Nop ! Was wrong !!
Thought I was gonna start and finish a one shot today but was all wrong !! Ended up making a sweet background for one of my older pieces ! Pictures would have looked weird with some 2 year old tattoo and a brand new bloody background so will have to wait till it's all healed up !! So no tattoos for you today ! ... Sorry !
However , a few cool pieces ahead starting from Monday !! If I'm right about what I think I'll be doing , this time !!
Until then ... Book making busyness !! I've been working on the China 05 chapter for the last week and it looks damn good let me tell ya !! Makes me miss China a lot and however much fun it is to make this book ... It's kind of weird to see all this old stuff again ! Here's an old shot I took of the Forbidden city entrance on Tiananmen square back in 05 !
Post ya later ... Blog surfers !

HK 3K !
'tis today's tat-action !!
Once again this very promising sleeve came over for just over 4 hours of colour today !! Looking good ! These are some not too good pictures of it but had to post something about this piece today !! A giant future city sleeve !! Blade runners would be jealous !!!
Yes !! You can't see them on this picture but there are a few flying cars in there !! What would a future-city be without them anyway !? Will be working on this one again in March !! Keep an eye out if ya like these crazy liner coloured city backgrounds I do from time to time !!
However , also in the news today !!
-Came up with a super master plan for a super duper special edition super ultra limited edition secret stuff and stuff that will be on the ELECTRIC PUPERMARKET soon ... Very soon !! More details about this before the said "soon" !!
-One of the super masters of tattooing , def. up there in the very exclusive top 3 , guru of the "West Canadian Scene" , none else than Mr.Steve Moore has finally updated his web site !! ( well ... Maybe it's been a while but just noticed it last night ! ) It's very hard to navigate and very unpractical but worth every second of it !! A lot of new super masterpieces to be found !! Enjoy !
-And last but not least >>>>> The rules of engagement for future tattoo appointments with me are changing !! ( This does not concern people who have already started pieces !!! Old system still applies for all pieces in continuation ! ) This is for all new submissions starting from January 1st ! I'm currently working on a text to be posted all over that will explain the new , simpler rules , so ... More about this soon !!! I've just had to change the system ! Overwhelming demand + wanting to accommodate everyone + always making the best work I can = lots of stress and no time for anything else like eating and sleeping ! The new system should be way simpler too !!!
Until the next post ... May the colours be with you !!

YAM
The day's tat-doing !!
Don't do much of that stuff anymore ( Simple Classics Design/New-school thing ... ) But I guess once in a while ... It's ok ! Here's a good example of the genre !! Couldn't really squeeze in a bunch of naked chicks or a crazy , 5 layer city backdrop or even some retarded impossible mechanical contraption ... So just took the few lines I had and had fun on this for about 4 hours ! Will try to push it a bit farther with the colours ! And yes ! Absolutely ... No rip but def. very influenced by one of the masters of the genre , who's stuff I noticed , it kind of looked like while drawing it on this morning ! Out of nowhere !! ( I swear !! ) Homie Craig Driscoll ! ... Check it out live !
A week full of new pieces I gots ! So stay tuned if you like sleeves covered in mindless lines !!
Now back to work !! This book thing is quite the full time job !! Too bad I already have a dozen of those full time jobs !
Later , Liners and linettes !

35mm Canon/EOS + Neopan 1600 !
Much more pictures to come ... Just received about a gazillion new awesome weird films to experiment with + a few sweet trips ahead !!

Hawaii Morten came back for more colour today ! Didn't last as long as he usually does but , sometimes , you just have days like that , it's ok Morten ! We'll catch up next time !! 2 hours of colour later ... This is all I could take a picture of cuz of the glare !
This island beach party's about to get an uninvited guest !! Watch out !!!!!

Slide Vs C-41
More more and more Analogue love !! Can't get enough 35mm love ! I've always been a fan and just won't stop !! Sad to see it's becoming harder to get good films and more expensive to get it developed at good labs and just all around , more of a cult thing ! But I've been taking lots of pictures before the digital revolution ... Back when it was just "taking pictures" and will most probably stop only when no more film is to be found !! Here's film number 2 from this week ! An other slide film experiment ! This time with a real camera ! Here it is !!
35mm Canon/EOS + Provia 100 F !
Lausanne CH : Downtown/up on the roof tops
Copenhagen : Train/airport
These last ones were taken very early in the morning after taking my homie Jesse back to the airport ! It was a bit of a grey sky but still pretty nice with the slide saturation and very long exposure times !! Absolutely love em !
ROCK !!

Later , sketchbook eaters !!

Congratulations
From the bottom of my heart , congratulations to all my American friends and their new President on this historic day ! However , even though I truly believe that the new President elect , Obama is the best possible candidate and the most well meaning person for the job , I wish him the very best of luck and cross my fingers for him , for he just inherited one of the very worst and hardest jobs in the world in the worst possible times !
Good luck and let's see what you can do !!

Day off ...
Mhm ... That's right ! After all the work is done ... A bit of a break is always nice !! Nothing like a little rest to admire one's accomplished task !
Also in the news on this delicious day off >>>> After many hours of nagging ( spread over the last few years ) , my friend Jesse finally managed to convince me to update my Myspace space ... So if you're a regular here ... Nothing new for you ! But apparently updating stuff on your Myspace space once every 2 years is not enough !! Let it be known !
