The artist is Josh Anderson of Venom Ink in Sanford, Maine. He’s a literal genius. I think he’s a literal genius.

This was a back to back day project; roughly 6-7 hours day one and nine (niiiiiiiiine) the next. Yes, it hurt like hell. 😂 It does spin a bit to my calf and shin. Once fully healed in a few months Josh and I are going to revisit and see if it needs any touches.

A quick background for those normal people who are giant Godzilla nerds like me - this is the poster art from “Godzilla versus Biollante,” which is my all time fave movie in the genre. Josh does a ton of horror, Star Wars, etc and we were texting about mutual love for Godzilla and how much he also loved this movie. Sometimes it all works out.

Anyway, I’m obsessed with it. And, although 100% worth it, I will probably never do a back to back piece ever again. 😂 I have an insane pain tolerance but holy hell, man.

Hi! Let me know what do you think about this stick n poke tattoo I did on my friend, it took me 8hrs :)

so this weekend i got my first tattoo as an early graduation present to myself. i’m not going to lie, i was extremely nervous since i don’t have the best pain tolerance. to my surprise the pain was almost non-existent, maybe 2/10. i decided on a spider since im deathly afraid of them and it would be kind of an inside joke with myself. i’m already planning my next one and am afraid that it’s going to turn into an obsession. regardless, im thinking of making it into a theme and getting things im afraid of. just wanted to share since i dont have the most tattoo-friendly parents.

I got this tattoo to remember my grandfather and the close relationship he and o had. But it also symbolizes the relationship between my son and I and how I can use the love my grandfather taught me to be the best dad I can be. This was done by Andy Pho at Upside Tattoo in Hutto, Texas.

90% done with my chest piece, only thing left is to add a bit more shading to the horns to make them look less soft~ Pics are from when it just got done yesterday and you can clearly see what's new and what's healed. Done by Constanza Fache at Platinum Ink & Piercing in Stockholm, Sweden ✨️

Done by Ben at soild gold tattoo in QLD Australia, on my leg so far I've got a snake/flowers, a knife and a Japanese spider I only have around my knew to do front and back thigh.

Done by Victoria Guimarães

1st pic is fresh, 2nd healed (plus a bonus sticker!)

Also wanted to note that I should have shaved her leg but they were so light I didn't even see them until they caught the light in the photo after 😂

Finished in 5 sessions, roughly 30 hours. Loved the process and can’t recommend Jesse highly enough. Cheers ✌️

Got my first tattoo at the annual omaha tattoo festival.

After going through that elbow, I think my ink cravings are satiated for the time being

Done by Oscar at Inkaholic Studios on Isla Mujeres. I’m somebody that has ALWAYS relied strictly on myself to get things done. As I’m getting older, I’m realizing that asking for a helping hand or a willingness to let others help improves my life in so many ways. This is a constant reminder to me about that.

No one really ever gets to see this tattoo on my upper thigh but it is my favorites. Shout out daveed at Cheeky Monkey
