Its the cover of Strangers in Paradise volume 2 issue 12. Only outlined so far, but it will be colored with in a couple of weeks.

Heres the actual cover art. The tattoo artist had to draw in the rest of the hair and lots more of the bodies too.

He did a really nice job on that, Honus. He managed to keep the same style and feel of the original in all the added parts. I'm lookin' forward to seein' the color. This was your first tattoo, huh? How'd you like it?

Indeed, congrats on the piece. Looks like it is gonna be sick. VERY well done.

Yup... it was my first tattoo! I knew it was big, but it was the one thing of the list of things I want that I wanted the most so I figured if I was only getting one I should go with that one.

It really didnt hurt much. I mean it DID hurt in my opinion, but NOTHING compared to what it was in my head. I definitly want this one finished ASAP and then theres at least one more thing that I definitly want on my other calf.

Thanks guys!!

Thanks, Im really happy with it!

The Slapshot mask will be tattoo #2 with out a doubt. I wanted the Strangers in Paradise girls first because the picture means a lot to me and I love the comic. Plus I was unshure of the pain factor and I knew I wanted this one more than the slapshot mask so I got this first INCASE it 'hurt' to much to me and I only got one tattoo.

The guys name is Glen and he owns Bulldog Tattoo on Benefit street in Pawtucket, RI. I cant recomend him enough! He was SO cool and calm and just a really nice guy!

Got an appointment this coming Thursday to get it colored, but hes not sure if it will be all in one sitting or not.
