9Years

I don't see anyone beating that Chad K/Jondix back, but I'll submit one of my skulls for the fun of it. I like the themed contests, at the very least they can serve as a good source of inspiration for people looking to get a certain thing tattooed.
Anyways, here's my skull from Steve Byrne at ROA from a few years ago. Don't really have a healed photo, but found one that kinda works. It's loosely based off of a anti-bolshevik German propaganda poster I saw at the Harry Ransom center in Austin while I was in Austin earlier that day. 

 

Finished this just in time! Chad Koeplinger and Jondix.

The winner of Tattoo of the month November is @havetsherre with this insanely awesome panther tattoo by Steve Byrne. Congrats!! 
The next contest will be announced on the 1st of December! (also, the polling will be much easier, I promise) 
Big thanks to everyone who contributed this month!!
 

Tim Lehi next month. 

@suburbanxcore Yes i do i've only got 5 hrs done so far, got a bunch to go still i think. Brian is fast, you should definitely get tattooed by him, he's awesome. But here is a current progress pic kinda fresh got tattooed a couple weeks back.

Finally healed. By Jersh tattoos in Dallas:

haha jokes jokes

I haven't posted anything in a long time but this is a tattoo I got in October by Scott Sylvia. I plan on booking another appointment with him on Thursday. I'll be sure to post pics. I think I attached the pictures correctly. Let me know if you see it! Thank you all for looking. 

Here's my panther done by Chad Koeplinger a little over an year ago! Alreadu scarred.
 
Done in like 30-40 minutes!

Third try, sorry to clog the thread with broken images.  Jay Thurley, made in Denver a year ago

YES! Here's mine from Theo Mindell, Spider Murphy's tattoo, healed:

@GlaryMilberg LOVE that locust! Dan's yokai are the coolest. 

One day...he's on my list. I swear almost everything I see from him totally floors me. 
I live in California, so the travel will likely be a bit more than $55 ;)

Here are crappy pics of my left arm. Through a mirror no less. Jason Scott did all the background work and left the perfect amount of negative space in my opinion. All the little blue flowers and vine swirl stuff was done by him.  I love what he did. 

I was definitely unable to contain myself the last two months. 
-Dan Sinnes scribbled on this locust yokai at Temple. I'm so pumped on how it came together. He posted a photo of the draw on for hilarity.  
-Valerie Vargas did the Oni/Gorilla fight on my arm at the Bay convention. I liked the idea of the eastern/western imagery clashing. My right arm is all american traditional patchwork and my left is semi-american traditional style patchwork with Japanese imagery. This has already healed ridiculously well.
Henning did the namakubi at the Bay convention. I had been waiting a few years to catch Henning at the convention when he had space from his larger works and this was the year. This is absolutely one of my favorite tattoo's. My girlfriend is definitely not as pumped. I'm blown away by his skill and kindness. 
 

This has got to be one of my favourite sleeves here at LST .

So many amazing panthers! My personal favorite is Theo's on @9years with everyone else as a close second. And way to go for the panther win @Rob I with multiple panthers. I love seeing various interpretations. Thanks to all who have posted. Love seeing consolidated collections on a theme.

@guitguy fantastic. Love that one!
@9Years thanks!!!  Your arm is sick!
@bongsau totally what drew me to the design. I like my panthers all jacked up!  Yours RULES

Well, I guess I'll throw my "cat" in the ring (groannnn haha). 
I'm very happy with how this turned out. The pics are of the fresh tattoo. It has healed beautifully. Done a month ago by Franz Stefanik at the Okey Doke in Toronto, ON. 
I'll toss in the before and after pics too as it was a cover up of a sad old bird. 32 years old to be exact. And, I love the line work !
