Orangutango

Got started on my ribs with William Yoneyama today, 40+ degrees outside, nowhere better to be than under air conditioning. About 3-4 hours in, should wrap it up in a few weeks.

Got a half rack of ribs started today, about 4 hours total. Let it sit for 8 hours or so after finishing inside the dressing, washed it thoroughly and am now covered in the 'derm. Feels good already, the amount the thin layer dulls the sensitivity of the skin is impressive. Fingers crossed. Will post results in a few days.

Thanks to the tegaderm acolytes on this thread I am now sitting happily, instead of trying unsuccessfully to find a comfortable position!

Great video, thanks for sharing it.

Thanks! I think I'll go with some of the longer narrow ones (25x10cms) to make up the bulk of the area and then patch it in. Can you cut them at all? Assuming the scalpel is sterile? I'm looking at roughly 60x30cms of coverage, but it is a snake so I might be able to get away with some trimming.

I promise to return with experience of my own in a few weeks!

Was wondering how it would go with lots of stretching/compression of the area after you put it on. Sounds like it moves amazingly well with the skin if it can handle knees and elbows though.

Thanks for all the information guys, definitely got me interested to try it out on the upcoming ribs. Was that applied with the knee bent @Dan ?

I've found a great site (independenceaustralia.com) for any of the other Australians on here looking to get some, works out at about $1.20 a sheet (10x12cms) delivered. It's under wound care if you get distracted by all the incontinence aids. ? eBay seemed pretty expensive for those not in the US/UK.

Anybody tried any of the other adhesive film brands, seems like there is a few.

Booked in a few early February sessions with William Yoneyama to punish my ribs today, no prizes for guessing which animal I'm going with.

Saw the 'Burn' in the first flick and knew it was Totem, your arm looks awesome. Great intro!

Got to catch up with Austin Maples when he was back in town @ third eye, he squeezed me in for this fun little gap filler, if you are in SF he's at idle hands.

Sure is @sighthound , The first episode is probably one of the earliest exposures to the idea of tattoo's for me, I was seven when it first aired!

We were gonna try and fit in a snake in a similar gap on the other leg but went for something I've wanted for a while instead, when the snake didn't want to fit:

Been on a post roadtrip saving kick, but managed to sneak in this little jammer from Adrian Hing the other week. Looks a bit warped in the flick.

and @Mark Bee, so nice, gin and gta definitely earned!

fryminister, a bunch of random travelling spam, stupid things I see and bacon. Don't really post tattoos on there much.

I got this from Steve Byrne yesterday.

So good. Made me wonder who has tattooed the most LSTer's, Steve would have to be a contender based on the last few months alone.

Good to know I'm not the only one!

Had a quick look through this recently, cat sheets were undoubtably the weirdest of the lot.

My Girlfriend asked me what happens when I 'fill up' and I immediately was concerned and had to do a mental stocktake of space left and options, then I thought of this thread.

I also have an occasional irrational fear of loosing a limb in some random accident and have wondered which one I would prefer based on the tattoos on it alone.

Yep, Chris O'Donnell.

photo stolen from his blog, still pretty red.

Joined the tiger club today thanks to Chris O'Donnell, pics to follow. So fast and so great, incredible experience.

Went to Fallingwater today, been on the list for a while, easily one of the highlights of the trip so far. Also congrats on the marriage's, much more awesome than visiting a house!

Congrats @Shaun1105 I cannot speak highly enough about his work, he is definitely worth a visit if you have the time/money to. Maybe my Steve Byrne bicep can win July! :D

So funny you mentioned the fake Parthenon @semele , We came across it by accident the other day in Nashville, in much better condition than the original! (If you can get past the colour.)
