The guy who did this tattoo owns a shop. People pay money to him to do tattoos on them. That makes him a professional tattoo artist.
If he's more "in the know" in the tattoo world than I am because I don't tattoo... so be it. In the immortal words of one of my snarkier friends... "your team!" :D

For me it was achingly painful for two weeks. Cracking, redness. Hooper walked me through the process of healing with his method- "first it's going to look like it's blowing out. Then it's going to look like it's infected. Then it's going to look like it's fading. Then it's healed". It happened spot on per his synopsis.

I shrugged it off after a day or so of being butthurt. If this guy is that big of a choad, I still win at life.

Twin Peaks and Sons of Anarchy just dropped into my instant queue.

Doc Webb- San Diego « Occult Vibrations
Remember this one? Hosted by Peter Fonda. I taped it off "Discovery Sunday" on Discovery channel.

What's great is I've had a few messages from folks who were all "you know, I have a bunch of VHS tapes in storage somewhere"....
I'm encouraging them to convert em to dv, even making lists of stuff they'd need and how to do it- or hell, send them to me and I'll do it.
I just don't want this stuff fading away.

Though we had a brief flirtation with trying to get Fratbros (fratbroz?) to call tattooers "Squids" cause they "fuckin shoot ink, man"... but that never really worked out. Would have loved to send in a bro to one of my friends and have them address him as a Squid. Haha

The Bleeding (2009) - IMDb
The Bleeding:
Surrounded by carnage, slaughter, brutal crashes and total mayhem, Shawn Black is in a race to save the world from pure evil.
co-starring "Katherine von Drachenberg".
The review on IMDB contains this caveat:
"Avoid this film as if it was made from anthrax clothed in a 3-piece suit of the plague, on fire, carrying a machine gun that shot bullets made from herpes"
Looks like it was shot in '09 but is just getting a dvd release.
Hah.

I had seen the original clip before (big fan of the noble badger) so when my girlfriend was laughing her ass of watching it, I couldn't figure out what was so funny. Then she turned the volume up. Honey Badger doesn't give a shit.

Dave: So. What were you thinking about?
Me: Dunno. Maybe a trailer trash pin up girl.
Dave: I thought you wanted a Japanese demon?
Me: That works too. Pick which one you want and draw it up, I'm going to watch a movie.
Dave: Ok.
Haha.

I've been keen on Dusty Neal for the last two weeks or so, absorbing all of the work he's posted on his tumblr.
SWORN TO THE BLACK
When I first saw his feed on Tumblr.... there was a great Christ head AND a Pushead piece. I was sold.

First time I've heard this, but earlier today some peckerwood with shitty squidwork on his arms comes up to me and asks "who you wearin, bro?"
I've never heard that before. He mentioned Gil Montie twice.
He seemed less than impressed with my choices in artists, since none of them were Gil Montie.
This is why I hate going out in shortsleeves.
