Around a month ago I got approached by somebody on behalf of Technodrome asking if i would be interested in him illustrating a piece based on myself.
I looked into him and this geeza’s work is SICK so of course I agreed!
My Artwork and Jilted designs come from a stencil based background so I can easily relate to his work!
(Checkout the vid below)
….Its not until you see someone in real life that you get a feel for a person.
Technodrome is definitely a genuine guy and very passionate about his work!
BIO
.
I wish him all the best for the future but by the looks of things he aint gonna need it!
Ill be meeting up with him in a few months when I hit NY,
iv got a few ideas in mind so keep your eyes pealed! 
ONE LOVE!

(His new website will be released soon!)
Got a phone call on Monday from Xed’s secretary to remind me I was
getting tattooed on Tuesday, as usual id completely forgot!
Wasn’t in the mood to work on my cock so decided to re’black my thumbs.
Planned to rework thumbs + palms sometime anyway, no time like the present!
Rhino skin!

Last Tuesday I headed down to see Xed for another sitting on my cock.
Once there we started talking shit (literally) as always and for some reason
I suggested we skip forward and start my arsehole.
Within an hour I was bent over the bench preparing
to be invaded by a very sharp instrument!
……..Were off!
As you can see nobody found it funny and they were all very supportive!
I cant explain the feeling of the tattoo except to say
IT WAS THE MOST PAINFUL TATTOO IV EVER HAD!
(And a very weird situation, I felt quite ….Exposed!)
….NO MORE!!!!
.
….Got back to the hotel, boxers RITT OFF!

As funny as it may seem I don’t really do the whole ‘plastic tattoo convention’ thing especially in the UK but London and a couple others I make exceptions for!
A perfect chance to catch up with friends from around the world who I rarely get to see!
1st things 1st Friday morning I went to collect the 1st version of the Jilted Royalty ‘X’ Great Frog collaboration ring.
Got to the convention late so straight into my day sitting with Matt Difa for final session on Reptile Read ‘X’ Wolverine sleeve!
Me, Matt + Claudia had a laugh man!HAHA (….Every-time is story-time!)
Ring could be spotted a mile off, was getting asked about it all weekend!
SESSION OVER!
Time to go see the sights!
Quick shoot with Nathen Hicks
Shoot done! ….Time for a few mixed drinks!
Because I’m a twat an couldn’t be arsed to carry a camera I didnt take ANY pictures at the convention and ALL the pics on this blog are ones people have emailed me!
Gutted that i have non of the IN-BETWEEN times at the convention and who I was with which were the best parts of the whole weekend!
Jee Sayalero tattooed my hand around 3 years ago in Milan, we’ve planned a few times to touch it up but just never ended up being the rite time!
UNTIL NOW!

All in all a good weekend!
For good + bad reasons this weekend was a memorable experience for me that will be added to my mental log, just another entry to be inserted into Read’s diary of life!
Life is 1 big lesson, NEVER FORGET!
