  1. Just dropping in a pic of my almost finished Matt Collins full back for the thread. Home stretch now, it’s 90% done just got a few touch ups to go, maybe 29 hours work so far I think? Stoked!

  2. @nominal looks 100% normal to me, it's still healing, more importantly is it takes several months to fully "settle in" to look more like the other settled in tattoo. relax, give it time, and start planning your next tattoo.

  3. For the horde! Maybe it's just my monitor or the lighting in the photo, but that looks grey to me.

  4. Thanks for the feedback. My artist basically said the same thing. It looks/feels a bit better today. Those secondary scabs are starting to solidify and aren't constantly leaking lymph fluid each time give it a gentle wash. For reference, here's what the job looked like right after the session. I hope it heals okay, and if not I can always get a bit of a touch up in that area. The rest of it is healing pretty normally.

  5. Hey all, Know this thread has been a little sleepy as of late, but just writing to say how much it helped me prep for my first session with Tony Hundahl on my back. Had it a few days ago and I definitely psyched myself out. I traveled from Chicago to Austin so had plenty of time to let my nerves get the best of me. I went in preparing for the worst, and while it was definitely rough, the tips and techniques mentioned in this thread helped immensely. All in all, it was a wild experience unlike any other tattoo I've gotten. Sat for roughly 3 hours and he was able to get the whole outline done. The craziest part for me was that you never really "get used to it" like many other tattoos I've gotten. Every line feels like the first. But in doing so, your mind goes to some crazy places to help get you through it. The "stoke" definitely pulled me through. I finished the session with an incredible high and feeling of confidence that I really wasn't expecting. Such an incredible experience. Anyways, going back in a month to start on the shading, and then hopefully booking a few back to back sessions to really get the ball rolling. Can't (but totally can) wait. -G PS: Tony Hundahl is the man. Can't recommend the dude highly enough. Since I'm traveling, he wasn't able to trace my back, but he still managed to have a stencil that ended up fitting perfectly. Definitely feel like I'm in good hands.

    Huge scabs

    Honestly I was so upset, especially when I was told by them it was my fault for having such a big area done & not speaking up that it hurt even though I did & they just carried on, they've done alot of work so I trusted them but seems I was in the wrong hands..
