Not bad but colours are somewhat whack. Still prefer Ron Henry Wells

They’re well good, check jaytats.ebs as well in the same line

Booked in for end of September (Tiggy, the artist was booked out until the start of summer and I can't be fucked healing a big tattoo in warm weather).
Getting another lemur on the other side of my right arm.
Gonna be a red ruffed one this time.

I'm debating getting my other knee done.
It's been about a year since my other one was finished and have forgotten how uncomfortable it was to get done.

Whilst we are pimping artists we like https://www.instagram.com/kodeart/
Kodie did a couple of mine (dinosaurs and bear on the knee) and can highly recommend.

Thanks, a mate mentioned Vagabonds the other day.

Knees sound brutal.
I've had either side of elbow done so far and inside was absolutely fine, outside was pretty ouch though.

Prior to the knee I found the inner elbow (funny bone area) to be awful.
Elbone, fine, outer no worries, even the ditch wasn't bad, but that funny bone was killer.

Knee swelled up pretty fast and the constant over and over and over got too much for me, think I did about 3 hours first session, less for the second (but finished)

I currently still have plenty of arm space before I go for the legs.
(arms is better value for money as I never get my legs out so no one would see them anyway).
Knees must be agony for heeling too.

Yeah we’re sound man hhahaha everyone’s welcome for a coffee

Getting my knee done was very very shit. The healing process wasn't too bad though! A bit swollen but not ridiculous, I was back to cycling for 8 hours a day 2 days later and it was fine.

Anyone know a good tattooist in Glasgow I can check out/follow?

Yeah, knee was no fun - very swollen and kind of ouchy just below from what I remember. Couldn't stop twitching either so felt like a dick for sitting so badly.

Just got booked in with Steve Byrne while he's over at Cult Classic in September - kind of jumped on it before figuring out what I wanted so still thinking but he's definitely someone I've wanted something by for a bit.

And because pictures are fun, got this by Andrea Furci a little while back...

This is sick!

“kind of jumped on it before figuring out what I wanted” – 90% of my tattoos I’ve decided on the day. The other 10% are my least favourite

Depends what you want but I like some of what Ross Shields is doing at the minute. It's all quite unusual though.

I liked unusual, he don't have an instagram account?

There you go!

Newsbeat is such barrel bottom sludge. I shudder to think that the content on there is supposedly aimed at developing minds.

Is this one supposed to teach about the importance of proof reading?

I was scolded in another thread for referring to said British institution as no better than clickbait. Months later it has actually got worse not better than when I'd made the remark. Terrible reporting.

Interesting gold on black tattoo work-

A new trend with a bunch of shitty copies coming soon.

I don’t know what you call it but I love this style. I knew a triad in Malaysia who was covered in similar to this but with more Buddhist symbology and a lot of red ink.
