  1. [MENTION=5780]Fala[/MENTION] I'll help out, I'll pm you my email.
  2. I've never heard of Mark before, but his stuff looks just as solid as the rest. Don't let that stop you from updating us on your progress. You have my curiosity! If Graeme says it looks good, then it must be good.
  3. That's awesome @ironchef. I bet you're excited to see it done at least from one perspective.
  4. Of course, they don't give credit to the artist. But that's a really weird thing to auction off.
  5. I would second Smith Street. I didn't actually get tattooed by the guys there, but they are good and atmosphere is great.
  6. The thickest of the thick. Koji Ichimaru

    Ha yes! If you ever want to 1 man row a canoe, you have to get in it backwards. So much easier to steer. Canoe tip of the day. - - - Updated - - - @haervaerk Sweet stache!
  8. I find all the other Myo-o to be very underrated, that's why I took a stab at Kongo-Yasha. I've only ever seen a Gundari Myo-o back piece. Everything else is Fudo.
  9. Got Monmon Cats in the mail today. An excellent little book to go over with the cat loving wife. Unfortunately it wasn't signed because @hogg is a real Christmas grinch, but I guess he is still kind of cool.
  10. Yes it was with dry healing and lotion. I normally re-wrap for the night after the tattoo, I guess I'll wrap the following 2 nights as well and make sure the area stays soft. I never really got in to aquaphor. I just use Neosporin combined with hand lotion. Thanks for the input. Hopefully it works for me.
  11. Does any one deal with scabbing on a regular basis? After every appointment with Dana I suffer from it and lose ink density in the worst spots. My windbars are patchy at the darkest parts and he'll have to touch up almost every one.

    Here's a good one of me before the epic back piece progress. Nothing better than canoeing and camping. Bonus points to anyone who can point out why the canoe looks "off". You guys look like a good crowd.
  13. Damn @a1steaks you got your back and front killed recently.
  14. Cheeks have healed pretty well so far (I'm not fully covered yet), my problems have been the hamstrings with regards to sitting. Right about the spot where the edge of the chair/seat would be. I was told that those spots should be lotioned a little extra since they dry out quicker to prevent major scabs from forming. You might still get scabs but just do what you can.
  15. Awesome! Thanks a lot for the share.
  16. Funny you should ask. 2 sessions ago when I asked what he was thinking about colors he just said "Cool ones." And that was a solid answer. All I know is that Kongoyasha will be dark blue like he is supposed to be. We haven't decided on anything else yet. I'm leaning toward pinkish lotuses, and his yellow snakes look baddass. I'm 100% open to his suggestions though.
  17. Ugh for whatever reason, insert excuse here, this was the most painful session I've had so far. I was the only one all day and all I could muster was ~5 hours. That being said, I am crazy stoked about the progress. Finished off one thigh's background and added some color!! Honestly, I think the color looks out of place just because I've been staring at black and grey so long, haha. Very excited for more progress. The next session will be to kill the background on the other thigh/lower back, then maybe hit some more fire. That's going to be a rough one if it's anything like today was. Dana has some pics on his Instagram, one of my ass, one of my back, but here is the full monty. And I just noticed that my ass has a hilariously straight shelf on the under cheek. That's weird looking, I can't take my eyes off it. Also I'd like to give a serious thank you to the fundoshi for providing some level of decorum so that Dana didn't have to stare at my hole as he destroyed my inner butt cheek. You may take note of the wind bar direction out of my ass. Dana referred to that as "The Wind of Doom". Good thing he has a sense of humor, even if he did lose his appetite.
