Cool tats @Mizmazzle. Thanks for sharing and keep those drinks flowing!

Love seeing an active tattoo thread! Lost my job in NY peak-COVID and used the time/depression as an excuse to get tattooed a couple times a week waiting for my apartment lease to be over and move back to the west coast. Here are a few of my favorites...

It's dat turqouise eyeball

[Matt]

It sure is.

[october rust]

Thanks fellas! Yeah always wish the reaper was somewhere besides my shoulder because I like it so much but never see it hah

[Matt]

I totally forget about the ones on my shoulders. I was surprised to see I had a large back tattoo the other day.

[october rust]

@Matt Hah! My arms are completely done, and I'm deciding if I go chest or back next. I've heard a few times that sternum is the most painful spot to get tattooed, so most of me thinks I should just bite the bullet and get it over with.

[Matt]

I didn’t mind it. Definitely was not my most painful. I think it varies by person.

[Matt]

I hated my calfs, back, wrists and certain pets of my hands.

How bad are the armpits to get done?

[Oaktavia]

First image is Amanda and my matching honeymoon tattoos. We drove from West Virginia to Maine and saw so many lupines.

Second is my back peice progress. It's done now...

[Oaktavia]

@goosehd fucking horrible

[goosehd]

I have the full upper body done minus the strip down the middle of my chest and the armpits. My tattooist and I had long conversations about the armpits…he said they are a pain in the ass to tattoo, hurts like hell, and doesn’t take ink that well.

I passed but always wondered just how bad it was from someone who’s had it done.

It's actually intended to be a mirror. Design is a Polito original, with the idea that you're looking at your reflection and realizing that you're evil. I have a version done by Akira Latanzio a few years ago.

[Matt]

Sick af. I forgot about elbows. They suck too.

[Matt]

@goosehd not in a rush for armpits. My next bastard wil be my knees. Also not in a hurry.

Not sure how I just came across this thread, but I've been collecting for close to 20 years now. The upside to being almost completely covered is that over the last several months I've been able to justify becoming completely unemployable.
