Gemsbok Rally 2011

It seems a rally has a few effects, wild sex, great parties and nine months later a young one to remind you. This guy came in and wanted his daughter's name done, Mikayla, which I have to say is a beautiful name, and now goes along with a beautiful tattoo. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the final product.

 doing some good old skin prepping and applying a stencil.

 One of the members of "The Mutts" based in Kathu, the loudest, hardest and most social of everyone there. Truly one hell of an experience.

Yep... vague memory, blame the beer and lack of sleep. Though if I remember correctly he came in for the touch up.
 

Talkative guy, not drunk, just busy. Another mutt :)
Feels like they were the main guys there for their ink.

With a skewed smiley on the one arm, and 3 thick stars on the other, I fixed it in such a way that it now has 3 stars on both arms and a smiley that can no longer be found. Really solid cover up.

Seems my wife really likes to go wild with the camera once there is no tattoo in sight...
Fortunately it does look better than my desk at home.

The start of a very... very... long tattoo!

Start of the tiger

Still making progress on hardly any sleep.
 This is what loss of blood looks like after about 3 and a half hours. Could probably be quicker, but the face and paws really tend to suck you in.
 A better facial shot.
 One of my alternative butterflies, blended a few colours and this is what survived.
 The reason I got into this. Making women scream! There is just something in it. Though I think it was more nerves than anything else. The next day she actually came back and is looking into an expansion.
 Now here is the touchup that I did on a few pics earlier, he looked drunk and I looked busy.

These are the pictures I actually remembered to take. If you were one one of the people there and I did your tattoo but forgot to take a picture please mail it to me, and I will upload it asap.
