I'm getting an elephant head on my thigh. We're going to iron out the rest when I get there Friday afternoon. My mom has collected elephants forever and I've wanted to do an elephant of some sort and Seth's elephants are all amazing. So when I saw his announcement on Instagram about the convention, I jumped on it. I'll post pics when I get back from Austin. Come to think of it, I need to post some progress pics of Kore's work on my back.

What time? I will be walking around Friday!

Couldn't resist booking a little one with El Monga while I'm in Barcelona. I'm getting a frog because I really love frog tattoos, and I really love El Monga's tattoos so it's going to be super cool a

Vicodin n Valium, works every time!

I did that for a month when I really jacked up my neck. It doesn't just make life bearable but getting the inflammation down can stop nerve damage etc too... Toughing it out can be a really bad idea. So- hooray for drugs (for a while anyway)

@jade1955

Hope you feel better man, whatever your method for getting there.

And I am so excited about it I could spit!! :D

So many tattoos on people I've never met that I'm excited for!

Really looking forward to hearing how the start of @ian 's back went too.

I guess about a week and a half until the next session on my arm, really looking forward to that because while I love what I have there now, I want to see where this tattoo is going next.

@jayessebee @hogg Thanks guys just got to be a bit careful tomorrow and I should be ok.

@Dan S as I live in Nanny State uk I can't get that stuff over the counter. I suppose it'll be an ibuprofen & Scotch cocktail. Single malt of course.

We can't get it OTC either, @jade1955, but an understanding sawbones...

But if you do stick to the Scotch, at least go for the Laphroig!

Shadeing from Thomas is better then the lines pain wise. Good luck can't wait to see it

That's good to know because the linework hasn't been so bad so far. He's lined the easy bits...shoulder, outer bicep, over the elbow onto the forearm, with some lines around the ditch...but he's so fast that he's at least not going to spend a huge amount of time on any one spot. Anyway, I'm getting super psyched for it, can't wait. When's your next session with him?

I contacted Jondix and he said he is booked till September this year and will start looking at new projects on May 20th.

I also called ROA to inquire about Hooper...didn't get an answer. I left a message and hopefully will be able to call back while he is still there. I believe he is there until tomorrow?

My next option is Michael Bennet...I haven't contacted him yet.

Ever look at Daniel Trocchio's work.

      Dysmorphia

      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. Everyone loves it. But for some bizzare reason, I can not look at myself in the mirror FOR 5 MONTHS with this tattoo. I have other tattoos, this being the 1st big and really visible tattoo. I feel like I have body dysmorphia or some shit. Its so weird. My friend is actually going to my tattoo guy BECAUSE of my tattoo. So, I don't know if anyone else has gone thru this? The tattoo looks weird to me. Not anyone else. I didn't want flowers and leaves because flowers remind me of funeral homes. I'm very yoga, my tattoos are suns, moons, lotuses. Zen shit. But I guess because I said I would never tattoo my upper arm and then tattooed my upper arm, I'm like omg what have I done?! Everyone loves this tattoo. My mother in law says it should be on stained glass and my own mom thinks it's so beautiful. There is not 1 shaky line. Not 1 flaw within this tattoo. He made the sun rays where they wrap around and up my shoulder. And it's just so jarring to me to look at. I don't get it.. or maybe just Cause I'm an idiot. It's not a broken up flow. Guy at the gas station covered in tattoos even loves it. Lol. I can't look at it. It's so weird. Just wondering what the hell is going on?! I've got other tattoos planned out, I love tattoos. I didn't want such a big tattoo and it turned out that way. I will say this, I have multiple sclerosis and went thru a relapse and I'm not sure if it messed with my brain somewhat?!?! Cause I was fine before that. I do have severe anxiety. But it was also winter when I got the tattoo. And now because it's on such display I'm questioning my design and its not at all a sleeve, its actually everyone seriously loves it. Except me. My tattoo guy drew the sun rays on me and i loved it. Then i pivked it apart. The rays r too wide, and too big and this and that. My tattoo guy is phenomenal...busts out the measuring tape and not a crooked line in any of hos work. Its just not ur typical flow of a tattoo. Like flowers and leaves flow. I wanted something different. Something that goes with my style and like i said, flowers like roses and stuff, noone buys me flowers because i hate flowers and im sorry to the flower people. Its just they remind me of funeral homes and all that. This was a custom tattoo by my tattoo artist that knows my style, and not his typical traditional style and he works with me like im a glass doll...lol. he free handed my sun and he is not cheap. And he does phenomenal work. So, i didnt cheap out. So why cant i look at I t? I feel like i ruined my arm i guess and my image. My husband says I upgraded...lol. in fact, he loves me in tattoos and my kids love it. So wtf is wrong with me? Has anyone ever experienced this? Sorry for the long post. It's should be noted, I saod out loud before getting the tattoo...mthos is not a good idea to put this here but I did it anyway. I think I didn't listen to my intuition and because I already know I'm a complete basket case, I should've listened to myself. Removal is not an option, I wint do that....plus, my tattoo guy says his tattoos dont come off...lol.  I got a forearm tattoo a month ago and I'm completely fine with it.

      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.
