    @Graeme, @MadeIndelible, I have been lucky enough to have gotten all of my work done at CTC, mostly cause it was the only game in town when I was a shorty. Fortunately, my sons have pretty much shined-on the local scratch-n-gouge parlors and made a point of going there as well. Nick has gone out of his way to accomodate our schedules-it's a 90 mile drive-and to make sure everything about the experience is good.
    We typically get tattoos as a family thing, the next biggie will be my youngest son's 18th this coming month...he has his appointment booked and a design drawn-up!

    My latest, another torch. Done by Xam at The Family Business in London, last Monday. Healing up pretty good. Pic is fresh, as you can tell from the bloody paper towels!

    the type of shop names I think don't work are names that sound like nothing good is gonna happen, examples; Insane ,Smoked ,Deviant,Chaos,etc.These kind of names just dont give me the feeling of comfort. A friend owns Safe Voyage Tattoo in Baton Rouge, Isnt that a comforting name.

    Thanks for the kind words, guys! I am so, so stoked on it. I think Ron does just about the best torches I have ever seen, and I spent a looooong time obsessing over wanting one. I am over the moon with what I ended up with! Glad you guys think it's cool too. :)

    I don't really celebrate, but at a secret santa exchange with some friends I ended up with a Grindcore House travel mug, coffee mug and a $20 starbucks gift card - of all the gifts given / received, I couldn't have been happier, as I'm known amongst my friends as the coffee nazi.
    Unexpectedly, a friend also got me a bag of Black Cat coffee beans.

    I'm going Friday for sure. My next contract is going to be in a TINY town about an hour and some from Austin.
    I may trek out to San Angelo too but it'll be a bit of a drive so I'm on the fence about that one.
    I don't know a soul in Austin and would love to meet up.

    Here is a wolf head that Ron Wells did for me last night at Congress St Tattoo, in Portsmouth, NH. Not sure if you can tell by the pics, but it's on my right forearm, up close to the elbow. LOVE IT! Great experience, Ron is an awesome dude.
    Also had the pleasure of meeting @Graeme, and @Pugilist, who drove down from Canada for an appt with Ron as well. Pugilist got something amazing, but i won't divulge as I haven't seen her post a pic here yet.. but I did see it on instagram and it is completely and totally sick.

    true to iphone form, the pics are pointing the wrong way, which is annoying as can be.

    Thanks for your comments! I'm very excited with the piece. I forgot to include another part of my experience that I think you all would appreciate...
    So when I was going crazy with anticipation waiting to see a drawing for the piece and checking my email a billion times a day, Eddy sends an email saying that his "old friend Dan Higgs" said "whoa" three times in a row when he saw the drawing and that that was a very good omen. And then my head almost exploded ;)

    After 14 sessions spanning 15 months, I'm thrilled to say that my back piece--courtesy of Jay Cavna--is finished. It's a rooster/boar/snake battle royale with peonies. We just wrapped it up a few hours ago. I couldn't be happier with it and am blown away by Jay's skill and commitment to his work.
    Here's the pic.

    Look what I just stumbled over!
    FST: On the Shoulders of Giants is a documentary film, currently in production by Stewart Robson, a tattooer at Frith Street Tattoo (FST) in London.
    This project is expected to be completed in late 2013.
    Shooting started in August 2012.
    Stewart has interviewed his friends and colleagues, some of them world-renown in tattoo circles but all of them have worked in the cramped infamous basement shop in the heart of London’s seedy soho district, to share this portrait of one of the most interesting, vibrant and influential modern tattoo shops.
    FST: On the Shoulders of Giants
    There's a bunch on cool teasers from the different interviews on the blog too. I'm super stoked for this to come out!
    You gotta share stuff like this with us @Stewart Robson

    This was great by the way! (Also by Stewart)

    We have no intentions of selling others artwork. Minus an upcoming feature we'll be offering but that is grounded in respect for tattooing and tattooers that Scott will be heading....can't say too much yet.

    I just thought I would share this story here. Cassandra and her now husband are very good friends of mine as well as clients of the tattoo shop and as big of tattoo enthusiasts as I know of. I have known about this incident since about the time it happened and talked to her about it, but never really pried for details. I guess my point is I just want to say I think it's very brave of her to come forward in this manner and to realize she is the victim in this scenario and hopefully give other women courage to speak up in similar situations.
    If you feel compelled to, please feel free to click over and sign this petition. If not please at least read the story.

    Now, this isn't strictly speaking a serious entry, I just wanted to note how far this contest has come in the last year. Some truly outstanding work being displayed here! Congrats to all for the effort of both tattooer and tattooee in getting them! Thanks to all for sharing your pix, and thanks to Lochlan and the team here for making this site a must-see every day.
