WIP, doing an 80's hesher theme (other patches include Cirith Ungol, Queensryche, Rush, Exodus...). Might chop the sleeves. Got a lotta studding to do still. And it could be yours! It's an XL, 1969 brand, and if you claim it we can finish customizing it together. Otherwise I'll keep adding to it.

The back of a light blue wash denim jacket with a large Motorhead strip patch across the shoulders, a green Metallica "Ride The Lightning" back patch in the upper center, and an Iron Maiden "Killers" strip below that. The center panel and part of the shoulders have chrome studding along the outer seams.

Freshly buzzed melon, oiled and manicured the Lemmy 'stache, feeling the breeze.

The first piece we tackled today. I came to my artist with a vague idea and he whipped this up in just a few minutes. We are very close to "finished" with my forearm, mostly down to weird lil guys to fill in gaps after this.

A fresh black ink tattoo on a white person's forearm of a centipede with an eyeball for its head, and with spiked links of chain connecting the front half to the tail section.

One of 2 pieces we did today. Still needs black fill-in & purple outline, but we ran out of time & I ran out of endorphins (I'd already sat for another one before this). RIP Brodie Lee Ink by Will Oblivion at Persevere Collective in Westminster, CA

Vibes were kinda uneven last night, but seeing Forbidden do a one off hometown show was awesome regardless. Cynic kinda bounced off me, but my partner loved it (the folks into it were hella into it). Doomsday needs wider exposure, they are the best kind of neo thrash from the Bay.

Another day of considering abandoning social media entirely, or at least everything but Discord.

Copped a few days late due to finances, but it's finally mine and I'm reading it in the park. Been reading @evandorkin.bsky.social comix since I was like 14, having all this in one volume is truly a dream come true for my nerdy ass.

A comic anthology cover with 4 angry nerds (the Eltingville Club) in the 4 quadrants & Milk and Cheese shouting "Onward! To Mayhem!" in the center. The title is Nerd Inferno the Essential Evan Dorkin

"if it's outta the bag then it's outta the bag... ...now that is a powerful cat!"

A white person's calf/lower leg with a fresh tattoo of a black & white cat in the traditional "Lucky Cat" pose with one paw raised with the pink pads facing outward. The black is like a mask that covers the eyes & ears but not the nose. He is based on Mochineko Hachiware aka Daryl Takahashi.

ALL CAPS MF! RIP DOOM Might go back to add ALL CAPS text later, but for now just stoked to have a tribute to one of my favorite emcees/producers of all fucking time. My boy Will don't miss.

Anyone trying to go to this? It's my birthday weekend & so far pretty much everyone has had to back out that was supposed to go with me. Imma still mob solo regardless, but it'd be cool if some chooms wanted to meet up.

Did I wait like 7hrs for a discounted tattoo that took ~15 minutes? Yes. Do I love him & plan to get more from the artist? Also yes. Check out Sheena at Moth & Dagger in SF, she's hella chill & wildly talented (this lil fella doesn't really convey just how skilled she is, he's just cute af)

A white dude's upper forearm with a small fresh black ink tattoo of a smiling Kirby with a butcher knife placed between older healed tattoos of a death knight & a wizard (also in black ink).

Before & After. Finally covered one of the worst tattoos on my body with something way cooler.

A white person's leg with a blown out & faded barcode tattoo overlaid with a stencil for a new tattoo of a dungeon cell window with skeletal hands holding the bars & evil eyes. Text around it reads "YOU'RE LOCKED IN HERE WITH ME!" in a plain handwritten style.

I made my own RABM (Red And Black Muppet). Very fun workshop, I hope he isn't my last.

I guess when you block someone who admits to being a "former" white nationalist they put you on their "Red Flags" list in retaliation. sorry your casual attitude about being a whole ass nazi makes me suspicious of your sudden advocacy for marginalized people, bruh.
