It has been a while, has it not my friends?

Sorry I havn't posted. A few things have been happening, weekend partying, tattooing getting tattoo'd and other stuff. I've been gearing up for christmas something rotten, I got an advent calender and everything. The shop has been running ok, considering that its nearly Christmas and its been really dead up until now.

Dave's Mickey Sharpz and my SPECIAL mug.

Monday was boring.

So we made this out of my Pannini box

And I had my fingers finished.

 There was a blackout in Idle so me and my friends decided to make the most of it and crack open the rum

Any way, thats whats been going on in my life, nothing super interesting, but it's all I got. I'll be sure to get some more posts up soon. Cheers

Samiam - She found you. AWESOME SONG!

IRONRAT!

Bradford's finest southern rock band! Check them out HERE

Another awesome sci fi thriller!

Exploding Sharks. AWESOME!

The deed is done, half of it anyway.....

That's right! I finally had my god damn forearm finished! Big thanks to Nick Boccaro at Bradford Ink. Cheers for putting up with my constant bitching!

The design is taken from a secret puzzle you need to put together, and it creates a toxin that kills the androids, don't deny it. They're coming!

I finally had my other hand done.....

It, as usual hurt like shit, but it's finally done. YAY!

Saturday nights doings!

Well, very sorry bloggers. I haven't been very faithful to my interweb lately. Well, it's been a hectic, drunk/hungover/heartburned weekend. I'm not touching a pint for ages now. So tonight, me and the wifey went to go so Robery Downey Jr's new flick, Due Date. It was absolutely amazing. Go watch it, you'll love it.
More tattooing shit to come also!

Broken macbook screen and an hour and a half of hurt!

Well, there has been bugger all to report as of lately. I finally got Assassins Creed Brotherhood, which is absolutely awesome!
In other other news, my Macbook screen is absolutely knackered, as you can see here. But it is getting sent away to fix soon, thank christ!

 

That picture was taken as this post was been written. 

Also, as you know, I tattooed a friend of mine, Robbie. The one with the cross and two roses on his arm. He now wants it sleeving. I finished the line work on his forearm yesterday, but didn't get the picture of it, but here is the work I did with the sharpies!

This was fixed afterwards by the way!

I'll put the pictures of the line work up after I do the next session. And there you have it. Thats been what I've been doing with my life over the past few days. Cheers for reading! Much love y'all!

Cats in bomber jackets, and owl's in suites!

Well, yesterday was Wednesday, it was my day off. I had absolutely nothing to do. So, as I said in my last blog, it was back to work. Again, bugger all to do. So we decided that it was finally time, to tattoo Birch, as everyone in the shop has tattooed me, but I've never had the chance to tattoo any of the other staff. So I got the chance to brush up on my black and gray and give Mathew some PAIN!!!!!! As I said in the title, it's an owl in a suite. It's not finished yet, but whats there is good enough to make it look like a finished piece.

 

the beagle i mentioned in the last post....

....."Disappearing into the fog like a god damn yeti!"

Well now I have mid week day off, I can get some blogging done! The week started hellish, as every bus and train in the entire country was on time on Monday, except the ones i was getting. I was nearly on time for work and when I got there, there was absolutely nothing in the book, so apparently there was no one in Otley or the surrounding areas that wanted a tattoo. So, as Dave wasn't coming in, or anyone else for that matter, me and Tom decided it was finally time that he wanted me to tattoo him, as I owe him for the work he did on my fingers. We spent the entire day trying to come up with some designs, we finally came up with something, however, once the transfer was on, it was too small, and wouldn't look good any bigger, so back to the drawing board.

After a few coffee's and other caffeine stuffed beverages, we still had nothing, and it was closing time. So then I went off to the bus station and scurried on home. Where I did nothing until I got a call from my friend who wanted a piece on his arm, and I was board, so BACK TO WORK!

 the photos don't do it justice! 

