Delurk
Wez
Just thought I'd finally step out of the shadows after hanging around for a
while.
A little bit about me:
I am 32 and I live in sunny Queensland, Australia. I have been a fan of
bodyart for as long as I can remember, but my major inspiration occurred
when at about 17 I read the RE/search book "Modern Primitives". It put a
lot of things into perspective for me. Since then I have been collecting
tattoos and piercings. Early on I made a couple of errors with selection of
designs and artists but they can and probably will be eventually covered up.
Since moving to Queensland (from Tasmania) I have found a great artist in
Matt Cunnington at Westside Tattoo.
My current project is a biomechanical type piece on my left shoulder that
finances willing will have a major session done in the next month or so.

Welcome. Your right sleeve is rockin'. I love the negative flames
especially. Grab a RABbit tail, ears, carrot juice, and/or a barstool
and enjoy the show.

I don't see a References: header in his post. Is your newsreader
threading by Subject line?

I thought they were sacred hearts chained together. We're seeing them from
a side/front view. But I agree with someone else, the right sleeve is very
beautiful.

Thankyou, lol, no they are hearts. a friend gave my wife and I this
picture for our wedding so we both got the design as tattoos as our wedding
present to each other

sorry about that, I don't now how that happened, I posted as a new post and
it turned up in here.(outlook express, does that explain anything?). Won't
happen again(I hope).

No you may not, my wife gets that job

Welcome aboard, Wes, I'm only new myself! I can't say enough good things
about Westside Tattoo (and Matt's a legend in his own right), Caleb's
started working on my right sleeve in a marathon (well, for me)
seven-and-a-half-hour sitting last month when I was down QLD way. I'm
looking forward to my trip down in June to get the background worked on
extensively! I have pics on my IAM page (http://spikesandstuds.bmezine.com),
but I believe you have to be a member to see the full galleries. I'm a
piercer up in Darwin, NT, by the way, and yes, I happily travel across the
country to get my work done by decent artists - we have plenty of "Dr.
Slick"-style hacks in the Top End, but that's defnitely NOT what I'm after
for my tattoos. ;)
Hope to hear more from you soon!

threading by Subject line?
Ummmmm.... I dont know. I think it threads by date. My computer knowledge
is fairly limited so I dont know what went wrong. It frustrates the hell
out of me.

My friend Patrick did the pony boy art as a t-shirt design for the band I
played drums in. He also did the hearts piece and designed my left arm. He
is very talented.(and I can't draw to save my life)

lol, so you know northern Queensland, nice place Cooktown, bit rough but
nice
>Are these your Westside people: http://www.westsidetattoo.com.au ?
Yes, Matt is doing all my work now and Judd did my stomach. Link (now at
Allstar Tattoo, Indooroopilly) did the original negative flames

Thanks, I seem to have a lot of trouble with my skin and solid colours, for
some reason they do not take well and it takes 3 or 4 sessions to get them
solid. I dont know why. My tattooist says that he has never had so much
trouble with solid colours on anyone. My elbow hates me for it.
I take it I'm not in Kansas any more.

Thankyou, after the discussions on reactions to red ink I am a bit worried
that I might have a reaction one day. But I am barely allergic to anything
so heres hoping.

Yes the past few days have been quite interesting.
I'll have a bourbon and carrot juice thanks.

Its the choice for healthy drunks.
Actually I've never tried it and I dont plan on trying it, Bourbon and Cola
is my thing.

The left arm is the not-red one, correct? I liked the eye. Over what
time period did you get all the ink?

It was the only drinking hole in Queensland I could come up with on
short notice - so I don't know much about Queensland as I'm certain
there's hundreds of them.
The hearts are intriguing, and a neat wedding tattoo. Are your wife's
the same or a variation?
Your original post inserted itself into mid-thread on my newsreader as
well, and then it showed up again where it should have. Did you start
a fresh thread rather than follow-up but with a Subject line change
when you originally posted it? I don't know all that much about
Outlook Express, but someone here should be able to give you help with
that (if it happens again) as well as turn on your attributions.
As for concerns about red reaction, it was always quite rare and it is
much less common now that mercury is not used in ink formulations.
(Usually, I recently came across an abstract that found a tattoo shop
in the UK using red ink containing mercuric sulphide.) Reactions to
other colours have been described, but they are extremely uncommon.
I wonder how often poor technique (in application or healing) has been
explained away using a "red reaction" as an excuse.

Well, nothing you can do about it now :)
Few had reations to red ink years ago, and since changes 25+ years ago even
fewer have it now, and they are not as severe.

>time period did you get all the ink?
correct, I started the left arm for my 30th birthday about 2 1/2 years ago
and took about 9 months to complete.
the negative flames were originally done in 99 and I had the rest of it done
during 2003
>The hearts are intriguing, and a neat wedding tattoo. Are your wife's

My wife tattoo is exactly the same but on her lower back. We wanted
something that symbolised our love without getting each others names on each
other.
