I spotted Colin one afternoon while I was waiting for another tattooed individual to get off of her cell phone.
(Not only have I come up with individual terms for things that are associated with inkblogging, but I follow a code, as well. One of its tenets is to never bother someone talking on a cell phone.)
Colin ambled by and I bounded after him, stopping him and asking about his tattoos.
His left leg is covered with traditional flash, from swallows and bombs, roses, death's head moths,
and a pin-up girl, done in the Sailor Jerry style.
He explained that the sleeved left leg is a result of being "overzealous and excited" about tattoos.
Usually I try to talk about one or two pieces, but because most of his work is just flash, I captured most of his calf.
No fascinating stories to tell, just tattoos.
Thanks to Colin for sharing his ink with us here on Tattoosday!
