@seawolf that tattoo looks great! Blast overs are cool! I dig it! Especially like the red. Just looks awesome and I like how you can still see the OG tattoos under it. I want to do something with a blast over in the same spot at some point.

@Oaktavia After seeing how dark the new tattoo is, I'm blown away by how light the old one is! The red was a late addition. I went in thinking we'd only do black and let the colors from the old one show through, but towards the end of the session, my tattooer asked if I'd like some color and I told him that I trusted him. This was the result. The blastover changed my old boring tattoos that I wasn't crazy about anymore into something that I love in the style that I prefer. Highly recommended.

@seawolf tattooers love it when clients say they trust them, and often can lead to better ideas and results otherwise.

@Oaktavia It's a lot of trust to put into someone making a tattoo. If they're not experienced enough, it could spell trouble. I have a great relationship with my tattooer, so it's really easy to hand him the keys. And not only does he do incredible work, his shop doesn't have the angsty, gruff vibes that I remember at literally every other tattoo shop I've been to. Their customer service is fantastic and all of the people he hires are superbly talented.

As a leather artisan with much lower risk, I also love when a client says "dealer's choice." I get to be free and make whatever I'm making look cool, and it's always way more fun.

@Graham Yeah I saw Adam Sage post that too. You going?

[Graham]

@Nik

[endo]

@endo

Sad news indeed, Into You which is Alex's first shop in London was where I got my first tattoo 22 years ago. I think that Thomas's opening of Nowhere in Brighton is going to carry the torch from 1770 for sure.

@Daniel-San love that traditional Japanese style! Look forward to seeing it progress.

That dome is turning out pretty awesome man.

Except now your artist will always be able to say his nuts are on your head.

[Mizmazzle]

Bet your not so worried about those spots on the Big Buck any longer

[Oaktavia]

@Matt ROTFL her nuts!

@GraemeE hahaha

@Mizmazzle I'm not following you.

@Oaktavia Noticed you were wearing ur BB in your photos...figured the spiciness of the skull work probably wiped any worry about the spots you previously worried about clean away.
