Tattoos

Looks great ed.

A little early Kermit on the collar bone and added a beauty spot to change the other Kermit’s evil twin Constantine . Both done at Frontier, Cardiff

Quality indeed 👌

Nice! Bet it's going to look great when it's all properly healed.

Very fun.

It's been long enough since I got a big tattoo that I've forgotten what a bastard it is and I'm contemplating getting something booked in. Someone talk me out of getting something massive on my chest/stomach by Scott Move.

Do it!

I have forgotten how much I hated getting my knee done and all this talk has convinced me time is right to get the other one done.

Too paunchy for chest / stomach myself, so need to live vicariously for those spots.

😃

Yeah I've lost a bit of weight this year so going to get in there before I inevitably put the chub back on and get too self conscious, haha.

Not a great photo but I managed to squeeze in a very quick banger from Younes at Brabo's Hand in Antwerp yesterday, great dude and a sick shop

Love it. Have admired Younes and others for years, always waiting for a London visit!

Little fun one me and my sister got matching Don’t Panic in each others handwriting. We both have HHGTTG memorised thanks to long car rides as kids. Wish i wanted more little bangers like this. Trying to work out what to do with my legs now my knees are a no go.

in each others handwriting

This is amazing. I love that personalised touch.

Inner wrist seems hard to tattoo as I now find out.

Hardly any ink taken up.

I guess I'm not going deep enough, through fear of puncturing a vital.

It's the only part of me that has no fat.

The only tattoo I have which healed terribly is on my inner wrist/lower forearm.

Every time

My parents allowing me to use fun transfer tattoos as a kid is why I'm now covered in tattoos. Sorry Mum, your fault.

Petunia was the reason for me.

30-odd years ago I said I wanted a Spider-Man tattoo, I was maybe 5. My grandfather took a biro out the drawer and grabbed my wrist. Then, in the middle of the back of my hand he drew a little spider.

“Ow that hurts!” As he pushed the pen hard on my hand.

“Tattoos hurt!”

Thanks for preparing me grandad.

Changed to a smaller needle and got more of a pop.

Doesn't look as bad (to me at least) now it's calmed down a bit. The lower half of the circle needs shading but I'll leave that for a while. Will stick to fleshy bits in future.

First time below the knee in like ten years and just a little gap fill.

Love the birds.

When I go away on bike holidays, I try to get a tattoo. Taken from a Tool tour poster and fits nice in the gap. Done in Albufeira, Portugal. I like it.

I think the time is right for a knee tattoo.
(as I type that I flashed back to when I vowed never to get my other knee done)

Thinking Tyrannosaur, aka Knee-Rex.
Early doors yet, need to speak to my friendly neighbourhood tattooist (he will be well up for it)
