Got this one from Stevie Edge to top a good week of getting tattooed.

Went to KC for the weekend and managed to snag a walk in with Noah Moore, he filled in a pretty awkward spot with this rose:

I know she's been mentioned before but I think Kim-Anh Nguyen (https://instagram.com/kimanh_n/) deserves a little more exposure.
She works out of Seven Seas Tattoos in Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
Here's a couple I stole from her facebook (https://www.facebook.com/bleakandblue):

New panther from Aaron Coleman, mostly healed.

here's my new snake on my lower leg by Bailey Robinson. Taken from his insta, best photo I have at the moment.

Haha, I was there, too. He walked by and my wife and I both did a double take. Great point you make about being at a tattoo convention and having a "Look at that guy! He has tattoos!" moment.

Have not posted for a while but had to show my new piece off!
Done by the very talented Valerie Vargas

Tattoo of the year.

Got this from Scott Sylvia over the weekend, very happy with it (stole the pic from blackhearts IG). Gonna go back to Blackheart for their walk in day in a couple weeks too.

I don't have many tattoos yet but I love the ones I do have. New one done last month at Frith Street by Stewart Robson... (I hope it works)

Hey all! I'm new here and have a initiation thread going. Thought I would kick off my posting here with my latest tattoo, done two days ago at Blue Arms Tattoo in Oslo by Tony Nilsson.

I have borrowed the picture from Tony's instagram, which can be found here: Instagram

All healed; done by Chris O'Donnell. I couldn't be any happier with it and can't wait to start on my back in 2015.

Yesterday by El Monga at Spider Murphy's....There's a better shot on his instagram, but you get the idea.

Very nice Inntrospect is it by Diego?

I had a session on my back at Frith Street today, while I was there Stewart managed to squeeze me in for a qucky, and I so glad he did, I love it

Welcome @tacifone.
Spend as much time as you can reading the forums; there's a lot of wisdom packed in these pages. And if you don't have an account yet, get on Instagram and start following local artists whose work appeals to you.

While waiting for a couple of tattoo appointments coming up I decided to get a tattoo while I wait. This one was by Nathan Draper at The Pearl. He did a great job and is a really nice guy, too. A good experience all around.
Update: Please ignore my disgusting sock!

Got a couple of filler tattoos last night on my right arm. Both done by James Clements at Fortune and Glory in Shreveport, LA.

@CultExciter Next level shit, man. Super stoked for you.
I got my foot did by Antonio Roque this evening. Picture's from his IG.

About 7 weeks ago, I got my first tattoo, which was the words "Love will tear us apart again" written down the centre of my forearm. Almost four weeks ago I got my second tattoo, the reading of the first discovered pulsar, also the cover of Joy Division's "Unknown Pleasures," completing the piece.
A little background on the piece: when I was 16, quite a few serious events unfolded in my life. I was a foster child at the time, and I had some mental health issues that resulted in me being volleyed about from hospital to hospital as psychiatrists picked apart my brain and my behavioural problems. At some point I ended up at a hospital in up-state New York, where I saw the movie "Donnie Darko" for the first time. To cut the story down to size, I identified with the movie. One song in it particularly caught me: Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart." I listened to it daily. Fast forward a year, give or take, and while living in a group home, one of the boys I lived with gave me the "Unknown Pleasures" CD for Secret Santa. He never got the help he needed, or the family he needed, and wasn't as fortunate as I was. So while this piece is also a tribute to one of my favourite bands, it is mainly a reminder of a time in my life, and of how lucky I am.

I've already had several kids in big glasses and flannel come up to me in New York and complain that "Love Will Tear Us Apart" isn't on "Unknown Pleasures." Having to deal with them is probably my only regret about this tattoo.
EDIT: Sorry about the huge pictures. Is there any way to resize them so they don't punch everyone in the face with how big they are?

Victorian Dolphin by R.J. Hitchcock at American Graffiti Tattoo in Sacramento, CA.

I finished my ankle band coverup last night. I now have two big blue roses instead. Hopefully you get the idea.

All my ugly tattoos are gone now. From now on any tattoos I get will be all NEW.

Finally got some new stuff.

Sorry about the size, I have no idea how to fix it though.

I got tattooed by Frank Carter again a few days ago. We tattooed some dice on my arm as well to fill some space which led to us rolling dice to decide the price. I lost...
