Tattoos

I was jealous that the rival college from UAL did that for their show. Really pissed all over ours.

Also, cannot decide whether to get actual 'el barto' graffiti or 'bartman' from the bongo comics (maybe too timely to get Radioactive Man himself) or so. I was keen to get the mini Krusty from the SuperFunhouse SNES game but hmm.

Also this pinball machine is the Italy-only version with nudie bits, I'd love to get the pinup on the fish to fill a gap on my legs.

Would there be any walk in places open today after, say 7pm?
Just a simple, small flash needed

How hurty is crease of front of the arm? I think I already know the answer

I cried. Genuinely horrible. Although it was by Chad Koeplinger and he isn't known for being gentle

Do you mean the elbow?

Inner Elbow? It's fine.
Have an elaborate hinge in mine, by Dom Holmes (notoriously slow and methodical) didn't find it that bad at all.

Inner elbow. Indeed! Cheers

((ante-)cubital fossa)
It's one of the less hurty places to be jabbed by a needle (why we love to use it), but I'm not sure about the lengthy process of tattooing.

I have a detailed mandala in one elbow ditch. It was fine pain wise. The healing process took a bit longer as a few points along the crease took a bit longer to heal.

Anyone know of anywhere planning a Friday 13th flash day next week?

Thinking of getting an inverted 13, race number style, on the 13th. Though I am in Copenhagen so fear this may cost 1 million krone.

Dharma tattoo are doing £50 flash in the evening

Scratch line tattoo in Kentish town are doing £13 flash. Have to pay in scratch cards..

Will check out Scratch line as KT is on my commute home.

I got a TCB with lightning bolt that looks like a 13 a l year or so ago on Fri 13, it was also my 13th tattoo.

It's my birthday on the 13th, was gonna get something proper but am skint, so gonna get drunk and do stick and poke instead, always a good idea.

You'll need to be there early doors.

Got there at noon last year and got my name on the list for being tattooed at 4pm

Hmm, I work in Archway, might pop down at 12 ish and hope I can get a later than 5 slot.
Don't want to be a dick and be demanding over a awesome deal.

I've been eyeing up a design for my first tattoo however no idea of any decent london artists that could help out.

Artists that can do geometric designs into realistic? Looking for similar to the attached.

And as this is my first tattoo idea, any pointers on placement / prices / artists are all appreciated.

Cheers all.

Wouldn't recommend Fri 13th tattoos. I have one, a 13 on my foot. It's shit, all shaded in the wrong places and stuff. It was done by an artist that I'd previously been tattooed by and have again since and his work is normally top notch.

TLDR - Friday 13th = every cunt wants tattooed for cheap so be prepared for sloppy work.

In other news, ankle/lower leg, fuck me that hurts. Not so much getting it done but the next day (today).
I struggled to put weight on the leg when I got up this morning and its still pretty painful to walk on. Trousers brushing against it is a cunt.

Who do I go see about an atomic era billboard boomerang b&w line drawing type thing?
Something along these lines but with own text. Probably a 10min job on ps for someone who knows their shizzle. Think Ren and stimpy backgrounds, neon diner signs and 50’s advertising fonts.
