Octopus Days

We had a nice time in Derby with our friends at Octopus Tattoo. I tattooed 3/4 of the Horton family so many thanks to you all for keeping me busy and out of trouble. First up is a shot of Daisy’s feet.

Then it was Mei-Lin getting a gypsy head.

 

The next morning Paul was in getting a pin-up.

Then on the Monday Daisy ‘The Brave” was in again getting her arm done with a selection of stuff.

Later in the week I had Sam come all the way from Aberdeen – the poor lad was pretty wiped out as he’d just come off night shift on the rigs offshore then travelled straight down to finish his sleeve. Well done mate and thank you.

And for another two days I had Izzy in – yet another trooper I can tell you. I loved doing these pieces as I feel they are representative of my own style.

 

 

Vulture Carrion King

Dots and black and grey…..

 

 

Koi Waves Hannya Waves

We extended Adams Koi sleeve all the way down.

Cobra Inverted

We put an upside down cobra on to Steven’s arm. He likes dark imagery so fire and crosses in a mandala seemed par for course.

Monochrome

I really enjoy doing this stuff in monochrome, I’d like to do a lot more.

Phoenix and Hannya

Alex had an asian inspired phoenix with a modern Hannya on his leg sleeve. I don’t think he liked having his rhino skin like knee tattooed much!

Hope Skull and Anchor

I got in to small details on these….

Annoyingly there is still a bit of stencil left on the hat band…..grr!

Hula Lady

A slightly polynesian, at the least tropical or ‘tiki’ feel about this little pin up.

Asian Updates and Add Ons

I had John pop back in and show me his sleeve now it’s all healed and also added on to Mr Watson’s chest.

Catch Up

I’ve been planning my travels and have also been very busy at the shop. Here are some of the fruits of my labour.
