Scottish Tattoo Convention

The Scottish Tattoo Convention has just been, and it was loads of fun! Loads of artists from all over came, tons of locals representing Scotland and people from Italy, America and all over Europe were tattooing and getting tattooed. I took tons of photos, on snapchat, haha so these are the ones I remembered to save while snapping.

Kris tattooed on the Saturday, I expected him to only do one tattoo and ended up doing four, so that kept me busy in the later hours, but we had loads of fun at our booth, even if it is a bit hectic working in such a smaller space than you are used to.

Dominika was tattooing on the Sunday, she ended up working all day on a massive calf piece, It was really cool watching that all come together, and I ended up getting a tattoo from DAP, out of Skingdom in Italy. All day Saturday I kept seeing the line drawing of this chameleon and I loved it so I ended up getting it. I also entered my leg in for best small black and grey by Dominika, which was an interesting experience as well.

All around it was a great show and I wish I saved more of my photos of other artists working but it was all so hectic I must have forgotten.

Dixon was also lovely and was repping my new stickers on his board!

More Tattoo Time

Whoop, I had a busy week last week, I felt like I was tattooing left right and centre! Though I guess it was mostly legs, but it was such a fun week, With Kris on holiday and Dominika and Joe unwell, Saturday I had the whole shop to myself which was fun and unnerving at times, depending when and what type of customers came in. But when Kat came in for her ship we just locked the doors as that was definitely going to be way easier than worrying about anyone coming in. The day before I Did Steven's Ghostbusters tattoo and finally finished off Dixon's smashing blouse we started ages ago! But we've now started another one so hopefully I can get him in next week to finish the pig off as well.

A couple weeks ago now as well Ross who got the pterodactyl (pteranadon) came in to get an old star filled in so I took the opportunity to snap a wee mostly healed photo of it from him as well.

Tattooing Update

I have been a wee bit of a busy bee, or possibly slow to update, we will call it a mix of both. But I have been doing some tattoos recently so my apprenticeship moves ever forward. Thanks to some of my lovely friends I have been able to make good progress in the past couple weeks and I am now up to my 10th tattoo, so thank you everyone who has helped me so far! I really appreciate it.
