misterJ Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hey Hey I've been lurking around the forums for a few weeks now reading all that I can, and I finally joined up. I am a 32 year old guy from long island that for the most part I am sure fits into all those awful stereotypes about my hometown. :D I have been into tattoo as my main form of art and expression for as long as I can remember and am happily (albeit slowly) adding to my current small collection. I appreciate most all varieties of work, but have a huge disdain for the "look at me I need attention" stuff which I have noticed you guys refer to as the Warped tour body suit. So more likely than not I will be appreciating what I see. I don't know what else to add but thank you for having such a great community and I hope to add to it. -Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterJ Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 Welcome dude! Where you normally get tattooed? I don't really have a normally. Right now I am getting work done by Mr. Rubendall at Kings Ave. I am headed for my second session on my back piece this Saturday. I am beyond excited and am sure this will slowly evolve into a way too expensive bodysuit of some variation as long as he will be patient with me lol. Part of the reason I joined up was I wanted to journal the progress of this piece (possibly). thanks for the welcomes TrixieFaux and tatB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterJ Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 I promise you that we won't be bothered if you want to keep us updated about your back, especially if pictures are involved. Welcome! Thank you I appreciate the support. Yea I have a few choice pictures from the first session. My favorite was my body being saran-wrapped for the car ride home. I have I believe until 10 posts total to create my own thread. I wasn't sure about jumping in to the back piece thread or making one I have to admit I'm hoping to make his damn instagram. I feel like that's how I know he's into it. tatB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatB Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 @misterJ did you stand in line outside kings ave last June to get your appointments? I was there towards the middle/back of the line. Also do you mind giving us a description of what your are getting so we can all image how cool it looks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterJ Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 Yea I was like third in line... I got there at like 5:30am and was shocked when I wasn't first. In the picture they took of the line outside I was the big guy in a red shirt at the front. (I think it was a red shirt) They posted it on instagram ages ago. It was funny how many people walking by asked if we were waiting for concert tickets. I hope the pic uploads but its a tiger fighting 2 smaller oni with peonies wind bars and waves. In the pic I'm like 4+ hours deep and felt like death. Rubendall is the man for coaching me through the session. He is an absolute professional and super cool EDIT: the big purple circles on my back are spaces reserved for 2 more peonies he didn't yet draw up he kept it there for visual reference. tatB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatB Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Awesome! Are you going full back including ass and thighs? Or just above the belt for now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterJ Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 Low to mid butt. My wife really doesn't want my butt tattooed so I'm trying to respect that. I do want my thighs done so we shall see what happens tatB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
