I pretty much have my mind set on him doing my sleeve, the realism of his work is too amazing to pass on | I emailed him a while back and he hasn't responded either. I really want him to do my piece as well but when I'm just going to start looking for new artists.

My arm is bradley gobiel from atomic zombie in edmonton, and my chest is pat berube here at port side. I got lucky because I wanted work done here so badly, and pat and bradley are good friends from edmonton, with very similar styles, so picking an artist here was easy. May 31st I'm heading to whistler for a drawing appt. with justin ormiston. Fucking stoked!

some guy got a tatty of a tiger with no eyes filled in it from Trigger Happy. Is it Jay's style to not ink the eyes?

Maybe he is superstitious, your not suppose to dot the eye on creatures you tattoo on your body as the animal will come alive and if your not strong enough to carry the essence of the animal horrible things may happen to you.
All bullshit if u ask me my dragon has it eyes dotted and I'm perfectly fine.

Its's an Old Chinese superstition, some mural and painting have no dot in the eyes too for this reason. I just saw a gangster in Tst the other day with a horrible dragon tatttoo with no eyes.

but i also have heard that story about dotting the eyes will give the animal a soul/life or whatever. it's all up to perception i guess. i also read somewhere that chinese says 5 koi's is eternal goodluck and japanese says 7 koi's is eternal goodluck...
