  • I do want to take out a new mortgage and am. Just not for sweet tats

  • Ha, it's nothing like I imagined either. Was originally gonna be considerably smaller and just a tidied up version of the pic I posted.
    As Pozan was super busy before Xmas he'd not drawn anything yet and as it was booked in after a few drinks just before Xmas I didn't have a consultation.
    As soon as he saw the space available it made sense to go big. As big meant it'd be a swathe of grey inside the blade I have him free reign to do what he wanted. Drew up the hornbeam leaves in about 2mins.
    Needless to say it's a much much better tattoo than I was predicting. Well worth the trek down to Brighton, will def be getting more work from him.

  • Detail pic from Pozan's insta. Sorry, don't know how to imbed. The pic of the full tat on there is waay better than the one I took at home as well...

    As I can't really see it that easily I didn't quite realise the shading was so rad. Well chuffed.

    A lesson in giving as vague a brief as possible to the artist and trusting their judgement...

  • Absolutely Ed, the insta shows it really well - it's a great piece.

  • Just booked a smallish piece with Grace Neutral in April.

  • interesting, been following her since her early days. what you going for?

  • The three daruma heads from Spirited Away. Never had a hand poked tattoo so it will be interesting.

  • @edmundro Loving the billhook tattoo, even though you went for a soft southern billhook... I have a nice Staffordshire pattern in my tool collection, has come in handy hedgelaying a few times! Gets used for splitting kindling more often though.

  • LadyLiz is a yorkshire lass, have considered getting a two handed yorkshire one done as well. I think they're a bit much for hedging with usually. I prefer a devon pattern with less of a hook for work.

    Tat is healing well..

  • that'll be so good!!!! can't wait to see it.

    kola is in japan the same time i am, in a couple of months.... too early to (afford to) add to the leg? or get this:

  • Why get tattoo'd by someone from London while in Japan? Go to Three Tides and get something traditional and awesome.

  • Who should I look at in London to do an old black and white pocket compass?
    Someone that can do beautiful intricate detail in black/white tones

  • Oliver Mackintosh at Frith Street tattoo does some amazing single needle detailed stuff, he'd nail it.

  • So I am going to give Dermalize a go with my upcoming pieces. Now the retail per cut sheets are a lot more expensive compared to a roll.

    Per-cut (15cm x 10cm) - about 90p / sheet
    Roll to cut to same size ^ - about 30p / sheet

    I would probably go through the whole roll eventually, but might be a long while, so anyone up for sharing?

    I am thinking to cut them up in long stripes (like 1m or sth) and post them out to you or we could meet at my work etc. Anyone??

  • Thabks he looks good. now to think about it for another year!

  • This is really nice, I like it as its a bit different.

  • ^did you have both done same time? I wouldn't be able to walk afterwards if it was me...

  • Ahah yes, had both done at the same time. Ride home was not pleasant.

  • I am having one of my thighs done in a month time, about the same size, I have already factored in the cab fare home... what was the pain like? (I know it's different from person to person...)

    Very nice tattoos by the way...

  • Taxi home isn't a bad idea aha,
    As for the pain.... The script was the worst as I hate the small lining needle used. That actually felt like he was using a scalpel lol. Everything else was totally fine and I could talk and carry on as normal. But yeah everyone is different like you said.

    Cheers I'm very happy with them :)

  • counting down to have a tattoo of my childhood best friend (a stuffed toy clown) done by Julia.
