A dude who interviewed adam hays at the London convention asked to take some photos of me as I have been tattooed by him a lot. Here's the photo he sent me yesterday.
Little arty for me but you get the idea haha.

If that's what the person wants and likes then its not a bad tattoo is it? I'm sure some people with fine lined realistic stuff will think my tattoos are old fashioned looking.
Eye in the beholder and all that.

I vaguely remember a nightmare after getting my first tattoo 22years ago. It involved me cutting my arm off because I thought it would look cool/tough and all my mates was doing it. Obviously ended up regretting this decision when I realised how it hindered me in life, woke up to see my tattooed arm still there with relief.

I have an appointment with Mina Aoki at Fun City, NYC on the 10th for a lady head. This will actually be my first full-color piece and first American traditional tattoo. I've been admiring her work on a colleague and decided I want her art as part of my collection.
Then, on August 1 Chris Garver is doing a pin-up for me, posed and colored like one of Gil Elvgren's girls, but dressed as a punk rock goddess with flaming red Mohawk, rock t, trad tattoos, combat boots & torn fishnets. I'm seriously amped for this one.

When I get a pimple I usually squeeze the heck out of it and can't leave it alone, it ends up massive. On that basis I recommend squeezing the heck out of it and you might end up with a full back piece.

After five months or so of getting tattooed at a more or less sane pace, this month I seem to be returning to full-on insanity. Filled in the gaps on my chest with a pair of butterflies yesterday by Robert Ryan--I really love my tattoos from him, and I love going out to Electric, even if it means braving New Jersey transit.

As requested here are a couple of photos of my Chris Garver tiger.

I was waiting to post this until it was healed up and haired over.
Chris O'Donnell. Completed at Saved Tattoo, Kings Avenue, and Chris' private studio.

another 2Days and 12 Hours of Tattooing :)

My back. Finished with Chris O'Donnell. Couldn't be more stoked on it.

maybe in time but definitely not before it's finished. I'd be pissed if someone ripped off my idea and finished it before I do!!

Don't waste money on a gym mate, just buy some dumbells and make a pull up bar.

Good luck.
I'm just getting back into fitness myself, need to give up smoking and want to hit 40 next year looking good.

Recently I have gained some damn good motivation to get healthy. Quit smoking a few months back and now have been working my ass off to get back in shape. Getting my chest tattooed has been a pretty big motivation.

Got this little train today from Adrian Hing (photo clearly robbed from his instagram)

So I'm back from my trip to LA visiting Bryan Burk and Chris Conn :o I had the best holiday of my life in just three days! and here are the results! Panther is by Bryan Burk, Dark Horse Tattoo and The cat-lady is of course by Mr. Conn himself! Best tattoo experience I have had and probably will ever have, he is something special this guy :o

My wife picked this out for me last night. Done by Jason at Taylor Street. Good times were had.

Go this sunday from the Awesome and generally super cool Beaux Brady on sunday to go with my other hand he did.

Finished this up with Xam earlier, another one that's difficult to get a picture of yourself but you get the idea...
