some of my Ink was done around a cage but the last 10 or so have been done at a friends shop were we kick it most of the time and hook up some trades for Ink and the world keeps spinning.
I got my tat at the denver tattoo convention a couple of years ago. It's a calf piece from ankle to the back of my knee. I was 60 at the time, it took seven and a half hours of inkin, non stop but for a couple of breaks and some tequila doubles. Getting ready to finish the rest of the leg. My daughter has around 30 or so tats.
I have quite a few...both arms, stomach, and upper chest (Collar Bone area)
My only regrets are that I got all Flash...wish I would have gotten sleeves as a whole theme, instead of stuff just "here and there"--
Im only a youngin myself, and i started big, 1st tattoo was an entire sleeve, Koifish bottom, Japanese dragon wrapping from my shoulder down inner bicep, ending up opposite side of the koi down bottom, and then i went a little untraditional and bound it all together looks great, have a Irish Celtic cross on outer bicep, a RIP for my father, my arist tied it all in together the traditional jap, with the celtic cross, it all ties in perfectly with light eminating from cross, going into the clouds and of the upper dragon and down into the waves down bottom half of arm.
plus one. Have 4 at the moment. I want to get the Arabic spelling for hashish on my arm along with the zigzag man, but with all the Islam hatred nowadays I've been rather scared to pursue the matter any further. All I need is some illiterate redneck to see it and want to gun me down for being a terrorist. If you have Clarke's Hashish book it's the Arabic spelling found on the first few pages.
