        I got this blasted on my chest in one go a few weeks ago. It’s a tribute to my dad. He had this P-51 mustang airbrushed on the tail of his vans RV-7a.



        Here I am in front of an actual P-51 at an air show in Joseph Oregon this last weekend.

                  Most recent piece, done back in Hawaii. A memento of a darker time in my life, and a song that helped get me through it. 100 fake internet points to anyone who guesses it.

                  @Brock that's a beautiful piece. They did a phenomenal job on the shading, especially with the clouds. Mad respect for being able to get that done in one shot.

                          Thanks everyone I really love it. I was there from 12-6. But it took around 4 hours under the needle. The line work was cake but the last hour of shading I was hating life!

                                Just took the wrapping off of this… something of a personal statement on why I'm changing careers soon. Text says "RATS GET FAT / WHILE BRAVE MEN DIE".

                                @Endo "On GP" by Death Grips. Fair warning if you search it up, their music is kind of abrasive. Very much a 'love it or hate it' kinda thing.

                                  First of two blackout sleeve sessions. I wore my right arm sleeve for a decade and now have decided to move on to a second layer. I plan to finish the top half in a month or so and proceed to layer more white ink on top if I can find someone to do it. Absolutely brutal pain wise and my arm is on fire  😃

                                  He used a 39 mag needle which resembles a sharp paint brush 1/2 inch wide. Wore my XHSbb for the big.day.
