Baboom

Made another Oslo trip last week to start a cover up on my lower stomach. While i was there i picked up a namakubi from Nicholas at Blue Arms.

The cover up is ongoing and i don't mind admitting i'm very apprehensive about the next session! This was not a fun tattoo to get although Marius did his best to keep my spirits up and a visit from LST's own Mr @Iwar definitely kept me distracted from the significant pain!
 

@suburbanxcore Indeed it was. He said he'll be back in June (for the Nick Cave show ) so you'll have another opportunity!

Here's a little party shark I got from Scott Sylvia recently. I meant to post healed pictures but it's a difficult area of my arm to photograph. Thanks for looking! starting the left sleeve next. 

It was great seing you again Gareth! Although I have to admit I felt like a sadist at times too, haha. You're tougher than most!
 

Got this kitsune from Matt Arriola yesterday.

reactivating this thread with my Thomas Hooper piece:

Ongoing piece. When it's done it will start at my ankle and connect to my chest piece. It's a tiger and samurai on my leg and dragon on my ribs/stomach. Just outline and shading so far on the dragon. We decided to work our way up.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I'm happy with it and don't plan on making any changes to it. That being said, when I went in on friday, my artist did say there were a few things he wanted to touch up (some shading that all but disappeared during healing and a few other minor things he noticed) so I'll be going back to the shop on monday for that.

Its cool man. I wouldn't over think it. Its art not science. Perfection takes the "character" out of it.

Colin Baker. Working next the the likes of Horitomo I can understand living in the shadow. That being said I think he is killing it right now. 

3.5 hours put in today by Tim and I. We covered a  lot of ground, outlining my entire arm. the ditch of my arm wasn't awesome. Unfortunately for me theres an oni head right there so its going to seeing a lot more abuse.
The atmosphere at atlas is rad, theres absolutely zero ego floating around. Everyones interested in what their peers are doing. Stoked to head back next week.

Holy poop. Just booked travel to Denmark for a tattoo in May.

Just dropped by Atlas to see the rendering Tim drew up. The 3rd can't come soon enough.
