1st Blog of 2012 :)

Hey guys, so we’re back in work now after our break over Christmas. Happy New Year to everyone :) So for those of you who don’t know, both Chris and I are charging half price for tattoos, which is very exciting ! If anyone would like to get something from us, pop into the shop and we can get you booked in :)

Mon 9th Jan – So this was my 1st tattoo of the year and I couldn’t wait :) I got to tattoo a set of wings around a portrait that Nick (my Dad) had done on a customers forearm. After aligning the transfers, I outlined the tattoo, then moved on to shading them using a new machine handed down to me by my dad :) It was so good to tattoo again, I really enjoyed it, and after completing the tattoo, was really happy with how it turned out :) Ryan, the customer, was super happy too so smiles all round :)

Tue 10th Jan – This was a funky design on my friend and customer Pricey. He brought me a wooden mask he wanted on his leg, so after drawing it up, we got started. After finishing with the outline and small detail work on the forehead and cheeks, I began the black sections. I then coloured in sections with darker and lighter shades of green and red. I was gutted I had to finish this sitting without finishing the tattoo, but I was excited with how its looking so far, and I can’t wait to see it completed in the next sitting :) Pricey was loving how his tattoo was coming along, so roll on next sitting :)

Sun 15th Jan – Another cool sitting with Tim blue flames :) I love tattooing Tim, its always a giggle and swapping stories just makes the time fly ! So as you can see from the pics, I have finally finished colouring in all the darker shade of blue! This is one hell of a tattoo for me, as its my 1st sort of sleeve and its taking hrs and hrs but I’m loving it and I so cant wait to see how its going to look after adding all the extra shades etc :) Its going to be a long ride but definitely worth it :)
