Our Brave Little Toaster.

Yesterday our friend Mel finally went in for her first tattoo. Here is the photographic adventure!


We went to Sinnin Skinn and she chose Madd Matt to do her tattoo. Here you can see him placing the transfer onto her shoulder.


Here she is checking out the placement. She liked it!


Here is the "blueprint".


Mel was quite nervous but she still managed a bit of snark out... Okay, a lot of snark.


We were a good distraction!


The filgeree was put into place.


Getting little by little done.


Madd Matt was hilarious. It was a lot of fun being there.


Here he is working more on the dragony-insides.


Meanwhile, Mel is reading her Kindle.


Steady as she goes.


Still not finished but it's getting there!


Tah Dah!!


Finally seeing his handiwork!


YAY! She loves it!

  2. I think it's awesome too. Later, when we were in Chicago I put some more salve on it and the colors were setting great! The greens and details were becoming more pronounced. I can't wait to see it when it's healed.

  4. LOL! Rachel, that's EXACTLY what matt said! "Go big or go home!" :P it's really healing well, and the colors are really starting to pop. of course people at work randomly walk up and peer down my shirt, but it's to be expected. :P
