I just got some more work done, and damn I had some serious healing issues. No more Blue for me. Sad

Sorry this pic sucks. Its at my parents house during the 4th. My arms are almost done (full sleeves, very vintage stuff), I have two large pieces on my back. I may get chest plates and that will probably be it.

What do you guys have? Have you ever had a reaction to a color? Lets see some pics!!!!! Smile

I have two half-sleeves, my wife made me quit while I was ahead. Man I dig your sleeves! I'm jealous. Once you start its hard to stop. How did you upload your pic?

I have plans but I'm not made of money and figure it's better to take it slow and feel really really good about the stuff I get because they are literally investments. Here's the only one right now on my left wrist...

I have always known what I wanted. Not really anything specifically but a whole genre (old school).

I usually leave it up to my artist. He has been doing tats on me for at least 4 yrs. His specialty is old school with lots of color. Im pretty dark so color does not show up on me as well as others. My other arm is really colorful, but you cant see it real well in that crappy pic.

The closest I can get to describing the pain is cat scratches with a slight tickle.

Spinwax, sometime when you can, get some close-up action on those babies...

The cool thing is the first artist I talked to when I was looking around had a lot of the same interests as me artistically... it sounded like he was moving though, but if he's still around I'm definetly going to have my stuff done by him. Big on old school skateboarding and 90s hardcore Cool

This is my back as of right now. Sorry it's blurry, we were pretty drunk when we took it. It isn't done. It will continue to creep up over my shoulder and around my neck and collar bone.

My boy Crag Foster did it. It's all custom and I've got about 9 hours in it and need about 7 more to complete it. Then I will be cool, people will like me, and they will stop throwing rocks at me.

A tattoo feels like someone is stabing you with a needle about a bazillion times (and yes, bazillion is both the technical and professional term). If you really want to know. Have your friend poke you in the back with a safety pin (deep enough untill it draws blood, don't be a whimp) and multiply that by a bazillion.
