Jackalope Owls Drink Tea.

This was one of those awesome times that I drew something, developed a crush on it, wanted to tattoo it so badly....and then someone sees it and immediately decides that it needs to be on them, like Ron Burgundy and Veronica Corningstone.

Also, I am not a photographer.

Zombies, Skeleton Dinosaurs, and Bunnies With 9v Batteries!

I did this on a guy a while back (I know, I hadn't updated in a while). I was bored one day, I wanted to do a cartoon zombie, and he happens to like zombies, so there was no choice but to do it.



This is on a cool Air Force guy, who just happens to love dinosaurs as much as I do. The funny thing about it is that it's a carnivore......and he's a vegan...



And say hello the the bunny gracing my latest business card.

A Little Bit Traditional

This is on my friend Brad. Good guy to call a friend. Not only is he someone I consider family, but he's really open to getting fun little tattoos that aren't boring as fuck. Thanks yo.



This one is on a guy that I've tattooed before. He came in, saying he wanted a black and grey rose, and ended up getting this fun little guy in color instead.

Jesus Steaks, Healed Snakes, and A Traditional Dagger

So, this kid comes in with his friend who's getting her ribs done. He has decided he wants stakes on his wrists. I ask "Like, meat steaks?" He laughs a little bit, and then says "nah, you know, like the nails used on Jesus". So, I start drawing it up, after jokingly drawing a t-bone steak. A couple of other people asked me what I was srawing, and him what he was getting. Every single person had the same response:

"Like, meat steaks?"



I had started this on my friend Scooter not too long ago. Heres a nice healed up picure.


This guy came in, and had me draw up a dagger, with the words "death before dishonor" in a banner. I am NOT a fan of the way he wanted the lettering, script just doesn't look right with traditional style tattoos, unless they are a tribute tattoo ect. but eh, thats what I think. He sat pretty still, and I'm glad for that.

Kitty!

I had written this long and hilarious post here, and then my stupid mouse (probably in retaliation for this post) fucking closed my tab, and I lost it all. So, fuck you mouse, here's a kitty tattoo.

This is on my friend Jenn, because she loves kitties.





and apparently, with this post I became html retarded.

Showcased!

So, I've been a member of BodyMod.org for awhile now, and I've noticed something rather cool lately. Three times lately I've had a tattoo I've done showcased on the frontpage. I'm thinkin' that that's pretty cool.

Heart Tattoo On A Friend



This is on my friend Chandra. Her dad has had a stroke, and an embolism recently, and she asked if I could design something pulmonary related for him. I came up with this, and she got it on her ribs. The linework looks shinier than it is, as I did it before the coloring and it had just healed up.

A Flower, Blooming Out Of A Gramophone



This one was fun, and I wasn't even supposed to do it. My coworker Chong, who is an AMAZING artist, drew the gramophone, and started on the swirly things. He asked me if I wanted to collaborate on the flower, and handed his half over to me. I was pretty stoked, I love his artwork, and a chance to add to it was fine by me. Things happened, and he wasn't able to tattoo it, so asked me if I would, because the girl wasn't going to be in town long. So when she came in, we sat and talked with her, and she liked my portfolio, and we started it. I have yet to do a background, but that will be blues and greens and some negative space butterflies.

Sacred Hearts and Hilarious Flash

Okay, so this guy came in with a friend of his. The friend asked me the standard "how much" question and showed me something, and I quoted him a price thinking he wanted it a LOT bigger than he was thinking, so I told him $300...he decided to go ask someone else (which was understandable after I realized how big he wanted it), but his friend decided to ask me how much for this sacred heart flash he brought in. It was terrible. I'll admit, it wasn't as bad as the guy that came in with something off badtattoos.com (no fuckin joke), but it was pretty bad. The only reason I could tell it was a sacred heart was because of the flames and thorns. So, I told him $200, if I could redraw it.



Now to the guy that came in earlier. I felt sorry for my coworker, Rob, when he had to deal with this. Seriously, why would you go to a website called BADTATTOOS.com, and decide, 'Oh, I want that tattoo'? I mean, seriously? Whut? Rob had to redraw it, and make it not suck. He did it, I give him props, but dame, that mustve given him some kinda headache.

Moogle Riding a Chocobo Tattoo!



This was the girl's first tattoo. I had wanted to tattoo a chocobo or a moogle for a long time, so when she came in wanting both.....yeah, I was pretty stoked. She didn't want the more "realistic" version of the chocobo, nor did she want the seriously cartoony one from Chocobo's Dungeon, so I drew up something in the middle for her. I love drawing chocobos, but for some reason I had never drawn a moogle before. I'm pretty happy with the pose, and the way it all came out though. It was super fun to tattoo.

Also, the girl who had gotten the "No Music, No Life" tattoo on her foot came in to get somnething else done, so I grabbed a healed picture. Turned out pretty solid for her being in basic training, and having to pretty much immediately put her tattoo destroying boots on.
