Wow. Not what I was expecting to see at all when I opened the thread. VERY nice! VERRY VERY NICE! Excellent choice of artist! (I think I’ve seen at least part of your sleeve on my IG.)

Thanks Turbosatan! Getting in on the first try now. And I like the new colour scheme, easier to read. Pages are still slow loading, but it is a huge improvement.

I have some tattoos done by TattooIsh. He now works out of a private studio in Granna, Jonkoping Sweden. Have a look at his work, maybe you will like his style.

Wlcome! I sure could use a liquid salad. Or a barley sandwich. Whichever is healthiest of course. 😀

Get it wherever you want it. Even if it’s a painful spot you should be able to handle it for a tiny little 2 inch tattoo.

And I got confirmation of my appointment at the show!!! Hova Villasenor out of Roman’s shop in Yucaipa is going to add to my collection of masqueraded ladies. I’ve been following him for a while on IG and I love his style. (In fact I like his stuff better than Roman’s.)

I don’t know who is more excited, him or me!!! When I described what I…[Read more]

Looks good Dan. I didn’t know you had that much bare skin left.

The after pictures definitely look better than the before!

Make reservations for the dinner show at ‘the pink door’ in Seattle!!!! It is down by the market and is a ton of fun. Food is excellent, too!

Thanks guys. I’m VERY happy with it.

But I’m having one of those itchy itchy ITCHY heals. I want to say that I haven’t been as itchy as this before but I know that isn’t true. I have had to sleep with an ice pack to calm the itch for other tattoos. Haven’t needed the ice pack, but this is day 3 of trying not to scratch.

I really really like that second one!! (The first one looks like what I saw in the mirror when I got up last weekend!)

It now takes me 3 tries to access the website. The page comes up for less than a second then is replaced by an Internal Server Error page. So I try again, same thing. On the third try the website is accessible. Has been happening that way for more than a week.

They are exactly that. The skin got irritated during the tattoo and then probably got a little over-moisturized while you were caring for the tattoo. So the pores are blocked. Just keep those areas really really clean and they will go away. Clean the area really well a few times a day and make sure that you rinse ALL of the soap off, and a…[Read more]

Sweet piece! That Carlos can sure do a pretty lady like no one else.

Very nice, have LOTS of fun!

Welcome to the forum!

Seriously Peter … Torres/Paris?
Jealous. Really, really, really jealous.

I will be spending this Friday with Cris Gherman. 😎

Then a day with Hova Villasenor in Yucaipa the same weekend as the Palm Trees and Tattoos convention – it’s not Paris, but it’s a weekend in Palm Springs. And he is really STOKED on the piece! Can’t wait.…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum.

Well, that there is a big, dark blob. I think you’re going to have to lighten it up with some laser before you even try to cover it.

Welcome to the forum. Also, so sorry for your loss.

I have two that come from self portrait photos posted on line by a young photographer in Britain. Before using them I was able to contact her and get her permission to have them used. One of the tattoo artists contacted her afterwards to use some of her other photos for painting references.

But I have others based on ref pics found online (some…[Read more]
