Alright! So I finished session 4 with Steve Moore today. Another good session with lots of work done. Harder to tell with the pictures, but all the stuff on the left is new.

Dude, I've flown all over the world for my ink. It's not about what I can/can't afford. But it's like when Lil B all of a sudden doubled his rates. It pissed people off. And it's about what's...
I emailed Carlos Torres, Portugal, and Josh Duffy with a project to see if they would be interested. Duffy's assistant got back to me right away which...
I think it'll be finished by the end of year or the start of next year. Steve uses Saniderm, so I usually have a friend or family help me put it on. After I take off the Saniderm, I just keep it...
Steve really put on a lot of ink this time. I was shaking a bit during the first hour and not doing well with the pain, but Steve said to relax my entire body and left the pain "flow...
Session 2 with Steve Moore. Another 3 hours into the back. He wasn't lying that the lining was more painful than shading. But the shading is still pretty bad haha

I brought up the Monkey King idea to him quite a few times. It caught his eye initially, but he put it in the back of his mind to contact me. Guess he kind of forgot or was waiting until last year...

That's awesome! Where are you getting work done? If you are flying in from Australia, I can give you tips on travel. I made some mistakes on my trip that I would...
He's talking about maybe a trip to North America in the future. He was supposed to be at Ink and Iron this year, but a newborn baby had priority. I might hold out until he's able to travel. I got...
Day 3. I'll say that doing consecutive days is pretty straining. Not just the fact that I'm constantly under the needle, but everything I do is to prepare for it too. It's definitely fun and exciting...
So day two was just over 5 hours. This is my third time doing back to back sessions and I thought today would be pretty bad, but I lucked out and had some dull spots around my triceps. The dull spots...
About 5 hours into the second day. He's working pretty fast today and we are getting a lot done. Probably another hour to go. I'm starting to get just a little bit nauseous. Might be because I'm a...
