Tattoos

It's actually from Hitchhiker's.

And its right in Base 13.
(interview with Douglas Adams revealed it purely coincidental)

Wut? There's no maths in that, just the woman with 3 boobs and JonnyCab.

base 10: (9 * 1) + (6 * 1) = 52
base 13: (4 * 13) + (2 * 1) = 52

hhahahahaha didn't knew this

after an astronaut on back of lower arm, have fancied the one off the old Orb cover for some time - artist said dot work would be a no no, wouldn't translate, couldn't do the kinda blown up graphic pixels as there would be too much black......

she suggested she could put some dot in this - how do I get her to try and amalgamate the two. i.e same design but standing like the Orb cover? just ask her? 'amalgamate the two'?!

(this does not answer your question, I just like the astronaut)

^ that is ace it has to be said!

..it's one of these huge murals that emerged from that "streetart" craze in berlin, 5-6 years ago.
Yea it's pretty bold, you see it from the subway (which is going above ground in that area) a bit more at "eye level", pretty nice.

Kreuzberg no?

Is the bottom image her own? I'm much more into the idea of finding a tattooer I like and asking them to design something, pretty sure it'll always be a better tattoo in the end. There must be so many artists who could do a killer astronaut design in black.

Kreuzberg no?

Yes, close to "Görlitzer Bahnhof".

Think he'll be next for me...

Matt Hunt's works is amazing.

Got my first tattoo by Kirk Jones while he was in London...

It looks pretty cool... Did it hurt? My next one is gonna be on a similar area, just wanted to get my mentally ready...

So I made initial contact with Matt Hunt's studio and I got rapid response from someone who says he was away and will reply to me when he gets back... fair enough... then I got another response from someone else asking me what and where I would like to get tattooed and told me that Matt might be coming back to London in the summer... still fair enough.

I then replied to give a clear enough idea of what and where and told that guy the message I would like to send through this new tattoo I have in mind is rather personal so I wanted to speak to Matt directly after we have confirmed an appointment etc... I also asked what are the chances of him coming back to London in the summer... within moments, I got a response from "Matt", but it's basically the entire page of the Q and A on their website, plus more boring crap, but my questions weren't actually answered...

Is this normal for a studio to communicate to a ready to commit client with such stupid general info, rather than passing the communication to the artist directly?

Facebook delivers

the boss

The square stretched lobe offends me more than the terrible tattoos..

That shifty wall colour is the most worrying thing about that picture.

I wish people would refrain from posting shit like this.

It just makes the good stuff look better.

Fair enough, but imagine people posting totally awesome stuff instead,
then you'd be like "whoa, that already was great, now this is even better!"
etc.

Which just reminded me I haven't had a look what Shige has been doing the last months...
