 It's been a while. I can't see myself though. You can't see yourself? Oh, like the little screen thing. Mine is nasty. See, if you wouldn't have turned the screen, you would have known. Oh. Oh, like the movie. Did you have nightmares? No. I did. You did. I had nightmares. So yesterday we watched this movie called Summer or something like that. Oh, Midsommar. We only do this every 90 years. And it's like a two hours and a half movie. And it's creepy. It was a weird movie. It's a horror film. I told Kevin we don't watch horror films. He thinks it's the same things as a scary movie. And it's not. I don't know the difference. It's more like a blood. More. Yeah. And then scary is like ghost. What? You know. So we went to sleep, right? And I was, I mean, I was trying not to think about it. You know, but I fell asleep thinking about it. You did. Well, not too much. I woke up and next thing I know I see like a snake on top of you. And then he goes away. Like it just went. And I was like, I was like, nah, it's not real. That's your reaction. That's your reaction if I had a snake on top of you. Because I did. I know it wasn't real. Like it was like my dream, you know, because I woke up thinking like, oh my God, like it was a huge snake. I was trying to control myself thinking like it's a dream. It's a dream. You know, it's okay. I feel like that's going to backfire one day. Yeah, he'll like see something that's not there. So he'll like wake up startled and then he'll be like, oh my God, do you see that spider right there? It's on the ceiling. Do you see it? Do you see it? There's a bunch of them. And I'm just like, I was like, no, there's not. So yeah. So that was last night. Anyways, how's everybody doing? Welcome back to the in therapy podcast. He was Mr. Reyes and Resilient. So this weekend I did an outer sleeve with the theme of Star Wars. I can't say that. Like I'm trying to Star Wars Star Wars What the hell? If I just separate the two words, I can say it now. The two different words. Yeah, they are. Star Wars. Wars. Wars? Star Wars. Star Wars. Star Wars. Star Wars. I said it right the first time. I think so. Star. You went really bad. Star. Star Wars. I wonder how people in Mexico say it. Star Wars. The project took about 12 plus. 12 plus. The second day was 12 to 11. 10 hours. 10 hours. 22 hours. What was your favorite part of that piece? My favorite part of that piece other than you being gone for those hours. My favorite part even though the red is really vibrant the blue on the mask is really cool and I don't think I've seen you do something like that so seeing all the blues go from the blue on the mask to the blueish grayish on the background I think that really looks really really cool so I think that's probably my favorite. Sick. Thanks. For me I think my favorite part has to be the background. The bottom or the top? Because I feel like the background on the top and the background on the bottom they match and it's like a turquoise kind of greenish gray and I like the way I navigate it from dark to light to super bright to make it stand out I think that's my favorite part because I have never used those colors before. I don't think I would do cover-ups with color though. I'm not there yet. I'm not there. Who would have known you'd be doing a bunch of colored pieces? Right? So after that many hours my shoulder was killing me really bad towards the end after hours and hours of being in the same position and reaching for his thigh I felt like my shoulder right here getting numb for some reason it was such a weird feeling that every time I would stretch it would get numb and it would travel to my neck so I had to stretch every now and then and I was like oh my god that's killing me and I think the reason why I felt that is when I was tattooing the back of his thigh but he was already hurting from that position so I had to compromise my position so he can be comfortable because he was already in pain it had been like 20 hours or 19 hours later so I was like you know what I'll just twist my body sideways to reach that part of the thigh so I can let him rest but that being there for 2 to 3 hours killed me that good thing is it was towards the end he was not complaining though but I could tell he was hurting let me just reposition your body What's the most painful the most uncomfortable position you've had to be in for like a piece I think it's always the center of the chest like if I'm doing a full chest piece anything that runs through the middle of the torso sucks for me I don't know for other artists but for me it sucks because I have to my arms are floating on top of his body then my body has to do like a little you know what I mean? I have to be like this to reach the center so I can reach like a certain detail on it but if you get like a floating shelf like those tables and you lay on top of it and you're just like this like a bed for me God damn that could be that would be actually a lot more comfortable I could have just solved your most uncomfortable thing and you're just laughing at it so like a million dollar invention if an artist tries it let me know because he's just laughing at it next let's go to the segment of the tattoo nightmare of the week so this is the tattoo nightmare of the week so I got a tattoo yesterday and it's awful my friend had an appointment yesterday with this artist and hers came out good so I was like okay what I'm gonna do and as you can see on my last video I got shrek but I re-spun and I got a knife and I'm gonna show you what it looks like I got my money back so that's not the problem I messaged the shop owner instead of the artist because I knew that it was gonna be kind of you know weird so little did I know is that if you're an apprentice which she was, is that you are not supposed to work on hands you are only supposed to work on arms and legs and there was nobody else in the shop she was the only one there and she did my fucking hand and here's another picture for shits and giggles the knife is backwards why is the blade pointing that way and not this way what wait what did she say she said that she she did something and she first had gotten shrek and then she got a knife I'm gonna get a get what you get is it like a oh it's one of those I've seen people have this at their shop it's like a little vending machine or like a little coin thing and then whatever design that gives you you get it then there's a couple shops in Arizona here that have that too really when