Got this anchor and stars from Johanna at Timeless Tattoo in Oslo last Friday. Sorry for the sideway picture, not sure how to fix that..

Got this done yesterday by Leigh Harris, guest spotting at King Carlos Tattoo in Stockholm. I'm so happy with it! :)

I haven't been to any of these places myself, but I would love to go. The Angkor Wat temple in Siem Reap, Cambodia looks amazing. In general, I think there are many fantastic Buddhist temples in these countries that are worth visiting. When it comes to transport, I think railway services are limited in some parts, so you might have to go by bus. River boats on the Mekong river also looks like an option, though one should be careful with over-crowded boats.

Yeah, it's there until December 2014 :)

I'm not gonna say for sure, but I don't think it's a travelling collection unfortunately..

I went to an exhibition on sailor tattoos today, where they display old pictures and flash from the Maritime Museum's collection. Thought I'd share a few pictures with you here. The quality is not great on all of them, but hope you'll like it :) (I wasn't sure where to post this, so moderators feel free to move it elsewhere if needed).

I would love to buy one, hope this will be possible sometime in the near future :)

Don't know if this is the best place to post this, but have you guys seen the Confessions of a Tattoo Artist?

The story of Yue Fei is probably one of the few examples where tattoos in China has not been associated with criminal activity. I found this article which sheds some more light on the history of tattoos in China, if interested: Skin Deep - The art of tattooing in China - All about China | Radio86.com

@ Lochlan: This is interesting. Do you know if other tattoos were allowed earlier? Like non-visible tattoos on arms etc. I always thought they had a complete ban on tattoos in the Chinese army and police force. When I was in China, it was really rare to see people with tattoos in general.

Well, that was freakin awesome! This just keeps getting better and better!

Great episode as usual, interesting to see Henning Jørgensen as well!

Many of you might know this tattoo studio, and it was some LSTers who recommended it to me.. I simply must get my next tattoo at this place, their work is just incredible! .:: King Carlos Tattoo ::.

Welcome! Where in Wales are you from?

Just ordered a copy of the latest issue, can't wait! :)
