I haven't posted in forever, and I guess I never entered this one from Steve Byrne that I got over the summer in Austin.

This is still the best photo I have of it, but it healed nicely. Arm is just about done other than very small gap fillers.
Based on this World War I German propaganda poster about the dangers of Bolshevism that I saw earlier that day in a World War I exhibit in town.

Throwing the hat in. Newbie getting his second tattoo, 4 months after his first.
I got this skull and dagger from Luke Wessman in NYC @ Wooster Street Social.

Tim Lehi oneshot

Got this lady head from Max Kuhn on Monday! Wraps a bit!

For fun, my peony by Wendy Pham done as guest spot at Red Rocket Tattoo in NYC

Regino Gonzales of Invisible NYC. He's a cool dude.

Nekomata Monmon Cat - By Horitomo, State Of Grace.
Done at the London tattoo convention 2014!

@Wilhell, @Ninab, their 3 year old son Levi and myself will be visiting SF from October 15th till 22nd, and we'd love to hook up with some fellow LSTers while we're there! Don't hesitate to holler if you'd like to meet up with us :)
I was also wondering if anyone knew what the best mode of transportation to and from San Jose is. I'm booked with Horitomo on Saturday (the 18th), and I have to get from SF to SJ and back. I'm considering renting a car, but from what I can tell most car rentals are closed on weekends, so I'd have to rent friday through monday if I go that route.
Any tips on exhibitions, museums, bars (don't worry, Levi's not tagging along for that one) etc are also more than welcome.
If anyone's wondering, Wilhelm is getting tattooed by O'Donnell and Hoyer in NY the week before, then Rassier and Lehi in SF. Nina is booked with Scott Sylvia, and I'm in with Grime and Horitomo. If we're lucky there might be one or two walkins along the way too :)

Here is my submission for this months contest.
My whole backpiece has been done in a 6-month period (just 31 hours in total) by Bonel from Corazon Santo, Arnhem, The Netherlands.

I also have a full size picture available HERE

New to the tattoo forum, and of course I have questions, that's why I am here. I will try to wait until I post the 10, but really I do not know much about tattoo's, which is why I came here to begin with. After I have visited a couple of pages and read some of the posts, this seems like a pretty good forum. And "LST", I'm from the "STL"!!!

Picked up this lil' thigh giblet while on vacation in Japan in 2013 from the (then) Hiroshi Hirakawa at Three Tides Tattoo, Osaka

I'll enter this one because I love my eagle. Happy to see her every day, and she has a name :o

Blaming @Graeme for this one since he posted his hairy man legs on instagram. I'm sure those famous legs Stuart at Spider Murphy's has filled up has given everyone the itch to do the same.. Or seeing Henning's work on those meaty thighs of @ironchef if you're going the Japanese route. But I'll tell ya, I'm real happy with how my short little legs are coming together and thought I'd get the ball rolling by saying fuck it and posting my hairy dude legs. Kinda weird, I know. Maybe I'll get weirded out and edit out the photo... Maybe (definitely) @MrsGougeTheEyes will yell at me and roll her eyes forever.
But fuck it, here's a shot of the front of mine. In the kitchen. Visible tattoos by Andy Perez (@Perez), Todd Noble, Oliver Peck, Nash Hogan, Jake Fraser, Scott Sylvia (@ I forget your LST name brother), Bailey Robinson, Sophie C'est LaVie.. There are some on the back and some on the sides that are tough to see but this will suffice for now.
@slayer9019 I know you're squidding it up slowly but surely and @else I just went back and read your intro thread. Totally totally awesome, especially with how everything's gone. (It's here for anyone who wants to take a gander.. http://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/initiation/3283-changing-way-i-see-myself.html)
Now let's see those legs!! (So I don't feel so weird..)

Back-piece finished a few weeks ago.

This session we did all the green. The end is near.. By Marius Meyer

This is a healed shot of my somewhat Ed Hardy inspired gorilla rose situation, tattooed by Chad Koeplinger. An hour and a half to outline and do most of the black. Three hours to finish. Two fun sessions!

Shirts and Destroy just started carrying shirts designed by Tim Lehi. You can get one with a tiger on it and pretend that you're @hogg:
Tim Lehi | Webstore
If you're not up on S&D, they print t-shirts designed by your favourite tattooers and illustrators. I've had some of their shirts for years and they're comfortable and high quality and the designs fucking rule.

I love this piece by Horimomo. Outline with a machine and shaded by tebori
