Postmasburg Trip Report

Well our Postmasburg trip turned out to be much busier than originally thought. For the weekend we stayed at Duppie & Rynet Du Plessis. I would like to thank them for their hospitality and a place to sleep during the hectic weekend!

I started off with a design that he wanted, and we started just before midnight Friday evening, after about 5 to 6 gruelling hours this is what we ended up with after his 1st session. This is the man with more balls than anyone I previously encountered. He sat for the entire time, with hardly any breaks. His next session we will be getting his blacks blacker, and adding some colour.

 His wife decided on a small and elegant design, something I think fits her quite well.

 One of their friends showed up and wanted a small fairy. Took much longer than expected, but then again, with certain jobs you just have to be that extra bit more patient.

 Her 1st tattoo ever. She was nervous and expected way too much pain. After sitting for a few minutes she got comfy and all continued without a whimper.

 This is the 1st bit of work, for a larger piece that has been done, it took around 3 hours, and so far much more progress was made than what I expected was possible.

 This rugby player had his 1st done, after looking at the design for a while it starts to grow on you.

 Friends sometimes wear matching clothes, hair accessories or a variety of things. What do others have?

Matching tattoos.









If you look closely on the picture on the left, there is a tiger... Really, I promise.

The cover up is in progress and will take another sitting or two to be completed.

I would also like to thank Rynet & Duppie Du plessis for their much needed hospitality over the course of the weekend.
