Tim, Lindsey and the rest of the Gold Rush crew were great people to be around and the whole shop was on a super positive vibe. It was a great tattoo experience that I'll remember for a long time....

the thing about stickied threads is they get unnoticed at the top of the forum and no one seems to pay attention to them. At least in my forum experience...

all I've inventoried is the skin I have left to tattoo :D

last year there was a convention rate on hotel rooms, I think it was $119 per night and the hotel was pretty nice....

Thanks fellas, I'm pretty pumped on it :D

I stayed at the Convention hotel last year and plan to do the same this year. At night the Wife and I plan to head into the city for dinner. I think it's much more convenient and cost effective to just stay where the convention is held...

If I'm not mistaken I believe that Ivar has a battle royal on his front that doesn't match the other tattoos in that Instagram picture...

Here's the cobra that I got from Chris O'Donnell...

4 sessions down, (hopefully) one more to go! OUCH!

I'll apologize in advance... Tim is tattooing us :D
