NERD RAGE

I can't speak to the quality of the information on this site, but I've certainly enjoyed reading through it (and I think first discovered it through this forum)

Japanese Buddhism - Apsaras, Celestial Beings, Heavenly Maidens & Musicians, Tennyo, Karyobinga.

I finally got the catalog. I was surprised by how big and awesome it is for $20 and my back feels so empty now. And yeah, that Shige skull on that one woman blew my mind.

I didn't realize it was only $20, so thanks for the heads up. Just ordered.

For a short period of time as a young lad I worked at what used to be a carry-out greasy spoon where that Subway is now. Memories.

That wasn't one of the Crazy John's locations, was it?

Trojan.Penisprinter variants will be pretty funny, though.

Finished up this piece with Martin Lacasse at Olde City Tattoo in Philly. Based off of a Yoshitoshi print from 28 Famous Murders With Verse. Couldn't be happier.

Love it. Love everything about it. Best thread on the internet.

I dig yours too @Ragen. You guys are making me jealous.

That is fantastic, @Cork.

and best ink fails again... because a tattooer tattooed Ganesh on a woman's arm but called it a "buddhist elephant". WTF

I was thinking the same thing. Ganesh recently converted, I guess.

Holy shit, thanks for the heads up. I wanted to play it and a few other games but I want to pay for as little as possible.

I love this.

now we have photoshop, so who's to say that an artist couldn't alter a picture of a tattoo a tiny bit before uploading it to instagram...

Now I want people to start photoshoping subtle penises into the photos they put on line so that they get copied.

That looks awesome. How old was the original?

$50? My boy can do it for $7 and some whip-its. You should hit him up.

I've gotten sick after my last three sessions, but I have a toddler in daycare so we've been dealing with colds in my household a lot in the last year so obviously that could just be coincidence.

Panthgle from James Yocum

It's all good but this one I love the most for whatever reason.

In progress by Tomo at Yellow Blaze.

Painful to say the least, but it's taking shape after 4 sessions.

Home tomorrow!

From his Instagram.

And Holy Moly! That's awesome.

Kitchen laser removal is the obvious response to kitchen tattoos. I eagerly look forward to the days of kitchen LASIK.

Another session down with Dana, picture stolen from his IG of course.. Next session is color! The fundoshi massacre.

That looks amazing. It's stuff like this that made me think tattoos were awesome in the first place.

Awesome stuff

That is amazing. Thanks for sharing all the photos. And your coverage makes your naked ass look clothed so I can look at it at work!

Here is my Backpiece from @Stewart Robson started in London at FST November 2011. Did sessions in New York at Saved, SOG 2012, FST again in March and July 2013 and complete this past weekend at SOG. So between 2 continents, 3 cities and 60 isn hours this part of the journey is over. The piece is in the process of extending down the thighs and that will be completed at the end of November. Then we begin the front, have the subject picked out and stewart will be taking traces of me today.

Love that Kuniyoshi print, love that back piece.

Latest tattoo. Got this skull morph from Cory Rogers last weekend. He does more than make machines!

Saw that on SA this morning (where I also have a different username). That's really cool.

Got these two pieces at the London convention, Fudo-she-o by Claudia De Sabe (Black Garden Tattoo), Panther-reaper by Bart Bingham (New York Adorned)

As you can see I'm very happy with the trip to the convention this year! :D

When I saw that She-Fudo on instagram I said "Holy Shit" out loud. I absolutely love that. It's crazy how much I see on instagram that is tattooed on people posting here.

Oh, and the panther is awesome, too.

I have to ask then, how do you now feel about Oliver Peck and Chris Nunez, Forrest, Tony Hundahl, etc.?

Everyone on Rubendall's wait list should cancel in protest. Spread the word.

I'm sure it helped that his brother was already working on a body suit. Still though, I wish I had done the same.

Tried to open it but it won't. Am on the iPhone. Will try when I get home. And thanks

Ok.

Although jackass is long gone, here is a direct link to a photo of the Jojo Ackerman backpiece: http://distilleryimage9.s3.amazonaws.com/a2ac4ad0c32011e2842e22000a1fb2cc_7.jpg
