My latest is only a few hours old. Is this the first LST-themed tattoo? If it is, I also know who got the second (only moments after me): Courtesy of Mr. @Scott Sylvia himself. PS Like thi

All right. For those who've seen it all ready, for those who've been waiting, for those who don't know what the fuck I talking about, for those who don't care: here is my back now. Finished this S

@dirbab - very, very nice!

I just got this from [MENTION=2486]lukemuller[/MENTION] at True Love Tattoo (Brisbane) maybe an hour or so ago. No idea how long it took, but it couldn't have been any longer than 2 hours? (no time limit etc so we just cruised) I got it for the most amazing, awesome and wonderful woman I know ;)

Cheers @Reyeslv !! Mum's been pretty sick lately so thought it might be nice to get something for her. And Luke did a damn fine job ;) I couldn't have asked for anything better

I'm really sorry to hear that, I hope she gets better! I am doing a Mom piece myself at the end of April, I lost her in January. Nothing better than the Moms!!!!!

I just got home from our little trip to LA, and I brought a friend:

I went to Bob Roberts and asked him for one of his tiger heads. He saw the spot I had open and furrowed his brow. "That's gonna be tough." He tried to sketch something on, but I could tell he was kinda flustered, so I said, "Ya know, I also really like your spiders." He lit up and said, "Now you're talkin'!" He drew it on and knocked it out in half an hour. All in all, it was a great, great experience. He and I chatted about music and, of course, tattoos. He asked to see my back, then said, "I got a snake on my back, too." He then proceeded to melt my face off by showing me his Ed Hardy backpiece, as well as his Horiyoshi III torso pieces. Coolest fucking dude ever, and I am beyond stoked on my black widow.

goddammit =( i wish my appointment didnt fall through. ugh

Yeah, I'm really sorry that it didn't work out for you, but I have to say, I'm jealous of what you DID get from Bryan, so I don't feel too bad for you! BTW, I stopped by Dark Horse after my Spotlight session. What a gorgeous shop that is.

i've been lurking this thread for a while, so i figure it'd only be right to join in the fun. i saw a few recent posts about Matt Arriola being back at Liberty in Seattle for a guest spot, so i got a little somethin. i asked him for a tradtional-ish 13 with a cat, but wanted a japanese lucky cat (maneki neko) instead. the attached pic is what he came up with.

now, i'm a bit of a tattoo addict and enthusiast (i'm on this forum, aren't i?). it occurred to me that this design was a little familiar... and it hit me! i went back and checked where i thought the reference might be and there it was. in all honesty, at first i felt a little duped, but then i realized that's a lot of what tattooing is and i have no reason to be upset. i dug the design when he showed it to me and i still dig it now... it's almost cooler knowing where it originated.

i also just saw a quote on thomas hooper's blog, that sums up the point well...

“The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.” - Albert Einstein

thanks for the tip, Al!

btw, this DEFINITELY means no offense to Matt... he's obviously a creative and cool ass dude. in hindsight, me asking for that design was already a start to breach his potential all out creativity. another lesson learned... and a tattoo to remember it by!

Malone reference is the best reference.

      Tattoo anxiety

      By jdm · Posted

      Hello, So I'm new here and reddit is just awful people so, I wanted advice. So for some reason, I allowed a tattoo be blasted down my arm. My fault I know. I'm very fit and complimented all the time how tone my arms are. So, I got a sun over a lotus tattoo. My artist is extremely talented, there is not 1 shaky line, crooked line, and hes not cheap. Hes been tattooing me and my husband a long time. The line work is out of this workd, perfectly straight. Its a bold tattoo. All black. Everyone loves it. But for some bizzare reason, I can not look at myself in the mirror at this tattoo. Has this ever happened to anyone before? It's healed, but all I do is cover it and hide it. Has this happened to anyone? It turned out bigger and bolder than I ever imagined. From my shoulder to about 3 inches above my elbow.

      Good luck. Job hunting sucks. I got laid off from a company after 20 years and it took six months to find a job. I was in the dreaded “middle” management role at an IT company. A little over two years later my new company was  bought out and they did a “restructuring” which means the people doing the work get fired so the people sitting on their fat asses get fatter.  I couldn’t find what I really wanted so I just retired. Might be a good time to think about switching fields.

      The only "amazing" thing I've been doing lately is job hunting. Honestly, it’s stressful. I’m always worried about having enough money for basic expenses and stuff each month. There are lots of jobs on Layboard https://layboard.in/vacancies/jobs-in-uae/jobs-in-dubai/speciality/baker, where I’ve spent most of my time. I sent my CV to several companies and I’ve got decent baking skills, even without formal training. So I hope they'll give me a chance to do a test task or something to show what I can do.
