Cork Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Got Monmon Cats in the mail today. An excellent little book to go over with the cat loving wife. Unfortunately it wasn't signed because @hogg is a real Christmas grinch, but I guess he is still kind of cool. ironchef, tatB and hogg 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 State of Grace Tattoo WebstoreMy wife just ordered three more. Thanks for informing! I didn't realize the set of 10 new prints were on sale already. It's a total cat month for me! Tattooed cat feet and now new prints. State of Grace likes to keep me in the poor house. Love it! suburbanxcore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironchef Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 Quick update. State of Grace and Horitomo released more prints so naturally I had to add to my wall. Filled in this space so far. Have six more pieces to place elsewhere in the apartment. Will provide another update shortly. LOVE the MonMon cats!!!

TrixieFaux Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Becoming obsessed with the idea of getting one of these tattooed...

Graeme Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I finally got these up in our place. We're missing a few at this point that I hope to eventually add, and I just ordered the Horitomo tenugui from the Perseverence exhibition so I'll have to figure out how to best hang that. I tried using the mounting tape but I guess the one I bought wasn't strong enough so one of the pictures fell from the wall and the frame smashed and it took until last weekend to get a new one and bring out the hammer, nails, measuring tape, and a level to properly put these up. I think they look great. Gregor, irezumi and hogg 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirkson Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Maybe not ideal, but I got frames at Costco for mine and they look pretty damned sharp. beez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now that I met him on Sunday and told him I want one as he signed my book with an awesome cat drawing....it's like I have to asap. I don't know how long the wait is, he just gave a nod and said, "call." Hardest thing now is figuring out which image/where........thinking it'll have to be on a leg since my arms are pretty much covered and I want to be able to look at it as much as possible! ? beez, SeeSea, Lance and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May I suggest your torso? Bigger area=bigger monmon cat. :-) I'm still awed by the monmon cat backpiece he posted on IG. Yeah, use that momentum and get on that list of his. You'll be able to save up while you wait. TrixieFaux 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, use that momentum and get on that list of his. You'll be able to save up while you wait. Well, yes of course you can suggest it and I will mull it over, but I will say I'm kind of into the idea of the one shot tattoo...it's been a while. I've been doing these multiple session arms over the past couple years. And then there's the thing about how I will never see it if it is on my torso! I do hear what you're saying though. Bigger certainly can be better when it comes to tattoos. I am leaning toward the side of my lower leg at the moment, but that isn't a lot of space. I do like your feet ones though--small but still awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cork Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Definitely went a little excessive with framing a $20 print, but these were our honeymoon purchase and Horitomo was gracious enough to sign them. The wife and I are very happy with how they turned out. Lance, SeeSea, hogg and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeeSea Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Ok, decision made. My next tattoo (oh jeez, I was ONLY going to get my back done...) I want to get a Monmon! I am infatuated with them. I don't know when, but someday. And I swear I won't get any more... I just bought three of the signed prints from SOG and SO BUMMED the cat and carp is out of print. - - - Updated - - - @Fala @TrixieFaux I'm having that breathless, panicked feeling that comes when I want something RIGHT NOW...calling is now on my to do list.
