      @Ikeaparty You gotta take me travelling with you. It looks like you know all the best places to eat.

                  Saw my guy (check out dirt_nap_ on insta) for 8 hours today, half of which was drawing and stencilling! To fill the gaps in my sleeve, we put in one more main design on the elbow (the brain with the railway spike, for the idea of “you suffer more in imagination”), then did something we christened a “blast under”, basically adding a load of smaller elements borrowing from the themes we’ve already used and letting those poke out from behind the main pieces, and done in a lighter line weight and just shaded using blackwash. He filled one small gap on the front of the bicep with a round skull in his usual style as a sort of signature. Then he took some nice pics for me to share of the completed (?) sleeve.

                    Does anyone else's tattoos get raised, bumpy, itchy, painful, and/or any of the above, in certain spots due to seasonal allergies ?

                          @ZackB happens to me periodically. Usually an anti-histamine helps. This year has been pretty bad.

                              It’s been a minute, but we are so back. Quite literally. Finally after 5 sessions, spread out over a little over a year, 15 hours of tattooing, it’s finished. Bonus shot with Steve Zimovan. He absolutely crushed this tattoo.

                                  @ZackB for real, Steve crushed it. I’m so pumped with it, and even happier I don’t have to sit through that again. 😅

                                    For real it sucks to get backwork. I hated every minute of it.
