My tattoo is finally done. I've been getting tattooed over the past 4 days (4x 7 hours sessions) so I am really swollen. Hope yinz like it. I am most pleased with how it turned out.

@Filthy25ozJunkie will probably be wearing this on Christmas Day, because he's a sexual tyrannosaurus.
Neat tattoo, BTW.
-
@Filthy25ozJunkie Your arm looks great. COOL
-
Thanks @sabergirl. xD check out Steve's Morris' Instagram. He's a genius. He is tattooing my throat next. So stoked.
-
@Filthy25ozJunkie that tattoo is sick! Incredible art.
-
Thank you
Kudos to Stan Winston and Steve Wang for making such an awesome creature. 
-
@Filthy25ozJunkie not sure if it's your thing but have you thought about entering any competitions? Not to try to win any absurd prize but just to share the piece with more people.
-
I asked Steve about that, and he didn't seem interested. He's been on TV a couple of times and I think it kind of wasn't a very positive experience.
-
Understandable. I would imagine if he is doing work as nice as your arm he doesn't really need any more attention than he already gets. I'm sure business is good.
-
@Filthy25ozJunkie you are a beast! 4 days of getting tattooed for 7 hours each day, I could no way in hell do anything near to that. Bet the artist loves you though, they love knocking out big pieces as quickly as possible.
Closest i've got is a couple of 5/6 hour outline sessions on my back. i am a wimp actually, i go for 2 hour sessions.
I'm gonna get my calf tattooed next year by a different artist and he only does day sessions (6 hours), which i'm guessing is the norm with more popular/busier artists -

And that´s huge problem in todays "tattoo scene". Would never say yes to something like that. Fuck the norm. Really dont feel that attitude. But maybe people last longer under the needle when you use a crap/modern machine…
Still dont get it, why do you want some US43200 chainstitched selvedge old shuttle loom jeans when you get tattoos made from rotary machines. But maybe that is just me. Nevermind

@Niro the shop owner Don MacDonald gave me the Badass of the Year award. Steve'S schedule could be full indefinitely. But he chooses to only take on projects that he wants to do.
@JCMx800 rotary machines with needle cartridges are far superior to old fashioned machines for so many reasons. I like how everything even the tube is disposable and hygienic. They are also totally silent. They do single needle tattoos that are hammered in that are even more old school than machines. But that is just silly.

only of the year?
but seriously you must have an insane pain threshold. Did you struggle with it at all? Did Steve space out the time on the high pain areas like inner bicep and elbow ditch?Yea JCM, I would not do whole day sessions, which included high pain areas like inner bicep or ribs, no way i can hack that shit. I agreed to do 6 hour day on my calf as I think it will be comparable to outer arm, which is low pain. Plus after doing 5-6 hour on my back, it's probably going to be piss easy to handle in comparison.
