Cheers aaron! Can't wait to get it finished but there is still about six hours to go. The elbow and the inside of my arm up near the arm pit are by far the worst bits so far!

 

Or one that only works 1-2 days a week and takes autumn off to go kayaking in the Rockies

It's always worth the wait ti get the right artist, fair play to you for your patience. 3 weeks has killed me lol (that's rushing by my normal standards for the record)

 

Lol he does 6 days a week Michael and on Sundays usually does tattoo conventions!!

What u having done now??

 

**** me he must be MINTED lol. Most I know only work a few days a week these days, lazy sods.

I'm having a foot piece done, tribute to a mate who died in an accident last month. I have the rough sketch of it, but am looking forwards to seeing how it develops with depth.
Black and grey with colours accents.

 

Woohoo, just a few hours to go, foot and ankle shaved and ready.
I'm not nervous, but am curious to see what this is gonna feel like.
Can't wait to finally have a tattoo i can see most of the time lol.

 

Allow me.... "painful"

 

Lol I doubt it's gonna be painful, a little uncomfortable around certain parts maybe. Or could be surprisingly dull in sensation.

Although I am sure you would love me to be crying in pain lol

 

quite a few girls I know have their feet done so I'm sure you will be OK

 

Yeah my missus has a foot tattoo. Difference is I'm getting a 6-8 hour complete sock piece with lots of shading and detail, rather than a few lines and solid colours lol.

But like you say, if girls can handle it, I MUST!

 

I'll be interested to hear what you think, just started on my leg and am wondering how low to go...chav stamp to start with

 

I will be sure to let ya know how it goes mate. I'm sure it won't be that bad really. The thighs have been fine.
Guess it just depends on how much you want it, where your mind goes when it's being done, and your tolerance for such things.

This will only come up to my ankle anyway, staying hidden like the rest of them.

 

furry muff, mines going to be a full old school trad sock; dead swallow on my inside shin booked for Wednesday

 

I expect to see pictures! Lol
I will post some pictures once I can see out of my blurry tear filled eyes.

Here goes 3 hours of tickles lol. Starting with a well deserved pizza!

cheers mate, the drive home should be fun lol.
I tend to sit there taking pictures as its being done, mailing them and posting them on FaceBook lol.

Here is some of the work she has done on a friend. Pics were taken straight after she finished. The cross is a close-up of the cross in the pic of the whole piece. Its on his forearm.



Look forward to seeing them. How long you sitting for?

 

not long, got a cancellation so it's only four hours...some other examples of his work; http://www.immortalink.co.uk/?page=g...t=160410125008

 

Very nice indeed mate. Maybe somewhere to consider for my portfolio lol

 

top bunch at Immortal Ink, can cover pretty much all styles there

 

Add me on Facebook...Boyd Rees...Think there's only one of me lol

 

done

 

This is actually no where near as bad as I thought it might be, hence I'm posting here to pass the time lol

Have uploaded some Facebook pictures and will post progress pics too.

For the record, the foot is ok, do it! Lol

 

All lined and back home now. Like I said nowhere near as bad as I expected, and around the back was far from what I expected.
Fits beautifully and I am chuffed to bits, let alone super excited for the shading.

Pics shortly

 

 

Here ya go, remember this is just line work for now. Fits beautifully, and is just what I wanted.

Back on the 18th to get the shading started.

 

Looking good Snazy, some good line work there too mate

 

Cheers mate, some of the detail is crazy lol

 

like that allot
