Saturdays last too short

It was such a cool day.

Busy start in the early afternoon thanks to Dickens Festival in Deventer.

 I was pleasantly surprised by Hanneke with her tasty Darth brownie and Edwin's kung fu movie.

 Thank you so much guys! It's like Xmas started a bit earlier this year.

And here a tattoo that I did today. Damn pity that time shown his mad qualities and run out before I could finish. 

Il Vero Amore

Today my appoinment was cancelled. I tried to fill it up but it didn't work out.  I was stuck with unfinished drawings for big projects so I couldn't work on anything big today.
Asmidin came today to check on his dragon sketch for his sleeve.
He thought it would be good idea to do something small... and he got home with this:

So again "Thanks Asmidin for saving and making my day!"

We know who we are when tested

The first one went well and found his owner quickly.

Since I have a lot of hudge projects I need some smaller pieces for a change. 

So here is the 2nd round. 

I think, if time allows, I could keep making one-off designs every month. That would be great. 

Anyway, the rules are quite the same as before.

So,  first comes first served!; and I want to do this unchanged (I might add some shading in the background if needed) and this design must remain in full color so no black & gray!

 If you want to get this piece on your skin, send me an email titled "We know who we are..." to 

jankowzki@gmail.com 

or come visit me at Kynst (from wednesday till saturday between 12 and 12:30) to book directly an appoinment for february 2012. 

Don't send me any masseges on facebook. Sometimes I can't open my inbox there. 

If you are interested send me an email instead of comment, that prevents confusion. 

Thank you for reading.

Take care.

And look him straight in the eye!

Butt frog tattoo exchange

Yesterday I tattooed the godmother of my sister. She makes crazy delicious and crazy good looking cakes. Just incredible tastes of all kinds of flavours and a huge sugar bomb. That's what we all could use yesterday: a big sugar calorie bomb.
She is also nuts about frogs... can't explain it, all I can tell is that she collects all kinds of different frog figures. No Kermit's. Just frogs, like those green ones that swim in the European rivers. And she wanted to get a green frog as a tattoo.
So we kind of traded cake for a butt frog tattoo.

And here the mighty delicious Kynst cake before it got cut and eaten. Yummy!!!

Sneak peek

An old classmate of mine came by today to work further on his leg. We shared our comic obsession during school and he always mention  to get Cover image from Witchblade tattooed. 
So here a small sneak preview of how it turns out till today.

And then a bit of  Greek mythology...