it comes down to apprentices it all depends on the mentor he says okay you're ready so anything that the apprentice wants to tattoo you have to run it by the mentor so he decides if you're ready or not in this case I'm pretty sure that the mentor was like nah you're not ready to tattoo hands because hands are tricky if you don't know how to pack in the lines or how to pull a good line it's gonna fade away so for going to just getting whatever you get a knife and you just be that size and you just be cool with it let's do it damn and you are a different kind of doubt I will save in this for next week but I'll give it to you now I trusted you fuck why did he make it an eye CIA humble that dude did that on purpose I trusted you I trusted you damn how does that happen look at the the different thickness of the letters you can tell that he didn't know how to pack in the clean lines so he was going over the lines over and over and over it looks like he went like embedded the skin like a lot like it looks like he did it with the paper clip you know how people used to tattoo like that dark enough look at how swollen it is Kaden Kaden you done fucked up what were you thinking Kaden alright I'll give you one more I'll give you three there's like chips some chips and salsa on the side oh my god what did they know they're at a restaurant it looks like a Mexican restaurant I don't know what I would say if I was their waitress and I just come off drop off the bill leave and this motherfucker is tattooing on the table on a serious note because it is a little funny but on a serious note that's very unsanitary oh well damn yeah I think we left sanitary a long time ago when that guy wiped that tattoo with his shirt not just on him but after they leave they don't know how to sterilize the table after that blood is just dropping on the table he's not using gloves why does he get the arm is right on the table maybe a drop of blood is gonna land on one of those plates which they're just gonna take it back to clean it the artist grabs the chip he takes his tattooing I need to be inspired I can't see he's definitely not an artist at all because he's not using gloves if he was using gloves let me tell you there's a possibility I wouldn't be surprised if that dude is an artist damn that's the sad part he could be an artist for me the weirdest place I've gotten tattooed has to be in my bedroom by myself that has to be the weirdest place so let me know what has been the weirdest place that you have gotten tattooed I really hope you guys don't have really bad stories about that drop the juice and thank you for joining us back at Ink Therapy we will be doing artist spotlight of the week that was super good Jesus I'm gonna have you do every segment so I found this artist his style is super different and I was like it's been getting shared on a few pages so it caught my attention and the colors that they use are crazy so his name is Gino Tattoo from Milan super cool piece full back piece you ready oh my oh my gosh that looks so sick that is insane looks beautiful it's a beautiful piece oh my gosh the colors the shapes the yellow it's insane to packing yellow like that oh my god these pieces are so different I think that's why it caught my attention because it is something that we don't see on a daily basis what would this style be called I don't know maybe like between traditional neo-traditional Japanese very talented Mr. Gino that is crazy and I think that's one thing that can make an artist stand out it's something that you don't see on a daily basis and that's what makes you stand out as an artist you know because you'll find like-minded people who like what you're putting out there and maybe some people find his page and they're like I didn't even know I wanted that style until I started your work I don't know I wanted my butt cheeks tattooed until now you know what I mean I'm pretty sure it didn't even went that far the client came in and she was like I want my back piece and then he put something together and he was like what if you know let's tattoo them butt cheeks and it's gonna complete the piece and then butt cheeks are hard right butt cheeks are harder you gotta stretch pack in stretch and pack in I'm not a fan I'm not a fan of butt cheeks you know what hahaha can we get back to the podcast I guess and I like how he put like the little like jam looking like right above the butt crack cause that gives it flow to the whole thing it gives it a shape it gives it a form it's very what is it called very unique not unique it's not like that it's very flattering it's very flattering for her body because it's kind of like shaping the body giving the bust look and it's it looks and thank you so much for joining us today for artist spotlight of the week Gino you did an amazing job we will see you guys soon congratulations Gino that too I thought I was closing it out that's what you get that's what you get that is that is what you get okay let me close you're just struggling today so we are back and now we're gonna be reacting reacting what the fuck I'm all over the place we are not gonna start answering emails and I do want to remind everybody that we are gonna be selecting a few clients and some of you might get the client I do want to remind you that when I choose this new clients I want to make sure that I am excited I am ecstatic to tattoo this piece I want to feel connected and that way when I choose that client I will give that client all my effort 100% everything everything I got and for the people who do get the client I am so sorry it is probably because I was not connected to your piece maybe it is not my style or maybe the cover up is a little too complicated we had a let's start with the guy who chose one of the priority designs yes so if you don't know about this page on the website it is a page where you can go and there is designs that I have been dying to tattoo so if you decide to pick one of these designs you are gonna skip the line and you are gonna be priority because it is designs that I cannot wait to do so if you are interested check that out and hopefully you like one of those designs it is one of one so as soon as somebody purchases that design it is out and I will take it out of the website unfortunately he said that he is in the military currently he will be in Australia until September he wants to know if he can get in in October let's try to suggest Sunday Monday 1 and 2 October alright so this next
