Cork Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Thanks. It's hard to tell in this pic, but as the ear has healed, it has really started to pop. I'm really ready to have this done, we've been working on it since March and probably won't finish until next March. Ha I know how you feel. I started mine in May and I would hazard a guess that it's maybe halfway done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeL Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 A few more hours put in on my back piece. Also did last night background from under the pits on both side to mid rib cage. All work being done by Rodrigo Melo from Northstar Tattoo NYC. Super stoked at the progress.

itsC4 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Tiger kneecap by Destroy Troy. Timeless Tattoo Kansas City, MO This was done earlier this summer. Awesome dude. I cannot wait to get some more work done by him. If you look closely there's a scratch on the bottom right, that happen a week before the tattoo and was not done during the session. Split in to two 2 hour sessions, with a short touch up afterwards. This was taken directly after the second session, I just can't seem to get a better picture than this. I highly suggest getting a tattoo from Troy if you're ever in the KCMO area. Johannes, Kingdomhearts25, dirbab and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugxjuice Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I got some Higgs flash put on me the other day. It's the little flaming sword, I'm not gonna bother with a picture since most of you have probably seen it before. It's on the back of my knee, a little off center so it's not quite in the ditch, but it was still pretty tender. gougetheeyes, cltattooing and hogg 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathenist Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 It's just an excuse to take my shirt off if people compliment my leg I'll go "oh you think that's good?.. Bam!" Dude that tiger is one of my favorite tattoos ever, no kidding you want another from him. I say fuck it and get another one, some other variation naturally, but who gives a fuck, it's going to look awesome. hogg, Graeme and cltattooing 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joakim urma Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 This is what happened to me today: Rudy Fritsch, of course. I encourage anyone who as a chance to get something from this man, very inspiring and unique in every way. Well worth the trip to Trieste (nice town!) where his studio is. I think that's it for me, no more tattoos until spring. Ciao! edit: not really necassary to comment on how much I love this tattoo. I do. A lot.

carlyemaxey Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 These are my two newest. Just got them yesterday. For years I have taken my stress out on myself. The top of my left arm is covered in burn scars. The swallow represents freedom and New beginnings. The cage was where I was trapped. The cage is open. I am free.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk I must say that Paul is my favorite Bosch-surnamed tattooer, although he does very different work from what you have. Also, why don't you make a thread in the initiation forum to properly introduce yourself and tell us about your tattoo journey? hogg, Graeme and gougetheeyes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HettyKet Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Finally I have my first tattoo! It's reasonably small and it's not finished but I'm beyond chuffed. Graeme, TrixieFaux and real meta 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HettyKet Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Oh, erm. Hadn't realised I'd posted yet:confused: Is a long tailed-tit on a cherry twig (not blossom, leaf and one fruit), a bit bigger than my hand I suppose. So, yeah, if Willem decides it worth instagraming I'll link. Crikey, I really am thrilled! beez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I had to do was lay back and think of England. - - - Updated - - - lay back and think of England. hmm, possibly not the most internationally known idiom to choose. - - - Updated - - - you must feed the tattoo photo gods or your firstborn gets eaten!!!(p.s. congratulations! and welcome to the horde :) ) Ach, I'd love to but it's kind of not mine to share until it's finished. Well, to my twisted mind anyway :rolleyes: I suspect my firstborn would be very tasty, she's a good size too. beez, cltattooing and guitguy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
