sighthound

Thanks so much, guys. I'm so honored to have this on me and it's probably my favorite tattoo on myself (so far). Can't really go wrong with Chad in my opinion. :)

I was supposed to be tattooed by Rich Hadley this Thursday but he had to cancel his trip to Oslo. I feel so empty right now :(

Got this from Chad Koeplinger last night in DC. Sorry the pics are shitty, it's still really swollen and bruised.

Prettyyyyyyyyy pumped about this one, not gonna lie. Yesterday:

My thigh feels like a wobbly hot water bottle today, and I don't even care. :o

awesome stuff. Cool format they have going for it. I've always loved that Gogue piece.

Now I think I want an exploding brain tattoo. It'll be so next level when they ask what it means...

Pharaoh's Horses by Sheila Marcello @ Electric Tattoo in Asbury Park
they had a traditional flash weekend event @ the shop
as I was getting tattooed by Sheila I was a few feet away from Bert Krak and Robert Ryan doing pieces
there was many other big names there as well - place was packed
seeing Bert up close I couldnt believe how big the guy is - he looks like he could suit up for the NY Giants if he wanted
very cool vibe at this shop though I would say I prefer less of a crowd
pic is shiny - meh

my question is, how did we get to post #13 of this thread with no photos or even a single request for a photo. all these words are gettin' me down! i don't have any work from him, but i've admired it for some time. here a few for our viewing pleasure. I'm pretty sure these will all age alright.

ah its a cool topic i think
i generally like showing off some tattoos
i wear shorts alot except a few winter months
and i have good coverage on my legs
of course once i go forearm in august it'll be game on even at work
i enjoy talking about tattoos
but still get suprised by how rude some folks can be
like last week i was at a doctors office
and this guy stares down my my tiki tattoo
then he says "too dark - needs more color"
I stared back - didnt say a word - then when back to watching the tv
he couldnt give up of course and continued to trash talk his sons tattoos
to which i said - "hey - different styles for different people man"
thankfully he was called away to see the doc :)

Had some work done Friday 07-17 :cool: Getting there !!

I'll admit, I'm not aware of that many UK artists even though I love the shit out of a lot of the stuff that's been coming out of Europe in general. Maybe now I can add some more names to the list.
@Joe Shit wow, nice find - his stuff is amazing.

Got this from Greg Christian at Tattoo Faction about a month ago

and these from Tomas Garcia at Old Soul last weekend.

I used to complain about not being in a great tattoo city like NYC, but being a 2 hour drive from cleveland and pittsburgh isn't really too bad.

Me and my girlfriend got tattooed yesterday by Marcus Kuhn while he's guesting in Paris at Laura Satana's shop!

timely topic - 18 tattoos in and i'm finally going forearm in august - working in a primary school i have definitely given it alot of thought but i too am at the stage where i dont care if it compromises me or changes peoples opinions of me - i wear short sleeves at work and intend to continue this year - other staff show their tattoos but only one other person has a small forearm tatt - other than that its leg pieces or back of neck, etc
anyway - i am looking forward to it

If you are annoyed by the these articles, avoid reposting them etc.
Spreading them around/clicking the links etc is what gives them power.

Fort Collins was a cool little town. Curtis blazed through our crab-turtle-Ray so I had a ton of time to cruise around.

Added some color. Quick session. Background in 2 weeks

Not this forum's cup o' tea, but here is my foot tattoo done by Matt Jordan from New Zealand. This tattoo was done while filming for an upcoming episode of SullenTV's "Tattoo Collector"

I also got some more work on my back by Jess Yen at Ink n Iron but we didn't get pictures so I'll take some in a few days

^ Damn, that's a beauty. Can Paul Dobleman do no wrong? Every piece I've seen by him is flawless.
Thanks for posting awesome stuff on the last couple pages so I can live vicariously through you guys. :D My next tattoo is scheduled for July 31st and it can't get here soon enough.

Finished up my arm with Grez last month. Here are some healed shots (that I also just put in the contest thread).

Got a namakubi done at a local shop. Sovereign Arms Tattoo in GR, MI. Getting tattooed around the shin hurts a lot more than I thought it would. Got a little shaky..
