Been a busy month for me, but here's the down and dirty:
The tattoo is progressing nicely. We spent one session filling in some leaves orange on my forearm and my tricep. Wow, a little bit of color on my arm changes everything!
We also worked on the koi on my torso some more, filling it in with more black and gray. Next time, we'll put some color in there.

Speaking of Needles and Sins, while at the convention I finally got a chance to meet Marisa Kakoulas. She's the primary contributor / blog queen round those parts of the web. It was nice to harass her in person instead of just on Twitter for a change. (follower her here and while you're at it, follow me too here.)
Shinji was hanging around the convention despite the lack of an offical New York Adorned presence, and he was nice enough to introduce me to Bill and Junii of Diamond Club Tattoo Studio in San Fran. Good people!

Hi Mike,
Looking great as always.
I couldn't agree with you more about Junii and Bill.
I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with them about a year ago.
They are the definition of Good People.
I had my marathon sessions since I last wrote.
Six rounds in two weeks resulted in my entire right leg being about ninety percent lined and shaded.
It also looked like a swollen Italian Mortadella for weeks !
Its pretty nuts even by my standards, but I don't have the kind of frequent flier miles to get me to and fro to Europe for more sensibly scheduled appointments.
Shiji stopped by on one of the days....he was very encouraging.
I'm happy for you that you're getting so close to finishing ....you must be excited.
Keep at it, and be well,
Dmitri
Looking great! I am trying to get a hold of Shinji if you could email his info for the new studio that would be great. mattyb1@gmail.com
