Hi and welcome to my blog! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting and do come back.
What an incredibly long day. All admin aside (it’s really not that much of a big deal to discuss) I was awake at 5:30 am yesterday. which meant a very, very long day for me.
Had breakfast with a friend who is moving to Australia today. Big move. Then misjudged my timing and thought it was 9:45 but it was actually 8:45. An entire hour early. Anxious and waiting for the tattoo parlor to open.
Eventually it opened and I was the first in. First come, first serve. And I was first.
I’m not going to blab on too much. I must say though, this one hurt, alot. I had forgotten how much it could hurt. And I had underestimated the pain relative to the size of the actual tattoo. So before I bore you, here’s the gallery.
W00t! Its beautiful!!!
Looks awesome dude! Hope the tattoo artist had some interesting stories to take you mind off the pain and the long day!Shame it hurt? self-induced hahahaha, no but seriously it looks great!
Dude! That’s fucking epic. Much respect…!
Thanks guys! Glad everyone digs what they see!
@Cath - Thanks so much and thanks for all the twittering!
@Jase - dude, so self induced and I swear i was shitting on myself for putting myself through it yesterday, fuck it was sore. It’s pretty sore right now.
@Rich thanks alot dude, glad you say so, with your tatts, I appreciate your opinion!
AWESOME!!!!! is that the african continent?
Miss Ritz, you are spot on, it is the african continent!
Wow, looks painful! Hope you’re stoked with it Nic..
Ohhhhhhhh. It is gorgeous! Very, very you!
Scary shit… I don’t know how you can even begin to think about doing this…..!
Nic, serious question:
when do you plan on having the word “arsehole” tattoed on your forehead?
okay, that wasn’t really a serious question.
Seriously cool, but Jesus Christ on crutches you sat through four hours of agony to get that. Did you swallow any Myprodol before hand or was it neat? Eish!
Nope, no painkillers, no anything, just a bottle of water and the 4 hour hotseat!
Hey nic
can you tell me where you got that tatoo done. looking for a professional place to do mines.
Hey Sc - I got it done in Sandton City. On the ground floor towards Edgars on the left hand side. They are great there, It’s my 3rd tattoo by them.
