ive always liked a splash of red on b/g tattoos so if you would be able to incorporate some red, it would be dog gonned swell.

looks good. have you ever washed your towel with whites?

nope

Ooooooor just get the lotion applicator…

I think the person who got ink from dmitry entered the contest and sent him the awards. I dont think he actually tattooed in detroit. Could be wrong tho…

Was he at the detroit convention? Didnt even know. Even so, i have no more room on my body for him… 🙁

damn lucky guy!!!!!! i would looooooove to get tattooed by him but i couldnt commit to flying all the way over there from the usa for multiple sessions. i cant wait to see pics, he is my fav artist at the moment.

You can find it at bed bath beyond. He recommnded it to me on another forum. I will try to find the link.

Cali has a high concentration of great artists so u are lucky.

Ok i suck at geography lol, one last try. Is norway far? Noi siamese iii.

i used this padded back washer thing that adler recommended. works like a dream with soap, ointment, lotion.

how about the london convention? the best convention in the world and you can get either shige or jess yen? or some other amazing artists. paolo acuna won a bunch of awards and does some great japanese influenced tattoos.

i dont think he is banned from conventions yet, but there are some very influential artists wanting him banned. if you are not sure, why not just get work from dmitry instead?

Peter has work from victor. He is a tattoo snob like me.

Is denmark far? Henning jorgensen is a legend in traditional japanese.

Johan finne evil twins tattoo in sweden. Is that far from europe?

Good color combo and good shading in the face.

Ive done a 9hr session and next day 6hr session. I also drove 8hrs straight and started a tattoo at 630pm, finished at 430am and the day after flew to las vegas for a 5hr session. My whole mentality is pain is temporary but tattoos are a lifetime so i just try to deal with it.

the top of the feet is supposed to be one of the most painful areas, so if you can deal with that then the chest should be bearable. though i do hear the sternum is pretty brutal as well…

looks good, congrats! i am itching for some new ink…
