Iwar Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Time for another contest folks. Can't wait to see this month's submissions! Here are the rules: The tattoo picture that gets posted in this thread for May 2014 with the most 'likes' for the month wins! The contest starts on the first of the month and ends on the last day of the month. Your tattoo picture must be posted in this thread (both tattooers and tattoo customers can win) in order to qualify. Include with your photo/post...tattoo artist name & tattoo shop. You MUST be the one who has the tattoo or did the tattoo. You can 'like' as many tattoos as you want. It can be a finished or in progress tattoo. You cannot enter the same tattoo in more than one contest. Fundoshi's are encouraged, but not required.

mtlsam Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 This is a healed shot of my somewhat Ed Hardy inspired gorilla rose situation, tattooed by Chad Koeplinger. An hour and a half to outline and do most of the black. Three hours to finish. Two fun sessions! cibo, MrToby, Bohemian Montreal and 41 others 44 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9Years Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Determined to turn this month into a ridiculous rib piece battle.... Uncle Allan. Conspiracy Inc, Berlin. All healed up. paul4523, Avery Taylor, Diehardonvhs and 45 others 48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadeIndelible Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 @9Years Saw that on Uncle Allan's blog. Very rad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtlsam Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Determined to turn this month into a ridiculous rib piece battle....Uncle Allan. Conspiracy Inc, Berlin. All healed up. That's a rad tattoo! It's kind of awesome that with a little good planning you can end up having 3 or 4 really big images on your upper body. The ribs are like a slightly smaller back!

Popular Post TrixieFaux Posted May 2, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 2, 2014 My Kim Saigh arm is healed. Why is it so hard to get good pics? There are 5 shots here and still no full view of the inner bicep rose. Oh well. Good enough!

jimmyirish Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Its been a busy month for me, got my 3/4 sleeve finished and was incredibly lucky to get a cancellation eagle with Valerie Vargas. So here is the first one... Valerie Vargas, Frith Street Tattoo, London. cvportagee, Rebushido, ironchef and 43 others 46 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogg Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Luck of the Irish, indeed, @jimmyirish. I think Valerie's eagles are some of the best around. jimmyirish, Boiled Dove, beez and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polliwog Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 That's a beautiful gorilla, and the colors are so smooth that they're almost creamy...but it's also hard for me not to wince inwardly, thinking about how that must've felt. :p I would be drinking All The Beers. It's also crazy that there are so many amazing tattoos here that something like that doesn't win automatically. Every month seems to be surpassing the last. hogg and mtlsam 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
