I spent a few hours at Frith St on Friday as Valerie did some more work on my sleeve. It was a really good session and it was fascinating seeing the tattoo building up and some of the gaps being filled. I don't really want to put images up whilst Valerie is choosing to hold off from uploading custom work to the net - I will let her decide if she wants to post watermarked images when the sleeve is completed. However, I don't think she will mind me posting a small detail of a skull. She did this 'free-hand', no stencil or tracing or even an image - just some sharpie lines from memory and then she just tattooed it on. Unfuckingbelievable. By the way the attached image is about the same size of the actual tattoo itself - the detail is incredible.
I call him Pablo. He's my new amigo.

Here's some of my ink...

Not only are these guys all capable of pulling off damn near anything, but I just noticed that their names are all the same length.

I love this question on the application "Briefly describe your personality." I would just write the polar opposite of al fliction.

There are some things that, once said cannot be undone.
this is one of them:
I. Dare. You.

just got this guy.

And the award for Best First Post goes to @Nude Walter. Welcome and thanks for the pic! Dan's awesome, ain't he?

Thought this one was cool. I still think tiger head hand tattoos look great for some reason.

In our household... we like our Battle Royals with cheese and no whine, in one shot... Preferably in one sitting. I'll post a couple pics...
It was his kids first tattoo, one sitting, like 8 hours...

I just love the shows intro "10 of the best tattooers on the planet."
To be fair they didn't specify which planet. My money is on Uranus.

Oh Al Fliction... no.

lets be honest a monkey could of made those cuts. they definitely choose have the cast for the sole purpose of axing them. if you really put the worlds best ten artist on that show the judging would take weeks to figure out whos work was better. right now its a no brainer

I'm a liitle creeped out everytime Dave sez '' canvases''.........''It puts the lotion on.....''

The longer I look the better it gets....

had a couple hours with derek noble yesterday. couple hours left and its finalllly done.

Got a gypsy head on my foot done by Uncle Allan yesterday. The photo is also by Uncle Allan, grabbed it from his instagram.

I'll just go ahead and post the link, since I'm sure @Perez is happy to spread the magic. Didn't get to see Polito but what I did get was a little snake from a Lee Roy acetate from Andy Perez. Good times x10: Instagram
Also somehow made it through a brutal rib session with Ron "Angel Fingers" Wells, but not quite done yet, so you'll all have to wait for that one.

hehe, I do to ;) (cheers!!)

I love that Black with blue koi, its amazing!

My cover up went from this:

to this:

Because the original tattoo had a lot of black in it, and colours all over the place, I honestly had no idea if it would work out but figured I'd ask anyway. I am pretty farkin happy to say the least!!! (and yes that is Venom lol)

Haha, and then some! Good luck to everyone :cool:
As Kyle said last month
As they say - the proof is in the pudding... and it seems we got one great big glorious motherfucking pudding ;).

In a decade when I get my back piece, I'm going to tell my kids and grand kids that I was once a Yakuza member. I can't wait until I'm a crazy old man.

I work with a lot of native people. The last thing that they are worried about is what white folks are getting tattooed. This is not a joke post. It is the truth.
