gt tattoo

[David Lorenzato]

hi all, i thought i might share a pic of a tattoo i had done around a year ago. i was a bit shy of showing it off, because i had it done even before i had ever caught a gt, but now after losing my virgtinity im happy to show it off.

[Angus Hulme]

bit of pain getting that done David?

[Robert Palcak]

Mate that's wicked... nice art work!
I'm thinking of getting something similar done... god it's going to hurt!

[David Lorenzato]

must admit the closer they got to the arm pit, the more it hurt!!!

[MikeOsborn]

Nice work man! I got some work done under my arm a couple of months ago and it was more painful than any of my other ink!

got a Kingfish on my back soon to be joined by a marlin

[Luke Wyrsta]

Looks great David...

I'm in the process of getting a half-sleeve GT tattoo! 

[Robert Palcak]

I look forward to seeing your half sleeve Luke...
In a moment of madness, my fiance decided I was getting a tatto for my 40th!
Anyway, 14 hours later, this is what my artist came up with...

[Brandon Khoo]

you guys are crazy - what if you decided to give GT fishing away in favour of whiting?

[Robert Palcak]

Easy... lose a heaps of weight...

[Chris Young]

Nice work Rob..........go to be carefull though, its addictive

Like the beakie too!

Stuff that!
The deep blue is tough going... they go over it about 4 times... remeber that it's already welted after the first pass!
The inner crease of the elbow... not my favorite spot.
Under the arm... especially close to the armpit... has cured me of ever wanting another Tattoo 
I still need to go back after about 4 weeks for a final "detail" and "touch-up", but that will probably see me out for a while.
All the work was free-hand by an artist that had no idea what any of these fish looked like, but we worked out a plan together, he did his magic and I'm wrapped with the results. My poor photography skills dont do it any justice... looks great in real life.
