Hello from Bangkok!

Hi everyone

I'm here at the invitation of the one and only "Hogg" who is excellent!

I'm a tattoo collector and fan and have been hooked but not serious since my first tattoo at 15. In the last 10 yrs or so I started thinking seriously about planning and collecting and have had work done by some fine tattooers. Megan Oliver at Inner Vision, Sydney, Trevor McStay, Horiyoshi III, Sabado, Wrath from American Graffitti, Filip Leu with Sabine Gaffron (work in progress), and Jondix.

I love travelling to get tattooed and realising that sometimes the place makes the tattooer as well (and the tattoo of course).

Hope to meet some nice people here and look forward to reading your thoughts!

In Bangkok for a few months for work and then, who knows...

lol.....this has been the most interesting and funny welcome i have read so far!! Welcome Daggboy and im so glad that Hogg told you to join us! have you been enjoying the website so far? are you originaly from thailand or from the U.S.?

Thanks Alanna for the warm welcome!

I'm from Singapore but have lived in Australia for a long time. Now in Bangkok working for a little while. No US connection whatsoever, only through the internet! I look forward to spotting some Thai shops though the quality of work I've seen on the street so far, though plentiful, has been mediocre. Seems everyone & their dog thinks Thailand's a great place to lie on the beach and get a tattoo (usually simultaneously)?!

    • First let me say I've never seen exactly that related to tattoos. Second, I am NOT a doctor, so take any advice with a grain of salt and follow it at your own risk. I do have something like that which appears on my face from time to time. After multiple visits to the dermatologist, which didn't fix it, I finally came up with my own treatment. Whenever it flairs up, I just wipe the area down with plain rubbing alcohol three or four times a day to keep it dry. That usually works within a couple of days. Again, I'm not a doctor, but I don't think it would hurt anything for you to try that. Good Luck.
    • Hey, I have a serious problem! I got a tattoo in Manila 4 weeks ago. The artist is very well known and is one of the most renowed. 2 day after tattooing, small pimples began to form on my thight an many at the tattoo. 3 days later i had fever at night (just at night). After that, the pimpels began to spread very quickly all over the body. (back stomach etc..) I have now been to 3 doctors and everyone is at a loss. The blood work is fine and with no anomalies. Antibiotic ointment and cortisone ointment did not help. Xyzall allergy tablets did not help either. When i took cortisone tablets, 90% of the pimpels disappeared on the tattoo, but not on the other parts of the body. Now that I´am no longer taking cortisone, the pimpels on the tattoo are starting to grow back again very quick. On the other parts of the skin , the pimpels are sometimes lighter and sometimes stronger. This can be change hourly. They don´t hurt and hardy lever itch. Of course I´am afraid of a tattoo allergie. Has anyone already had this problem ? Does anyone know what that could be ? I add photos: 1) Photo directly after tattooing. 2) 2 Photos with the pimpels after a week 3) After 3 weeks while taking cortisone. 4) Photo of the body on the left.
