Hi all, Long time posting here (I must post up my latest pieces here). Myself and the better half our currently touring South East Asia for a few months and starting to get the itch for another tattoo... Where we have left to visit is: Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines. Does anyone have any particular shops or artists they could recommend? We hope to make it to Melbourne at the end of the trip to visit friends (finances permitting!) so will definitely be getting work there if I don't get anything I'm Asia. Thanks again, Paddy Sent from my CPH1823 using Tapatalk

Just booked in with Forrest Cavacco (intsa: iamthecobra) in Plymouth MA in June I arrive the week beginning 18th June and have an apt for the 22nd. Will be getting a snake across my stomach/ribs to go in tandem with my chest eagle (a 'Battle Royale'-type scene). Will hopefully get the remainder finished during my time in Boston over the summer. Attached is the current chest piece for reference (by Chris Stuart in Charlotte and Limerick, Ireland).

Thanks folks, can't wait for the trip. Going to be a long few months getting through work knowing what is ahead of us!! @Hands On Yes, Ross is a great man and have sat with him on a couple of decent-sized pieces.

Hi all, Long time since I posted here so I really must update with my latest pieces. Anyway, myself and the better half are taking some time out to do a bit of travelling this year and want to line up some potential tattoo appointments along the way. The current plan is is the following: summer in Boston (have a few shops in mind there), a few weeks in Cuba and Colombia. Back to Ireland for a coupe of weeks and then onto South East Asia; two months touring Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos then a month in Phillipines and a month in Indonesia. We may get in a few other places depending on finances etc. I'd like to get a hand-poked tattoo at some stage but obviously want to be going in eyes wide open and to a good artist. Any my other recommendations for shops/artists along our route? We're mostly into traditional work but not exactly restricted in that sense. Thanks again, folks!

Unfortunately he's gone already. He was only there for a day or two prior to the London convention. Good chance he'll be back next year! Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

So, this turned out way better than I could have expected. Got it finished in two sessions with the second one at Allstar Ink in Limerick, Ireland. Chris Stuart was guesting there for a day prior to the London convention so I was lucky enough to grab the spot. A great experience again. I couldn't speak highly enough of Chris and the atmosphere was enhanced with the liked of Nagle, Peck, Topper, Noble, Arment all working there on the same day. Anyway, I'll let the pic do the talking ? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

I got a piece from Matthias Boettcher when I was there. Was in Lowbrow Tattoo which I'd recommend Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Didn't realise he was in Redemption. Would have tried to get in if I was on the ball! Cheers Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

So here's mine? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Anyone know where/when Chad is guesting in Massachusettes? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Actually just realised I did post this previously [emoji15] Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Took me way too long to post this. Got a pretty nice start on the chest by Chris Stuart in Charlotte back in early June. Hopefully get the rest finished at the Pagoda City convention. Couldn't recommend Chris highly enough. Great experience in the shop. He's since moved to his new place in midtown which looks awesome Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Halfway there by Chris Stuart in Charlotte. Great tattooer, great shop, great experience [emoji2] Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Thank SH, have been living Chris' work for a long time. Hopefully going to be in Charlotte for just under a week so by all means send through some recommendations. Thanks! Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Booker in with Chris Stuart on 1st June. Flying into Charlotte from Dublin on 30/31st May on the way to an extended vacation in Boston. Getting a start on the chest with a traditional eagle - he's done a few super cool ones lately. Can't wait! Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk
