I go to Thunder Rose in Smithtown ... i have a girl Jen that i met at another shop but she just moved there ... it's run by an old timer been there for about 14 years and she moved there to help him get a younger crowd in .. right now it's a biker type place ..but good location and she does great work ..she did the Kio and the Lotus (cover up) on me ... I'll post pics of those again.

If anyone on LI is looking for someone let me know ..i'll give you her info .. :thumbsup

Nice work. I have a large Buddha sitting on my upper arm, sitting on a lotus flower with Naga coming out from behind to protect him from the rain that is falling. It's a scene from part of Buddhas story.

So far it has about 10 hours in it. Not in color yet... not sure if I will or not. The shadow look is kind of neat on it.

good colors. :thumbsup

how much it run ya? looks awesome with the color

Wow, great tats there man! :thumbsup

fully sleeved by summer :1orglaugh :thumbsup

look very cool and painful

sweet stuff.... I'm afraid of getting one I think I need to get drunk to overcome the stingy thing

I love that image ... i was looking at it last night ... i just didn't have the room for that on my arm .. I have to work around some old tatts ... I'd love to see a few pics if you have them .. :thumbsup

it was $275 .. but gave $300 ... so far I'm in about $1100 with her .. :thumbsup

its good to always have Buddha with you. your tattoo rocks, man.

Looking good

Thanks .. it's a reminder .. I'm really trying to find true happiness ... :thumbsup

.. very nice indeed!

Very nice mike looks good

cool tats bro..

i dig the koi :thumbsup

Yea.. I love the koi fish

it sure stands out :)

looks great!

umm, dunno, too big i think..

looks great :) :thumbsup

but I like small tattoos ;)

are you a buddhist ?

Looks like she did a great job...very nice.

very cool

I'm trying .. there's a lot to learn but i do read about it and try to model some aspects in live around the teachings ... so i guess being that i don't study any other religion ... yes

thats gonna be one bad ass sleeve when ya done with it bro :thumbsup

i like the buddha

buddhism is NOT a religion , thats the first ROOKIE mistake

dont let ANYONE tell you otherwise

Beautiful work! I'm sure your sleeve will be sharp when it's all finished.

Wow.. just amazing coloring

It's more a way of living ... what I'm saying is that i don't practice any religion but i do try to learn from the Buddhist teachings ... like i said i still have a lot to learn but it is appealing to me ...
