… in the mail.

I finally have a piece done by the amazing Carlos Torres. Sadly it is not a tattoo, but it fantastic. It is the artwork from his latest t-shirt.

A signed and numbered limited edition print, I have number 4 of only 17. Now to get it framed and up on the wall!! 🙂

Wow. He is so incredibly…

This is slightly off topic but I’m curious so I’m gonna ask. Did give your bird a name? ‘Cuz I named mine.

Since he’s blue and noble-looking, I’m thinking about naming him Ram. If I wanted a more modern Indian name… Maybe Dillip? I’m torn.

I saw that this morning, too. I think that I liked it better before she added the butterfly. It was somehow cooler looking. But it is still a stunning piece.

Large neck tattoos shorten the neck. It’s not a favorable look, because she’s obviously pretty petite.

What did you name yours?

None of my tattoos have names.

I think we got off topic some time ago!

And I thought I was bad. I just got my forearm done 3 weeks ago and I already have a tentative appointment for September and a confirmed appointment in October.

I mean that if you had posted a link to his portfolio and asked opinions on whether you should get a tattoo from Micah.

Oh yeah. Well my next one I am gonna post I am looking at 3 diff places.

Well, I’ve seen a lot worse. But it sure doesn’t make me want to run out and get a tattoo from him.

I like yours a lot better.

Yeah, sure…it actually looks sharper viewing on this forum thru my cell than it does on the computer, must not have a sharp res computer…..but yeah if I wanna get something super good…[Read more]

I so wish that I could, but I won’t be coming to California until September.

I’m trying to come down for it next year, though.

its definitely an awesome convention!

I like the contrast of the colour against the black, I’m assuming that the roses will get coloured in on the next session.

Agreed, I think the feathers and roses would get lost in the whole thing if we coloured it all.

I remember paisley fabrics in the 70’s (yup, I’m that old) (btw I was a kid back then).

I was in junior high school in 1968 when I campaigned for Richard M. Nixon!

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like you are going to have lots of time to plan your tattoo and research artists while you are saving up, and this is a good thing. Warning: A good artist will probably cost more than you are expecting, but will be well worth it in the end. Don’t look for the best deal, look for the best…

WOW! Looking good. Scar is gone already.

Can’t wait to see it after he gets his crayons out.

I’m excited, too! Thank you!

The sunny weather has started, but my new forearm tattoo is only a week old so I don’t want to expose it to sunshine and it’s too fresh to apply sunscreen on. Spent three beautiful sunny days hiding indoors but I just couldn’t take it anymore. My solution? I went out and bought an inexpensive long sleeve t-shirt that…

Interesting. I hate that sun. Don’t know why, but I just don’t like it.

Are you afraid of garlic?
How about wooden stakes?

It can happen. TattooIsh (Ish Schuurbiers) magically appeared at the local tattoo show in Vancouver.

That’s exactly what I’m hoping will happen here. We have had an international tattoo conference here for the past 6 years, always run by the Reykjavik Ink crew, and have sadly mostly been populated by the Reykjavik Ink…[Read more]

Don’t hesitate to travel in order to get a great tattoo from the right artist. One of my tattoos came with two trips to California. Totally worth it. And I’ll be travelling down there to see another artist this fall.

Check out the Brag List in peterpoose’s signature. Everyone on that list is worth travelling to.
