Went London Thursday n Friday to start my new left sleeve,

Iv been lazering for over a year and now finally its faded enough n ready to start the cover up!

There is another reason why this is a tattoo I’m real exited about and it’s this, incorporated in my old sleeves was my nickname on my right arm and my old surname on my left. (chav)

I had my right arm lazered off n covered a couple years ago but obviously until now i still had my left sleeve, both of these names were representations of 2 people i no longer want any association with and i also have 1000’s of memories attached to these 2 people and nearly all are thoughts i no longer care to think about. All things i can now finally put to rest in my mind!
My life changed along time ago and so did the person i am but this for me is the final piece to the puzzle, no looking back!
In 3weeks my name change will be official and the transformation will be complete!

THE KING IS DEAD, LONG LIVE THE KING!

(The actual tattoo is by Matt Difa and it is a co-lab design between me and him which a similar version of will also be released as a Tshirt design in a few months time through Jilted Royalty)

As i mentioned before i have spent the last 4years finishing my place off which has taken so long due to me traveling a lot and also because my OCD takes over most of the time and makes my builders/friends panic to get it perfect so simple things take twice as long as they should!
….Anyway its finally done now and the pics will be on here soon but tonight i was looking through a site my friend showed me and the houses n design that has gone into the places on here is on another level!
I did all i could with the means/space i had available to me, but in the future
I WILL
have land to build a place like one of these on and do it totally from scratch in a distant location somewhere i find on this weird and wonderful planet!

( Then that will be on my blog also in about 5-10years time,
i am gonna be around for a while yet people! ;-) )

.

These are just a few pics i choose from the site.

I have always been into interior design and looking through this site my head is now racing like mad thinking about all sorts of designs for my next project!
Checkout the site, mentally good and mind blowingly inspirational!
