V Fuentes with 2 Mad Huero, we met him last month in Austin. He has his whole body tattooed, VF only has his upper body in progress so natural took second place to this guy. 
I guess he's second to none.



My new client and friend, Ettore', finally got the opportunity to show the judges his recent,
taurus and scropio tattoo.
We met Ettore' last year at this same show, he was interested in getting tattooed at the show but instead he decided to come to visit us in Austin and get tattooed by me in a more relaxed environment.

BlindSiders watching the judging, while wisdom and I are still Slinging Ink!


The highlight of the weekend was, "Victorious" Fuentes
taking 1st place Full body over 2 Mad Huero.
I guess he is  second to one, now. 

Keep an eye out we got it on video!


The judges said it was quality above quantity that claimed our prize.


I don't know if they really liked our work or were just  drunk, 
because I don't think they noticed my lack of ink.
