biomechanical crazy skeliton dude.

So! today was spent doing 4 and a half hours of linework on this super colourful sleeve to be.....
he's booked in again for about 2 weeks, and we're gonna lay down the black shading.....then the goodness comes. the COLOUR! i normally really don't enjoy bio mech, but throw a skull in the mix, and i pretty much free handed the majority of it, so it was fun.







yesterday was spent well on 2 nice ol' roses, and i tattooed my brother at the end of the day. he's one of the few (FEW!) ppl who i'll work on for free, after all, blood is thicker than ink! haha





and finally, the star crossed website has been totally revamped! REVAMPED i tell ya! we even have guestbook now (fancy!) go friggin' sign it y'all! u might need to delete starcrossedtattoo.com from ur cache, coz websites and technology remember stuff, so check out the new, fancy ass, awesomeness that is www.starcrossedtattoo.com ! woo hoo!

painting tattoos of tattoo paintings

So today was fun. did a one shot half sleeve on a tattoo virgin (good going by the way!). its based on a HUGE painting he was given, we thought we'd have to miss loads off seeing as him arms weren't too big, but as it worked up, i pretty much squeezed it all in.

Heres a couple of shots of it:

monkeys and machines = perfect day

so yesterday ruled! i got up soooooper early (9am......i cant remember the last time i was awake before midday!) to rush to the studio coz there was a tattooer travelling from spain and i was not gonna let him leave without doing a piece on me!



(thanks i LOVE IT!) (i'm hoping someone can translate that for him) he spoke barely any english, but we managed. so i got a kick ass monkey hand with a rose n stuff. Loving it! so 4 hrs later, i tattoo my customers for the rest of the day, and i did another mammoth godzilla of a piece! sat through it like a trooper.



and heres a piece i did the day before. "Ashes" and "Dust" for those of you who dont read german!
OOoohh....and i almost forgot! I got a brand spankin new tattoo machine yesterday too! Life is good i tell ya! Woop woop and all that jazz.



Tomorrow, a half sleeve and a design i have been meaning to finish since the dawn of man. (sorry ! you know who u r)

The men in my life rock!

Quick post before i start my next tattoo, a few good hours work on an elbow....ouch!
On a lighter note, Buster makes a kickass cowboy!

The Dearest

So yesterday I managed to squeeze 2 of the guys from "The Dearest" in for tattoos. They are a band from Canada who are at the tail end of their tour. Then, as standard......off to AMAZONIA!
Here's the pics of their tattoos.....