                                        

Tuesday started interesting, the whole West Yorkshire area was covered in fog, which then vanished, but it remained in Otley. It was like descending into the abyss as we came into Otley. It looked awesome!

Then the night ended in me drawing something up for Emma, which, to my disappointment, ended up been to big for the wifey's arm. So that's my homework for today. I might also pop into the shop to tattoo mathew later. More on this later. So anyway, here's a video of a beagle. (In the next post)

And to end the weekend, this little portion of amazingness!

Chistmas yo! The advert is finally on tv!

 

This clearly means the Christmas is super super close!

Assassins Creed Brotherhood:Codex Edition, Now pre ordered!

Yep! So now you'll know what I'll be doing with my free time! You should all buy it, go do it now!HERE!

DOG!

This is Marley, that deranged dog i once told you about. He's a Labrador/Doberman cross. But we have seen fit to call him a Dobador.

             For some reason, he has more than one chin in this picture, I think i need to put him on a diet. FAT DOG!

Finally, this weekends rediculous alchohol consumption can be laid to rest.

This weekend has been fun, but I have drank way too much, as I don't want to turn into one heavily tattooed alcoholic who we don't care to mention anymore. So I went up to the white bear, and ended last this weekend there. I only had a few, and didn't spend to much money. In short, I had a good night, a lecture of the older generation about the silly amount of tattoo's I have. So then me and Emma retired home to watch western movies! Awesome!

Last nights happenings.... To today's.

Last night, I decided it was time to spend some of my hard earned cash and play out with some of my bros! I met up with shaggy (the dude with the handlebars!) and one Ste, and Mr Chris. All this playing out led to a few things done at ste's house, and them back home to a packet of cheese and onion.

Shaggy, as per every friday and saturday night, was totally mangled, which led to him coming into the shop this afternoon, to try and apologize for any grief he caused me last night. There was none, but to see shaggy so battered after a night on the Magners was cause enough for me to feel better about my existence, and the fact that for two thirds of the night, I was drinking like a lowlife on my own.

Today I woke with no hangover, which shocked even my dog.
I then took it upon my self to show the amazing, yet relatively small collection of buddahs and swastika stuff I own in my lodgings. I also took it upon myself to take a photo of my already half scoffed breakfast (they we're shreddies by the way).

I then hauled my arse to work, only to discover that we had like, two bookings in all day. After paninis and biscuits, it was early close and pub time, as it was seemingly obvious, no one was going to walk it, as it's Otley, and no one wants tattooing this close to christmas.  But, out of very little that got done today, I got this design ready for out Polish friend in the sandwich shop next door but one.

And so now, it is time to hit up my missus's place of work. I shall send words onto you're screens either later or tomorrow for you all to digest, think about and enjoy. Happy Saturday y'all!

And now...... Some brutalness!

The Wifey!

Easy now bretheren! For those who know me, you'll know I have a wifey called Emma. She too has a blog which can be found somewhere around here. Check out her blog, if you can't be arsed with mine.

In Loving Memory of Surrealism! Its almost a year old!

This is an animation me and a few buddy's did at college, all about Surrealism. It doesn't actually follow any kind of specific story line as such, which makes it a surrealist act nonetheless.

The shop.....

Welcome to Maganda Tattoo. Home to David Hansbury, Tom Riley, Mathew Birch, and yours truly, Liam Hunter!
Not a lot went on today, but as usual, it was good fun. The tattoo at the bottom is the highlight of the day, by Mr David Hansbury.

Check this out!

Carved in ashes first gig (Halloween!)

Bradford Rios. Awesome night, not so much drinking as I'd have expected for all that loading and unloading gear. And getting all that zombie make up on was shitty!

My Horse is Amazing

Finally!

And its about god damn time! I'm finally "blogging" I'll get my shit together soon enough and get some art work/tattoos and other stuff like my travels and so forth up. So anyway, just so you know I'm still here, here's this.....
