A year has passed already, at the speed of light. I've been stationary, possibly moving backward since his death. I feel totally lost most days. He made a unique impression on most he met, whether you liked him or not you'd remember the first time you met Ian. This was his favourite happy hardcore tune I would take the phish for him playing it, as I can't stand listening to happy hardcore. All 3 of these beautiful souls pictured, have sadly left this realm, all of them with such big personalities, big hearts and big ideas and dreams. I miss them all. Opposites can work well together if you both have an open mind and are open to possibilities. I still detest happy hardcore, it still grates on my earnubs and i still physically cringe when i hear it. The hole in my life that he filled hasn't even started to shrink. 🖤🖤🖤 #missyou #deathisonlythebeginning #grief #tattooartists #tattooconventions #happyhardcore #playitloud #oldskooltunes #90srave #gratesmyearnubs

Used this emperor scorpion for a coverup of an old name and tiny rose tattoo on emma on friday, its a little different as instead of white we used invisible UV ink that glows blue under uv light... swipe through the pics to see the effect....cant wait to see it healed....💚💚💚 #scorpiontattoo #ultravioletink #handtattoo #blackandgreytattoos #coverup #highlightsmatter @oldempiretattoo #inkslingers #uvtattoo #tattoo #tattooist #tattooing #tattooed #dermagloink #aftercare #elgatonegro #elgatonegrotattoocare #tattooistlube #vegan #organic #vegantattoo #organictattoo #veganaftercare #organicaftercare #usethelube @tattooeverythingsupplies #totaltattoomagazine

My man from Portugal is hardcore, sat for a 9 hour sitting on this upper arm second session of hand drawn Polynesian yesterday, part stencil with around 50% freehanded on so it would wrap right round his arm, thats a full wraparound shoulder to cuff sleeve in 2 sessions, total of 17 hours with a couple to go on the mask and a few possible touchups...💚💚💚💚💚 #TattooNearMe #TattooStudio #TattooShop #polynesiantattoo #OldEmpireTattoo #toparmtattoo #tribaltattoo #tattooist #tattooing #tradtattoo #traditionaltattoo #oldschooltattoo #polynesiantattoo #polynesiantattoos #tattoos #tattooed #allegoryink #aftercare #elgatonegro #elgatonegrotattoocare #tattooistlube #vegan #organic #blackpanther #organictattoo #veganaftercare #organicaftercare #usethelube @tattooeverythingsupplies @totaltattoo #totaltattoomagazine @oldempiretattoo
