Should take 3 or 4 sessions. Will post the outline and shading hopefully over the weekend. This makes me ridiculously happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted in the new tattoo section, but will hang it here as well. She changed up the peony design for the better from the OG artwork.

Oiocha Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Back to Tomo for Martin Luther King Holiday! My best friend is coming along this time and we're going to San Francisco while we're in the Bay Area, we're really excited because we booked a reservation with Saison for dinner. A completely different kind of wild ride, the good kind, for once as I'm only doing four hours a day with Tomo and will have some free time to explore with my friend.

tcgjake Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Went with my fiance to get her tattoo a few days ago so I could show the artist a Friday the 13th tattoo that I am looking to get reworked and added to. He had a cancellation on the 26th so I grabbed it. Really looking forward to it as I've known since I got the tattoo that I wanted to add to it so I've been avoiding the area until it is finished. The original scarred pretty badly and a lot of the ink fell out but I never got it touched up as I thought it gave it a more rugged look. I'll post before and after pictures when it's done. scottyg and Gingerninja 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) So I just got back from a consultation with https://www.instagram.com/tanyatattoos/ for a filler on my right arm for a B&G dragonfly & bee & butterfly.

I have an appointment 02/25/19 for it. it's real close to home too. her shop in Folsom Ca https://www.instagram.com/rosegoldtattoo/?hl=en and yep ! you can see Folsom Prison from her shop.

grog Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Hey everybody! I recently put down a deposit for a full sleeve with Justin Hartman. It'll be a lady-head centric peice, based around Auri from the Kingkiller Chronicles book series. I'm super excited! I'm on a wait list for the first session and Hartman is currently traveling, so I'm not sure when or where we'll start, but I get to check out some new cities at the same time. It should be an excellent experience! scottyg, SStu and Gingerninja 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerninja Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 @grog Excellent! It will be interesting logistically to travel to get your sleeve. 🙂 Sounds like a blast. grog 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oiocha Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Going to see Tomo next weekend and I'm ready to go. I also haven't forgotten about posting my Daruma: its perpetually got something that wont let me take a clean picture. scottyg, SStu, Gingerninja and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongsau Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 @Oiocha one of the students at our kung fu school got a full colour turtleback from Tomo (at Silkneedle, he was travelling to Japan regularly). It was his first and only tattoo. The details and patterns are insane, got that velvet look. You're pretty lucky, enjoy the ride. piccalilli and scottyg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oiocha Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 The ride is wild as hell the whole way but I know I will only ever get to have one back piece, I'm so happy that I could wait and make it count. There isn't a single other person in my mind I could think of that I would want to do my back, at all, other than Tomo. I have the rest of the skin real estate for anyone else but the back is special. I'm saving my pennies and dimes for April/May; I'm hoping the heavy hitters show up to Jacksonville for the Imperial Tattoo Convention again and maybe if I'm lucky I can go to the Bay Area Con just once at least.

JAC1961 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Had a consultation today for my next tattoo. It will be a tribute to my mom and dad, a pair of red roses with a dagger behind, neo-traditional, solid black and red, done by Mike Schlicher. Now I just have to survive the long wait until March 21. 😔 scottyg, Gingerninja and SStu 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sihian Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 I'm getting my first tattoo in 12 hours! I've even traveled for it and I'm super excited. The artist said it'd take 7 hours and I really hope that it isn't 7 hours of straight tattooing.. I've packed sweets, two bananas, a book and a switch so I hope that'll be plenty of sugars and entertainment. Now to hope that I can sleep now that the time to get the tattoo is almost here! I'll be getting a sword and a bird in the black illustrative style, but I haven't seen the design yet. I can't wait!

Good idea! I've drank a lot so I hope it'll be fine. The stencil is on my leg now and I'm super excited. I didn't even have to make any changes. It'll take up almost my whole upper leg, as the artist told me the details look better this way, but I don't mind. Not planning to get (many) more tattoos anyways.
