  1. I had to sign up for Flickr to see it. Worth it.
  2. Looks great @peps1 I've been following him on Instagram for a while now. Tell him to take a damn straight up and down picture for the love of FSM.
  3. Mine healed very easily too @BrianH It goes without saying how good the other legs look in this thread so far.
  4. @semele How's the back progress coming along?
  5. Always grateful for an opportunity to show my Stell baku. For the OP, it took about 5 hours, pain wasn't too bad. I'd much rather do another thigh tattoo than another session on my back.
  6. @ironchef I know how you feel about those ribs. That area had me ready to quit forever. You and I seem to share a lot of the same soft spots. It's really a shame we have no option left but full body suits, hahaha.
  7. Did you know Horitomo did the tattoo work for the game Yakuza? Here is an old interview. The interview isn't groundbreaking, but as a nerd it's nice to see the 2 worlds mixing. Like A Dragon: Yakuza PS2 SEGA Tattoo Art from 1UP.com The tattoo:
  8. Great pics!! @ironchef Great cloud work, it's really tying it all together. Not jealous of your breakneck schedule. @Reyeslv Man that looks awesome. What's the plan for the thighs?
  9. Haha, every time someone says something like that around me, I join in and say something like "Yeah what a bunch of degenerates." Since I am fairly soft spoken about my tattoos at my job, and they are all concealable, there are a lot of people that don't know I have anything. - - - Updated - - - Someone was telling me they had a female acquaintance who had a snake tattooed up her leg. They were insistent that it was insinuating that it meant the acquaintance was a whore because she has "snakes aka penises" going up her leg. I wasn't even heard when I tried to say that snakes are incredibly popular imagery, and the front of the leg is a great spot. Then I mentioned the snake on my butt and then they clammed up, haha.
  10. @9Years It took me about a year of looking at all the varieties of backs to really decide what I wanted, but I definitely had a solid idea when I approached Dana. Unfortunately for him, I approached him way sooner than I was financially ready, and he was getting antsy to start, haha. I definitely never realized how rough of a dedication it would be. Probably the worst part is the healing. Maybe I'm a slow healer but I take about 2 weeks until I can get a normal night of sleep.
  11. Free is the way to be. Cheers to new beginnings.
  12. I didn't want to start going off topic in the "Latest Tattoo Lowndown", but seriously I love those thick lines. Koji Ichimaru does lines like that too and it looks damn fantastic. Already digging the potential theme of those robes too!
  13. @ironchef you can't hide that shit on your Instagram and let it pop up on that side bar and I barely miss it. It looks awesome but that really goes without saying.
  14. Ha I know how you feel. I started mine in May and I would hazard a guess that it's maybe halfway done.
  15. Awesome @Hogrider I love the detail on that horn.
  16. Speaking of which, where is that pic that you updated your avatar too?! I need to see that full size!
  17. Having much more work completed on my back now, I have sat for a large range of numbers. But no matter how long I sit, that last half hours makes me want to punch someone... and I am not a violent person.
  18. I had to give up my prowler. I moved in to a pretty quiet neighborhood, used it once, then felt guilty as hell for making so much noise. Good luck with that. I hope you get lucky and you have trainers that know what they are doing.
  19. http://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/tattoo-designs-books-flash/492-full-back-piece-thread.html Keep us updated on that progress! That's a rough schedule. Your arms and chest look fantastic.
  20. I was just going to cut my own. I read a little on it yesterday and all it is is a piece of fabric 10-14 inches wide and 3 yards long.
  21. I don't know a better way to describe it, haha. I think my future is going to be a full Japanese style body suit, so it would definitely be practical. Plus I can put it on and jump out of the bedroom and startle my friends after I get drunk at parties.
  22. Dana Helmuth wants me to get a fundoshi for my next back piece session since it's going to be more ass work. We'll see if a picture ends up in this thread....
