  1. I'll be there on the Sunday. No plans to get tattooed as yet but you never know
  2. Couldn't agree more. And on that subject, less than 2 weeks til i'm back in Oslo for back piece session number 3 and a little one shot from Morten at Blue arms. Can't wait!
  3. Was wandering around Bath today and got a walk in with Jimmie Tatts, filled in an awkward gap on the inside of my elbow. The shop is a 20 minute drive from my house but i've never been there before today. Makes a change from all the travelling i've been doing for tattoos!
  4. Yeah that is seriously badass. I feel the tattoo jealousy rising within me once more! Edit: Oh god dammit i shouldn't have clicked on the previous page. You people are killing me here!
  5. Booked up for back piece session number 3 with Marius Meyer on the 19th of May, also managed to snag an appointment with Morten Transeth the day before. Gonna be a good trip!
  6. Damn, you don't fuck around! Awesome work, but that goes without saying when you've got that kind of lineup working on you.
  7. @Wilhell that fucking slays man, i have a serious man crush on your choice in tattoos
  8. You must be made of tough stuff. Chad did an all seeing eye on my outer forearm, below the elbow and i spent the whole time wanting to punch him! Thing is, pain or no pain the results speak for themselves and you're well on your way to having an incredible backpiece.
  9. 2 Chad K backpieces, doesn't get much better than that! I don't envy either of you guys going through that though, Chad is very heavy handed! Edit: 2 friggin hours?! Jesus that's insane!
  10. To follow on from my last post, i got the book delivered yesterday and it's really fantastic. I'd advise any of you to pick it up if you can
  11. That's my birthday! Shame i'll be sat at work 140 miles away :/
  12. I seriously need to get on Valerie's list. That is flawless Edit: And @Iwar that is awesome, what sort of size is it?
  13. Not that i disagree, but pot, kettle, black!
  14. 8 days post backpiece and no itching as yet. All healing nicely save for a few really dark black spots that are dry as a nun's chuff, but that's nothing i didn't expect. Feel like i've really lucked out on the healing for both sessions so far, which tells me i'm due an absolute bitch!
  15. I'm not itching just yet, still in the uncomfortable phase where any kind of stretching, bending or movement in general feels like having bad sunburn slapped with a cricket bat. Yesterday was not an enjoyable day!
  16. Glad you mentioned this. After my first session i used cream for maybe 2 days but i hated the feeling so stopped using it. So far i've not used any cream and i'm doing ok (relatively), but i think i'll probably have the same experience as you now that i've got big chunks of shading to heal.
  17. Managed to snag an appointment with Chris O'Donnell when he guests at Sang Blue this year. Not sure what the dates are yet but the tattoo itself is gonna be a big ass Fudo Myo-o on my right thigh. 2015 is going to be a terrible year for my wallet, but fuck it.
  18. Marius is a friggin machine, love the picture caption too!
  19. The day after a 5 1/2 hour backpiece session of mostly shading. Fuck my life right now.
  20. Cross posting from the back piece thread, this is after session 2 with Marius Meyer yesterday. Yesterdays session was all the scales, all the shading in the skull and all the yellow. Looking to get the next session booked in for around the beginning of April, hopefully.
  21. Session 2 done yesterday, plenty left to do but its crazy how different it looks from the end of the 1st session. Borrowed this pic from Marius' instagram page. Started with the fine line scales on the snake, then the black in the skull and finally some colour on the snake. All told it was probably 5 - 5.5 hours this time around.
  22. Yeah, this is me although only from the waist down. I have legs like a gorilla and the chest of a 12 year old boy, so any below the belt tattoos i always clipper down the hair so it's not so much work for the artist. I never completely shave it, though.
  23. Haha, standing only but it's at the Bristol academy so it's fairly easy to avoid the pit. There's a balcony above and a raised area set back from the floor, where the bar is (my spiritual home), so i'll just have to take a bit of a back seat. I say this now, but there's a good chance i'll get a few pints in me and just go to the front.
