Julio Avila

That was HIM in green street hooligans and children of men?!!

I blame it all on Garth Brooks

On the other hand, I did get to listen to an interview with Loretta lyn on NPR. They played her stuff and also some duets with Conway twitty.

Hogg me too. Ugh

I think there are probably like 4 dudes doing a good job aka enough black. The rest fail at making a long lasting readable tattoo.

Tuffest tattoos I've seen...the first is in one of the tattoo times. Is soo crudly done. I believe it's a hanging head that says "hooray for me. Fuck you".

The second, imnot sure where I saw it. But it was a panther slapped on the throat. It was an old tattoo. They just took the crawling panther and put it sideways on this dudes throat. It looked so tuff.

Mostly I think this topics for broads.

I think Driscoll has r2d2 and c3po on his knuckles

Oh and that's not the hand I was talking about. GTC's hands have all crosses I believe. Each one different and amazing

That Mexican calendar book is really good. Bought a copy at some museum in Chicago.

Henry, if you go to George yepes website, he sells prints of his paintings. You can also have him paint on top of one of the prints, customizing it by the artist.

He's painted la pistola y el corazon several times. I believe the first version was burned in Sean penns trailer or something like that. I've seen a second version in San Francisco at the de young gallery. It's part of cheech marin's collection. That one was incredible!!! It had more of the bodies showing. It was truly larger than life and one of those paintings that made me feel insignificant. Got the same feeling with that helguera painting. That painting was ally bigger than I thought it would be

Yes I cleaned up wolf piss. It was bright yellow green. Almost gatorade-ish. The smell was very vinegary.

One last thing.... You ever watch Sanford and son? Well towards the end Sanford had a neighbor named Julio. Julio had a goat. Ding dong bossman thought it was only fitting that I should have one too. I show up to work and he's already tattooing and goes," there's something for you in the back". Now he lived on a hobby farm, but I lived in the CITY!!! He made me take the Pygmy goat home for one night before I told dude there's no way I could keep it. Poor fucker was in the trunk of my Honda civic hatchback for few hours. Gave him back the next day. The wolf probably ate him.

Oh and they named him for me. " guacamole". Sometimes I hAted being the only beaner in the shop

I like good time charlies knuckles. He's got crosses done by a bunch of the dudes at jack rudys shop, I believe

So can I buy a shirt with the tits on it?

That's a Jesus helguera. It's fucking beautiful!!! I wanna steal it. That one and the two George yepes paintings.

And just about everything else

a few more shots.

sorry some of the photos are on the side. they were taken with my phone

here are some shots of the chicago exhibit

theyll have the intervention as jax is rollin the condom on his donger

i wish that was him.

that guy at least has better lookin sluts hanging out with him

I've had a crush on peg bundy since the 7th grade. Not Kelly bundy, PEG bundy.

I really wanted to hate this show but dammit, it's really good!

Huge fan of Ron Perlman, katey , and that Irish dude with the crazy scars. Plus the story line is good too.

And jax and his sister are totally gonna bone.

A couple whopper jrs with cheese and a dr pepper.

After, a really good meal, a beer, and a nap

robin, i think its a damned stupid idea to keep a wild animal as a pet of any sorts. unless you are roy boy, that is

MsRad...

The kook had an actual wolf as a pet. He lived on a small hobby farm. He kept the wolf there and he'd occasionally get loose and eat one of the chickens or ducks.

I was in the back making needles and heard the door chimes. I went out to help the customer. I get out to the counter and the wolf was standing right in front of me. It was lookin in my direction but it almost looked like he was looking "through" me. It was an eerie ass feeling. I froze in my tracks and then see bossman and his trashy ass girl in the window laughing at me. The wolf then commenced to mark his territory all over the shop. Wolf piss smells sooooo fucking bad!

He said he was living in Denver at the time and scoped out a wolf mother for a while. She had pups and went out looking for food. He took his chance and went into the den and took a pup. At least that's the story he told me.

Don't know if any of you have ever been close to a wolf but they are intense animals. Supper tall and extremely intelligent. It did not feel good to be that close to ol Four Socks

i guess its possible. difficult to tell without seeing the existing tattoo along with its placement on your arm. if its faded, you are going to want to have it redone to match everything else.

if you are doing all zodiacs, you could try putting the little dots and lines inside the bull to show its a constellation. just an idea

daaaaaaaaaaaaamn!

scott wins.

i was only scared with a real live wolf standing 4 feet from me. not actually stabbed with used needles.

Damn dean!!!!

My shit looks beautiful

I'd like to thank the academy, my parents for letting me be the weird kid I was, huck Spaulding for the red and mr Mario Desa for being an all around good gent.

Had the pleasure of working with letter master Dave Gibson for a short time. It was awesome seeing him lay out names. It was also awesome to see that even he got frustrated sometimes laying stuff out.

Cool old dude to talk to. ALWAYS has stories to tell

them lettering book are a "stepping stone" to what can be done. the truth is, if you trace the letters directly out of the book, it totally shows. there is nothing like hand drawn letters.

even when i do OE letters, ill tape tracing paper over the original style and then redraw my version of them directly on top. hand drawn letters have much more soul in them than any traced letters will ever have.
