Leftovers

Yesterday was our second attempt to get the danish customers in gear and give them a chance to skip waiting lists and all that stuff...be spontaneous and just jump right in and get at tattoo. Well... Let's start with the concept.

As some of you know (you who follow me on twitter, here and instagram) we had a few leftovers from the London flash and since I really wanted to do some more tattoos from these pages I decided to make two days where you could skip the waiting list and get a tattoo right now. First day was previous friday. I ended up doing two tattoos witch was really good but there would have been time for a few more. Still a big thanks to Jonas and Kasper for getting a piece done. Second day was yesterday. Much better! 3 guys came from Sweden to get a piece of the action and our regular customer Ole also wanted a little something. Just like in London, everything just worked out smoothly and I had a really fun day. Thanks guys! It was awesome to work like this and actually get to do 4 cool tattoos on 1 day.

If I still sound a bit disappointed it's only because I had hoped for more people to be spontaneous and just drop by. I do feel it was a success and I had great fun both days. It just seems funny how people always complain about how impossible they think it is to get tattooed by me when really, it's not. Join the waiting list. Look on our twitter for last minute cancelations, and drop by when we have a walking day like these two days. I hope it is just a matter of getting used to this before we can make it work because I have plans about doing this at least once a month. I'm gonna build up a collection of flash that will be available on these days and where you can just drop by to get tattooed on the day. It won't be one of a kind flash like this was but I'm hoping that the collection will grow so that there will be smaller chance for repetitions. The few designs that hasn't been done from the London flash will be going into the flash archive but those designs that I have tattooed by now will not be made again. DONE!

So keep an eye out for flash walking day news later. It everything works out the firs one will be sometime in December. So remember: Walk-in...no appointments needed. No custom work, ONLY from my own flash. More info soon.

So here is what came out of the leftover days, minus one that was bleeding a bit too much to get a good picture of it.

London news.

Here is a quick post made from my iPhone so I'm sorry if it doesn't look like it is supposed to. This is the first time I try this blogger app but I have had noooo time to blog for a while. Every day working and going home afterward to paint for my London flash. Still not done yet but this is the last chance I have to post a preview of what you can get done at this weekends London tattoo convention. There is no appointments so just drop by and see if there is an opening and something you like. Every design will only be done once so it will remain exclusive.
Now if you will excuse me I have a tattoo to do before packing and finishing my flash.

It's a loooong road

Today I did my flash sheet for Tattoo Artist Magazine.
I had decided to do a Rambo flash sheet...don't ask why because I don't know how that happened! Well here it is..well the shitty scanned version of it that is. BUT This is not for grabs anyway! If you wanna use this then please buy the flash through the magazine.

Warning! Rant ahead:

This was brought to my attention the other day:

Apparently sleazy rock party promoters are the only ones doing anything for the Danish tattoo scene!
Before i was informed of this, i had no idea that making parties at nightclubs, with strippers, a way too young audience, loads of drunk people, tattooing in a backroom of the club, offering the logo of the event tattooed for free, was considered doing something for the "scene"!
No idea... I would not have guessed it!
Silly me, here I was, thinking that the people making a difference for the Danish tattoo scene were the tattooers, who tried to show people what is going on it the wide world of tattooing, travelling and educating themselves, and raising the standard of tattooing.
The ones who are trying to educate customers about what to look for when getting a tattoo.
The people who are promoting great tattooers by showing their work and telling the people what is actually possible these days.
But I was wrong. I was thinking about sooo many different people but no... Party promoters!! That's who!!
Now that i think about it, I bet that's how it is all over the world.
And come to think of it... how about the people who create clothing lines with tattoo designs on them? They got it right too I guess!! Awesome people!!
Good job assholes!! Don't expect a thank you basket from me any time soon!!

Flash Update

I did it! I finished my half of the split flash set that I am doing with my friend Hunter Spanks! The goal was to have it finished for the London Tatttoo Convention next weekend but I also wanted to have it finished before he get here tomorrow morning.
I havn't seen what he has added to my 3 center pieces and he hasn't seen what I have done with his 3 sheets so we are both excited to finally see the whole set finished and together. This is also why you guys will have to wait just a little bit more to see the brand new flash!!! But I can give you a tease!!





Maybe tomorrow, when Hunter gets here with the rest of the sheets, I will post the whole set! Maybe!
