Looks like I'm going to bring this to Japan…awesome

[Beatle]

Simon - have you talked to Katsushin ?

[premo]

Woohoo, thanks friends.

[madmonday]

looking forward to Katsushin's leg of this.

[Katsushin]

Ready and waiting…

[madmonday]

where we at??

[Katsushin]

Sounds like they're en route to me…

[madmonday]

looking forward to your leg kat

[Katsushin]

Alright…
Got the coasters from Simon626 today.  There are a bunch of cool postcards from the previous locations and even a Texas keychain.
So I'm a tattooer, and it's not the most sanitary thing to incorporate these into my daily work, but I'm sure I can find some action for them (as they look brand spanking new right now).
A sprained back is preventing me from working for a while, but I am able to draw in short intervals...

Working well for the pencil shavings for now, but more to come…

[madmonday]

cool update.

who's the lady???

[Katsushin]

Kannon, Japanese bodhisattva of compassion (for a client's back).
Like many things in Japanese buddhism, she was adapted from Chinese culture via India before that…
(Sort of like an eastern Virgin Mary vibe)

[Katsushin]

Aaaaaand quitting time…
(One on the left is mine)

For a coworker with such similar tastes in clothing, our beer preferences couldn't be farther apart…

[elclintor]

Awesome sketch, and awesome pics!

It sucks you have to limit yourself…

Did jump day sprain your back?

[Katsushin]

^^^ Almost.
My dad fell off the top of a ladder I was holding and I caught him and absorbed his fall while imploding the lower portion of my back…

[nameness]

Someday I hope my kid likes me enough to do the same, good on you.

Hope your back gets better soon, take your time.  Back trouble is nasty business.

@Katsushin:

our beer beverage preferences couldn't be farther apart…

The difference is that you are drinking beer…........

[Beatle]

bam…back to life

[premo]

Really like the drawing, cool update.

[Katsushin]

Seriously makes a great pot holder too…

[Katsushin]

Gonna make him start wiping off his paws before coming inside now…
