Seems like you've added a half dozen since spring. Thanks, @otisc! I've lost count. Probably about 50 or so? I don't know. It could be more. I had only one 5 years ago. Hahahaha!

Devious6 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 @Rob I Thank you! I love it - just what I wanted. I don't think I've mentioned it before. The artist is a local person here in my area. Scotty Lammers - he specializes in American Traditional but did my other one as well.

iowagirl Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 My big piece was finished last night. Sooo now becomes the deliberation of what I want to do next, where I want to do it. I'm stumped. Was going to talk to my artist last night but I was so focused on pretending it didn't hurt.. Husband has put his leather armor on hold and went w/a new artist, starting this tiger. He loves the new artist so that's great. A dragon is going on the back of the calf there and everything will be in color. sophistre, marley mission, Rob I and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viezure Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Hey everyone, here's my latest tattoo, Joker :) It's two weeks old, so it's still healing (2nd phase of sking flaking) and a little waxy. Also, another pic with how the arm looks so far (half sleeve yeey). I'm loving it and can't wait for more!

I posted the pics on FB and nobody commented on his tiger, they all made remarks about my hairy leg..so he's like what the hell? But, we don't really know many people into tattoos that can "see" what it's going to look like finished. I'm kinda jealous of how cool it's going to look as it progresses, and he's got sessions to look forward too..and I'm scrambling b/c I want more!

The colour combination used is also good. Even I am planning to get a Dragon tattoo on my calf, but I heard some people say that The Dragon represents good things in the East and hence considered bad luck if removed on calves (Or below waist region). Is it true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgana Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 My little birthday present from me ;). "Borrowed" the pic from the artist's Facebook since I 'dermed it as soon as I got home and didn't think to photograph it first. Hand poked (by a licenced tattoo artist at a professional studio). I found the technique super relaxing & interesting, and this will probably not be my last although I'm craving some colour next.

Padji Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 So, this turned out way better than I could have expected. Got it finished in two sessions with the second one at Allstar Ink in Limerick, Ireland. Chris Stuart was guesting there for a day prior to the London convention so I was lucky enough to grab the spot. A great experience again. I couldn't speak highly enough of Chris and the atmosphere was enhanced with the liked of Nagle, Peck, Topper, Noble, Arment all working there on the same day. Anyway, I'll let the pic do the talking ? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk Gingerninja, DJDeepFried, chrislj54 and 17 others 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polliwog Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) @Padji Not sure how long Josh Arment is there for, but you should get tattooed by him! The tattoo he put on my leg a year ago gets so many comments from other tattooers. Edited September 22, 2016 by polliwog mtlsam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsNewport Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Picked this one up from Marc Nava at the London tattoo convention yesterday. Such a nice guy and i had a great time being tattooed by him. Really wish i was at the convention today/tomorrow as there seemed to be a LOT of artists taking walk ups that had time (Frankie Carracioli, for example, was in the booth with Marc and didn't do a single tattoo on Friday, at least not by the time i left around 8pm). Bumped in to a few LSTers too, wish i knew their names here but it was a pleasure seeing you all, even managed to stumble across my main man @Iwar when i was literally on my way out of the convention. exume, SStu, viezure and 16 others 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
