  1. Welcome. Hell of a first piece to post. I'd love to see some of your other work!
  2. Not to sound dismissive at all, but with Steve Byrne and Valerie Vargas putting pieces on there, you can't really go wrong with whatever you decide!
  3. Part two was excellent, as expected. Nicely done @Stewart Robson. I bought it so I can watch it again and again. Haha. I need to do the same thing with part one. I only rented it before. Plus, I saw at least two LST posters in there, too! Well, their tattoos at least.
  4. I still need to pick up the DVD (I streamed part one originally, and it rules!). It looks like part two was posted on twitter today. It says "1 of 4" but then says part two. I'll probably check it out tomorrow. Copperhead Editions Films
  5. That's funny. Grez is actually doing my arm next January, and I originally thought about looking into him collaborating with Justin Weatherholtz. Ultimately I decided against it for a few reasons, but I think it could be a very cool idea. In the battle royale thread, there's a killer Rubendall/O'Donnell/Grez back piece.
  6. I already have one tattoo of my cats, but someday a Horitomo version will happen.
  7. Haha, like I said earlier, I totally intend to do it. I even have a sorta idea...
  8. Funny to see this thread bumped. Kings Avenue posted this on Instagram the other day. Instagram
  9. I'm pretty impressed they were able to get a tattoo that won't fade over time! Good for them. Seriously though, I love reading bad Yelp reviews of highly regarded tattoo shops. It truly shows how little people understand tattooing and how insane some people's expectations are. It's often a shame for the shops, though. As evidenced in this thread, and in countless reviews, people throw out shitty reviews for ridiculous reasons, and I'm sure it often costs shop owners money.
  10. @cookietruck pretty much agree on all points. To clarify slightly, I wasn't saying I cared whether or not people liked em, more so would it be something like "oh, that tattoo is very early 2000s"? Kinda like we talk about things like tribal or chrome being dated to a semi-specific time period. But yeah, we (hopefully) all love our tattoos and that's what's important.
  11. I don't think she's saying to apologize for it in anyway. But styles change, and even though traditional tattoos do have a staying power, certain elements won't be as accepted. I think it was Catcher in the Rye that said something along the lines of "no matter how cool it looks now, years down the line we'll all just look like those old people doing the Charleston." Should we apologize for that or let it sway what we get? Fuck no. But I'd be curious to see what collectors/tattooers/whoever think of my tattoos in ten-twenty-fifty years.
  12. @semele I know I say this any time you post any part of it, but goddamn is that sweet. I can't wait to start my Grez battle royale sleeve in January.
  13. One of these times I'm actually going to not be broke around this weekend, and I'll get a Saturday the 14th tattoo.
  14. I remember getting divebombed every time I walked past a certain house as a kid, but it wasn't a crow. Regardless, it still scares the crap out of me. I don't know what I'd do if crows continually attacked me. Once when I was really little, I remember a goose biting my mom. I'm always wary of them when I run by this pond near my house. Good luck out there.
  15. Welcome. I'd say that @Pugilist is probably on the right track. Who in Philly tattoos you?
  16. Had a consult with Grez on Saturday for my next one in mid-July. We also chatted a little about my arm that I'll finally be starting in January.
  17. I'd say you're in good hands. I'm excited to see yours progress.
  18. @Graeme Yeah, it's coming together really well. She has a few sessions (two? three maybe?) to finish up the geisha. It's gonna be so sick.
  19. Yeah, Virginia Elwood's stuff rules, and she seems cool as hell. Pics of your work? And welcome!
