CultExciter

Not re-pressed yet but worth seeking out is the Eye Tattooed America book.

I bought that from Chuck this fall. He told me I was making a wise decision getting it now while he still has a number of copies left.

@CultExciter $50 each feels like a steal. I was expecting $75-$100 each. The 3 flash volumes plus American Tattoo Master will look very nice in my stack of tattoo art books :)

edit to add the "now available" link:

Sailor Jerry book reprints NOW AVAILABLE - Hardy Marks Publications and Don Ed Hardy Archive

Definitely a steal!

I purchased the three flash books last night. My impulses vs bank account are in fisticuffs at the moment. I'm definitely looking forward to them reissuing the red flash book.

I have a second edition of American Tattoo Master. The first edition had a navy blue border around it, if I am not mistaken.

That said, NEWS:

Andrew Malcolm at Skull & Sword full time! Mind melts...

Rodney Raines posted this yesterday. It's a good example. Not the oldest tattoo in the world (17 years), but it shows what is going to hold everything together.

@MadeIndelible You're taking the right steps man. Good luck. Just hold yourself fully accountable, and you will promote yourself to a standard that you deserve.

I personally have wanted to give up booze completely several times in my life. Possibly it has to to do with the regret I feel towards my True Til 21 days. No time like the present.

What are the consequences of having too much black? any examples?

Having a tattoo that looks like a fucking tattoo.

I've seen it done before, and woof, that kid had more stamina than anything I've ever seen. I believe it was back, ribs, thighs, and half sleeves lined in one 10 hour day. I almost vomit thinking about it.

i have no words

the inthernetzzzzz is fool of troof.

as part of a healthy eating challenge I haven't had a drink since May 3rd.

That's awesome. I try this, as much as a can, but it usually only last 4 or 5 days.

No one likes a tattletale. Say something to the tattooer if you feel like it. Be prepared to not getting the response you want to hear, even though I do hope you get that.

This all sounds like a bad Yelp review.

Yeah man what this guy ^ said. It's just a commonly mis-used term and we just clown on that, not on you.

I prefer drawn or penned on. It seems to make the tat gun work better. :cool:

Here we go with the naysayers.

No dude, just some jovial ribbing. I believe the term you're looking for is freehand.

The artist I go to freestyled my left arm

I've always liked Lord Belial, not so much a fan of Grand Belial's Key however.

That Middian recommendation gets you off the hook this time.

So everyone knows what we are talking about. Such a perfect record for a short-lived band.

I didn't know who/what that was before your post and I can't say that my life has improved in any way now that I have this knowledge.

Hahahaha. It's true, I probably didn't help in the least. However, maybe you'll let it slide since I mentioned Middian. And big ups on Kiss It Goodbye. I still have my Deadguy tee.

I'm not gonna lie, the new Jessica Lea Mayfield has been played constantly. I should just go to that music thread for a day or two.

More old favorites:

The new La Sera album cover is up our Poison Idea alleys.

I used to live next to UPenn, and I would always blare this while driving around:

I think this would be a good option:

Such a solid tattoo.

I love those Tennessee crust fellas. HHIG/Tragedy/From Ashes Rise always keep me energized.

Has anyone mentioned Aus Rotten? Cause we should.

so i'm looking for some help and i'm pretty sure i read this question here before...but can't find it by searching: what's the origin/name/artist of this classic desgin of a girl head with a card (heart,diamond,etc.) attached to her forehead? :confused:

@Graeme has mentioned it before, go to page 21 or so of this thread. Karl Lark sheet that can be found in Flash From The Past book.

I love Monmouth Beach.
