@riffblaster:

I just sit down and tell Thomas to do whatever he wants, so it's all him.  I just show up.

That's the way to do it…It's looking great, Riff!

When fully clothed, he's also a well dressed gentleman…

It's Tony Sylvester from Turbonegro - they're Norwegian but he's British, and yes he's a dapper chap…

I'm going to see them in November at FunFunFun. Pretty freaking stoked. Heard its a helluva show!

[MastersOfDeath]

Yep, a great punk rock 'n' roll band - (Such a great line up for FFF btw!).

I saw them a few weeks ago at Slim's in SF.  Great show.

[riffblaster general]

Tony is one of my very close friends.  A well dressed chap to say the least!  He writes for GQ style and coincidentally has many Thomas Hooper tattoos as well!

[Finn666]

talking first design ideas with my tattoo artist tomorrow…pretty excited I have to say 
also I wonder what he'll come up with as a first sketch!...

[davito]

Very nice Finn good luck and bring on some freehand style looking forward seeing it. Best, d.

This is another one of mine.

I'm thinking about having Billy do another one similar on my other calf. I highly reccomendation his shop in Paia Maui Hawaii.

Justin, who also works there did this one for my wife.

my girl´s getting inked next week, so maybe i´ll throw up some pics of that

cheers

Man, I'm so saddened Riff had to turn me on to Thomas Hooper. I'm so in love with his work I spend hours looking at it. I'd love to have him sleeve my right arm…too bad he isn't taking clients. Here's a cool look into his studio. I can't quit drooling. Tattoo obsession.
