Cool to see you're gettin some fresh ink.
How's life treatin yah up there in cannuckistan? :poly124:
The Perfection medal from Halo, good reminder to brush my teeth.
pretty sweet Alice tat as well. something funny about a tattoo character that has tattoos. like someone taking a picture of someone taking a picture :P
I'm pretty happy with it so far, but I can't wait to get it finished!!! I am definitely thinking I want Alice somewhere on my body, but I'm still debating on where she'll go. I'll also be getting McFarlane's Dorthy, a work or two by Brom and some more misc coverups.
Yeah, I'm making up for lost time here... and how can I say no to free tattoos!?!
EQ: There are no nips in the pix, stop your complaining ;p
Spug: The tattooist I'm apprenticing under is the one doing this tattoo for me. He's much more into a smooth and lineless approach to his work, as opposed to the traditional tattoo look. Unfortunately I was unable to sit through the whole piece as I was under the weather that day, but it will definitely be filled out a lot more by the end. Hopefully it peels & heals by this Saturday so I can get 'er done!
This is the original art, before it was flipped to hide my other one better:
ae. & whats_true: You're not alone... my mom, dad, uncle & grandmother all hate it too hehehe
Since starting work at the shop I have got 2 new tattoos and another coverup done, this is my 4th. I've also got 16 piercings now, 3 new ones, with a fair few more on the horizon... if you think this is crazy, just wait till I show you the dermal implants I have on order!
This was tattoo #8, yes, it's a pink camel on my toe
Tattoo #9, props if you know who they represent:
This was my first coverup, still have to get the shading and the colour done:
This is my newest piercing, a single-point microdermal with slave ring attached. No, it didn't hurt

If you're getting Alice... I say make it a very pin-up design, and maybe somewhere at least a little dirty?? ^^
That's some cool ink, love the cat! Hope the apprenticship is going well
lil pink camel did my day, thank you!
I just got an Alice sleeve finished this January (though, pin-up style and definitely not American McGee style)...Just curious, what shop are you at and how are you finding the apprenticeship? It's something I've actually considered myself.

Cool tats!

Been contemplating on doing some form of wireframe tattoo on my leg, but don't think it would turn out well.
Oh god why didn't I get that until you said it.
you getting the viewcube on the other arm
Thanks
I freaking hate the interactive-ladida-viewcube! NEVAR!
will you have four of them around your face?
Digging the McGee's Cheshire Cat, too, DK
im a fan of tattoo's, but the skulls and tribals just arent my thing.
i think its a waste to use your body as a piece of paper for those type of things
i do like japanese style tats alot, but ill just enjoy them and let other people get them
getting one myself.. i duno, might be a while before i ever get one, if i ever get one,
and i need to stand behind it for 200%
maybe a halo logo, or something related..
