The lettering is designed by my crew mate and mentor, Mr. Totem and tattooed by my sensei Horitoyo from Kofu Yamanashi Japan.

Hello folks! I'm Abyss, I live in ATL Ga. I've been reading on this forum for a while now and thought to myself it's about damn time to register and join the community lol. I am always hesitant about forums because I just don't know what to write about. But I figure, I could write about the tattoos on me for this forum.
I recently just got tattoo by Mr. Rubendall in August. We did 4 sessions (2 consecutive follow by 2 weeks of healing and another 2 consecutive) total so far. I have to fly back to NY in November to finish it up with 1 more session. Here's some flicks off the outline and shading. I actually have color on the dragon, I just haven't taken a picture of it yet. I will take some picture soon and post it! Let me know what yall think! Thanks!

I think Brandon bond is a wee bit over rated. Excellent tattooer but a bit meh

There's plenty of other folks doing solid tattooing in atl.

I got on Grime's list. My appointment's in 3 years. o__O I want a samurai skull hanya but I might change my mind when it's closer to the appointment date. haha. =P

Hey guys I'm David!
I've been gettin tattoos since I was 18 but started my traditional sleeve last year at Live Free Tattoo in Atlanta. This is a new shop owned by Jason Kelly who use to work at memorial tattoo. Lots of talent at this shop. Miguel Olascuaga, Brett Pundt, "Boxcar" Craig Chazen, Alan Berg and Cori James.
Here's some of the work Jason has done on my arm:

Might as well book with Grime now too, I should have enough money saved come 3 years from now...
I have an appointment with Tim Lehi in a couple weeks to do something on my shoulder. I only have a general idea of what I want and am probably gonna let him do his thing with most of it. He's one of my favorite (possibly my #1) artists/tattooers, so I'm sure I will not be disappointed.

Thank you!! I am aware i could've googled him but i thought to myself "hey, might as well ask since i replied to your post anyways". Hope that didn't bother you. Some people are very tightly wound here.

What's up man? Grime is base in San Fran. This is his shop's website. He post some of his work on the site but most of them are on his fan page. I think it's called Black Claw or something.

Sweet! I got a samurai skull from Grime a couple years back. You can check it out in my gallery if you haven't already seen it.

Yup. Hopefully, I can get in earlier if people make cancellation on him. =DDD

Awesome first post!
I'd love to pick your brains, decided to post here instead of PM, so that others can benefit from reading your experience too :
1. You did 2 sessions on <2 weeks off> 2 sessions - How long did you go each session? - I plan on doing my back but have an appointment for 18/19 and then the 25. Any tips?
2. The hori title indicates a master, so was a machine no used to create your piece? (sorry if I missed that).
I plan on going for a dragon and tiger with some traditional japanese elements as a back piece. Undecided on a cover-up or not : http://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/attachments/initiation/9669d1383639533-stick-some-shrimp-barby-photo-5-11-13-16-13-17.jpg
