Mini earthquakes and Shiny Fridays!

Fuckyeahsnacknoodlesandshinnypantsoflondon!!!!






So much is happening since I got back home!! Which inevitably gives me very little time to talk about it here!! But soon!! I promise a major update of all my latest adventures as soon as I can!! Some doodles would be nice too!!

Until then... Friday night shiny pants and snack noodle shot, graciously donated to my ever growing shiny and chicken flavoured Ploggable collection, this time straight from Londontown... Just for you!!!

Just like sardines 23-26

Wednesday is obviously your weekly RED BOX dose day and this wednesday is no different...



Now I know I said I'd make a big update this week... And I almost did... I mean I got 10 pages done this week! But then it pretty much took me all week (most of them are over rendered too) and well, I'm gonna have a lot of stuff to take care of next week so... I'm terribly sorry but I've wisely decided to cut the load in two and sacrifice quantity for constants! Hope you understand!!

This story is getting more and more mysterious and oh so intense too... Ok ok... Check it out for yourselves... Your weekly RED BOX session awaits you >>>>

On the edge of my seat, let me tell ya!!! Next Wednesday might bring us closer to maybe understanding what the hell is going on here... Or maybe not just yet! Who knows...





Also in RED BOX news... Keep an eye out for that tab on the top left... (yes the one adequately labeled "RED BOX")! It will be a standalone post with the whole comic posted from the start so you don't have to find every post one by one!! Smart right!?

And thank you all for all the awesome comments about the said RED BOX!!!! Hugely appreciated!!!! I've been getting about one a day and it just really makes me want to do more!! You rock!


More Ploggings asap!!
Stay fresh!

The red of the streets



Quick little update...

Just re opened the EPTB!! Same old stuff (minus a few things sold on the road) but re opened none the less! Might be able to have some new stuff in there by the end of the month!

Also... I've been saying this for a while but this time it's true! Not my fault they is just slow out there... My issue of Tattoo-Burst (the Japanese one) is finally out, this time for real! Check it out yo! Have no idea what they're saying about me... Hope it's not too bad!!



Oh and here's my zine from that last night... Will definitely be doing more of these!!!!



More awesome news and stuff and stuff in the days to come!!!





P.s. Oh how exciting the next installment of the RED BOX will be...

Brussels'

Hey what-up!!??

Slowly getting back in the beat after a few days of staring at my ceiling and killing one bottle of Ricard after the other!!! Ahhhhh.... I'm back!! Words fail me... So damn happy to be back home... In my wonderful beloved HK!!!!! Ok ok... I could write about just that for pages and pages but I'll just skip that for now and show ya a pretty picture instead...

Here's the next Brussels Convention poster I just finished working on a few days ago... Just before I left Copenhagen town! It's a bit of recycling since all the time I could put on it was 20 minutes here and there between tattoo breaks! Sadly my Copenhagen tattoo schedule did not permit me even just an hour at the time on it! But finally I managed and I quite like what I came up with!!!! Have a look!!!



Can't get enough of this hand writing!!!! I wouldn't print entire books like that but a poster or a zine... Absolutely loving it!!

Also sadly... As much as I was seriously tempted... I just won't be able to attend this convention!! Just did the poster for it, not going! Putting it out there cuz I know I'll get e-mails about it! Also if you're waiting to see me at any convention... Don't! I just don't do them anymore, since 2007 to be precise!

Just come to Hong Kong!


Ok ... Got to go... Just found out last night that there's a zine exchange tonight and I actually managed to put a few pages together for it! Got to print it now! I'll post about it asap!

Ok Ciao!

Day 36 of 35 days of nights!




That's it that's all I is outta here!



On my way back to my beloved and dearly missed wonderful home as we speak! However, I really have to say once more that this whole trip was much easier than I had anticipated! All the work was awesome and all my Danish and European customers were absolutely fantastic!! The level of dedication you guys show is truly humbling and I try to return the favour as best I can with my doodle ninja skills!!! Every piece would definitely be a sure portfolio piece if I had such a device and the whole 5 weeks went by actually pretty painlessly for me!!!

Thank you all so much!!!!

Copenhagen and I have had our ups and downs but this town, when it comes to tattooing, has always been good to me! I will, once again, most definitely be back!!!


To all my Dansk homies I leave again! Thanks for understanding my crazy schedule and making time to come out and hang when my schedule allowed it! You're all the number one reason I keep coming back, it's true! I miss ya already!!! Allan the Dark tattoo ninja, Yellow Pants the dream catcher, Jorgy the Eckel, Lucifer supreme ruler of the underworlds, Commando Thomas the Zombie ready, Commando Mich the Asian Sensation, Phil the Power, Michelle who's not in Oregon anymore, Ailish from the greenest land...


... If you find yourselves missing me at anytime... Just park your polar bear war sled on the highest hill of this never ending ice desert, blow in your battle horn and look at the moon! I will be there... Looking back!



Ok ciao!
Catch ya later, here or there, as long as you're all happy!

Et Voila !



Done and done I tell ya!

Just finished my last hour of my last day's workings for this whole operation and I'm glad to report that, to my surprise, I have actually survived this mega 5 weeks of tattoo madness!!

And I must absolutely add, that without the obvious exception, it went pretty damn well! Lots of people came from far away, lots of awesome ideas were submitted, everybody lasted amazingly, all the "one-shots" got finished and a few older classics got finished finished too!!! It was a pretty damn good tattoo trip!! Thanks to everyone who booked and came from around the corner or the other side of Europe!! You all rock and I hope you're all happy with your sweet new tats... I know I am!!

Here's your round-up, catch-up, your final tat-a-matic mega post for operation 35 days of nights !!! The last few days worth >>>

JAVA-JANE AND THE OFFICE MONKEYS

Awesome "one-shot" almost not finished but then we actually made it!!!



JELLYMAID IN 3D

Oh that turquoise...



CROC'S GOTTA LEARN SOME RESPECT

The final piece of the trip... Finished a few hours ago...





I hope you've all enjoyed the show for the last 5 weeks! Sadly (for you) starting from right now, there might not be another tattoo orgy like this one for a long time! I'll always post my tattoo work, as I come up with it... I'll just tattoo work a lot less!

More updates and news tomorrow!
Now if you'll excuse me... I have to get drunk tonight!


Laters!

Nervous Nellie in the room

Some people should definitely never get tattooed!

Some 18 year olds are ready to get tattooed, some 40 year olds are to young to get tattooed! Some people are good to go whenever, some people need to go home and think about it a bit more and some people need to never enter a tattoo shop!!

I'll spare you the rant of the day and just show you what Nervous Nellie got >>>>




A sweet piece indeed!


Those who read this blog regularly know that I have in the last 5 years only complained about such things twice! It does take a lot!! Back up tomorrow with more sweet tats!!

Stay calm... Take it easy out there!!
