introspect

Its a private video

So near, and yet so far

What a great video, and a fantastic woman. It would be an honour to be tattooed by her.

Just came across this video on State of Grace and thought I'd share it. Some nice interviews with the artists.

I started following Diego Azaldegui on Instagram entirely based on your arms, Introspect, so thanks for that. They look great.

Thanks man, glad you like them. Diego posts some great photos of his work on Instagram so I hope you enjoy them, he's a great artist.

Saw this this morning and thought it was cool. Justin Hartman at urban art Tattoo in Mesa, AZ I believe:

Damn, that's so cool! Really beautiful

Hi and welcome @introspect Your arms look great! Is Diego going to do your back as well?

@Iwar Thanks man. Yeah Diego will be doing my back too.

Gorgeous work! Reminds me a little of Miyazo and Rob Admiraal. Where's that bonji in your avatar?

Funny you should say that as I used some pictures of Rob's work as reference when I had my consultation for my koi sleeve

I can only speak for myself, but the shading on my back, so far, was way less painful than the outline.

Yeah that's what I figured. It was certainly that way on my arms.

I'm hopefully starting my Japanese back piece fairly soon and I'm kind of nervous about the pain involved. Especially the outlining, I REALLY hate outlining. I'm hoping that once that's done the shading will be a little easier.. I hope!

I frickin love this back piece by Diego Azaldegui. Hoping to get something similar myself soon.

Beautiful Kannon back piece by Horiyoshi III

Thanks man! Got the bonji done on my chest about 6 weeks ago

Hi, I've been a tattoo enthusiast for a few years now and I've thoroughly enjoyed watching the artist interviews on this site so thought I'd finally sign up to the forum. I'm a big fan of Japanese tattooing and have 2 three quarter sleeves done by Diego Azaldegui in Leeds UK.

I'm currently deciding on what I want for my back piece and hoping to get started on that soon.
