    Hi All,

    Just got this done yesterday. It was a 4 hour sitting. It needs another 3 hours to finish.

    Got it done by Karen Russell about a month and a half ago...

    Karen's a genius, have a black tribal piece from my hip to my toes done by her.
    Free hand design. Wish she was still in Dublin

    Indeed she is... Was my first by her but not the last. Gonna get it extended to full sleeve in the summer. Must try put up proper picture soon as they were taken with iPhone. Dont think shes going to be going back to Dublin anytime soon tho. Unlucky :(

    6 hours into a 1950's jazz era leg sleeve. Just 12 more hours to go. It's being done by Remis in Skin City. Extremely nice guy, and an even better artist!

    Has Remis moved to Skin City now? Tattoo looks brilliant.

    First and probably only pic of new septum piercing. It'll be flipped up while healing. Not sure if it suits me or not though =/

    Thanks lads! I'm really happy with it! Can't wait to get it finished. Remis is fully booked until February, which is a testament to how great an artist he is.

    Hi, does anyone know what the story is with getting a small tattoo at the cork tattoo convention? Like do you have to book or anything...? I mean small as in just a little bit bigger than a 2euro coin.... :) Dying to get something new cos I havent gotten one since last summer and i've only got the 4...
    I have big plans for my leg sleeve but that needs to be completely planned out before I continue work on it... So far I only have one on my calf and one on my thigh.. I can try put up pic's if anyone wants to see. But I want to see what can tie everything together before I start using up precious space on my leg. Ha ha :D

    You'd be best off booking in case any of the artists are fully booked for the weekend. There should be a list of artists and their emails so have a look at some portfolios and email the ones you're interested in.

    It's not my tattoo unfortunately, belongs to Adiboo.
