A Little Bit Of Everything

Got a little mix of doodles that the guys here at the Bunker made over the last couple of weeks.

Yet another owl by Willem.
 Looks like owls are going to be the new thing in 2012. Wolves and koi fish are sooo 2011.

Mehdi finally got to finishing the feng huang sleeve, a lot of color and detail went into this one.

Kraken lady with skull and roses on the lower leg by Roger.

Florencio finished up this Mary and angel sleeve a couple of days ago.


Last but not least, I got two little script pieces by Willem.
Got to love what the later one says.

300!

Pow pow pow!
First post of 2012, 300th post total!

Happy New Year everybody!

I got a couple of picturas por mi trusty readers.

First off, a chest by Mehdi, wich is actually finished already. I can't find the  finished picture, so you'll have to do with this one for now.
However, Mehdi did post it on his Twitter, maybe you can find on there, while you're at it, follow the boss man.

Also I got this koi sleeve by Mehdi, wich I've had lying around for almost half a year now, maybe it's time to post it now.

I only have a little Phoenix by Florencio.

He actually finally got a smart phone, so he's figuring that out and posting more images on his facebook, with a lot of in progress work you won't see here on the blog, so go and befriend him aswell.

Willem decided to extend his urban-zoo animal collection with a Pigeon and a Trout.

Roger finished a samurai tiger.

 Bet you didn't know tigers can be samurai!

Clever Aint Wise

Owls are a group of birds that belong to the order Strigiformes. Most are solitary and nocturnal. Owls hunt mostly small mammals, insects, and other birds, although a few species specialize in hunting fish.



Unlike folklore has it, owls aren't very smart. There are no known records of any owls having college degrees. Let alone attending college in the first place.


Other interesting facts about owls:

- Unlike their color would suggest, owls do not taste like chocolate.
- It’s a well-known fact that owls do not pay taxes.
- In ancient folklore owls are viewed as harbingers of bad luck, ill-health, or death. The biggest thing I´ve seen an owl bring is a large-sized rat.

Don't Be Dumb

A stupid little girl once said that skulls are overrated in tattoos.
Whereafter a very wise man replied: 'There's nothing more awesome than skulls and snakes. Full Stop!'

Knowledge, Secrets And Strange Heart Shaped Street Lights

A little photo update for all my trustworthy readers.


A little key by Florencio. What will it unlock you ask? Propably nothing, since it's not a real key. But it's cool and simple, so I thought I would share it with you.

 A hearty lantern by Willempie!

EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW!! NEVER SEEN BEFORE (well maybe if you have Willem on facebook) but other than that NEVER SEEN BEFORE!!!

 A Owl still in progress, so you'll get the bigger picture when it's finished.

It's The Little Things In Life We Forget

Whassup whassup!

Back again!
Again? You ask. Yes again, I say...

Anyway, where was I?
Oh yeah, the little things in life... I got a couple of smaller sized tattoos for you guys.

King B by King Willum
Life's a gamble by his royal highness Willum the great.
A little one Florencio did on a friend and fellow tattooer from Argentina.

Roger the fierce got to get nasty with little Xanthe's palm.
He also got to do the nasty on this other girls shoulder. With a little framed picture.
And, with that we conclude todays picture section on the blog.

Now, some of you sharp-eyed observant readers out there might have noticed that, yesterday the blog changed yet another 23902 times.
That however will no longer happen, since I'm sticking with how it looks now, clean and simple.

Now go tell all of your friends!

See you all in Brussels.

Unfinished Business Getting Finished And Stuff

Got a couple of unfinished pieces that got finished and healed and what not and a Medusa by Florencio.

 Florencio finished up this one with a couple more details, now it's done.

The dragon Willem did came by with its client, to get a photo taken of the healed piece.

Medusa done by Florencio, still not completely healed, but you get the idea.

And last but not least, something different by Willem, two origami butterflies.

Scriptdump!

Hidy Ho folks!

Got some script photos by Willem and Roger for you guys.

B.E.A.R.D.

Today is a huge day for awesome radical mankind. As for this day marks the official date that B.E.A.R.D. was founded.



The Bureau for Extremely Awesome Radical Dudes is an organization founded by Willem Jansen and Rudolf Maartens, charged with protecting the world from stuff.

It maintains the services of several supernatural persons, including Willem and myself. The B.E.A.R.D. originally appeared in Willem's head this morning, but has also been featured never before.

B.E.A.R.D. intends on recruiting all of the worlds most extremely awesome radical dudes into the hugest awesomestest radical dudes organisation on the planet earth world.

If you think you have what it takes, go and add yourself to our organisation at B.E.A.R.D.
Do note! there are some strict admission requirements that you will have to meet, before we will fully accept you as a B.E.A.R.D. agent.

For once, you actually have be able to grow beard on your own without the help of any known artificial hair growing substances (sorry Roger, nothing personal).
Also, you will have to be extremely awesome and radical. (Note the name of the actual organisation.) And you will have to be a dude, so no women or animals allowed!
However we would consider extending memberships to dogs and really smart monkeys aswell.

Picture Dump

Willem stayed true to this customers vision of his tattoo.

Florencio. Not finished yet, needs some more black.

The Wolf is Loose

The hero of the gods
The crossing of the threshold
The belly of the whale
Refusal of return
Hollow eyes
Dry pale legs
Howling on
Through fields and graves
Language of the signs
Symbols to our sight
Guardian to thy throne
Take on form
Daylight
Hide the skin
Cut it off
Scatter ash in the wind
Shapeshifter rolling on winds of tyrants make
Fierce lore of fanged horn
Danger all the way
Night's sea reflection
The faces of bodies slain
Returning to the form of natural human's fate
Grown from the cold
Spirits unclean
Dealer of the days
The ice will thaw
As the soldier walks thru the crimson side
Researchers of aftermath
Dispelling disarming man
One-toed horses subject of Genesis
And the immigrants
Fundamental side of a human mind
Hulder folk and fairies
So believe
The hero of the gods
The crossing of the threshold
The belly of the whale
Refusal of return

10 Bucks For The First Person...

...that can tell me what Willem is tattooing here.

50 Gazillion Degrees

Oh how I love the smell of a tattoo shop on an extremely hot and humid summers day.

I would have never known how many different smells and colors sweat can come in, if I haven't worked here.

What a wonderful life experience this day has been for me.

In other news: Willem got to finally finish the dragon he started a couple of months ago.

Ricardo Tornado

Guy walks in, wants a tornado sleeve.
We were like wtf?
Willem was like okay.
We were like, wanna see this happen.
Willem gives Guy this.
We were like wtf!

This Post Was Totally...

Quick! Hide The Evidence

Willem killed two dragons with a bat today!

Two dragons just minding their own business on a cloudy spring day.

When all of a sudden Willem the barbarian, kicks in the door and smashes their faces with his bat.

Part Deux

Half done, Half healed, Half fresh, makes 1,5 tattoos!

Trippin Scrippin

A little script by Willem.

Don't Ask

Willem enjoyed himself a bit too much with the tattoo he finished today.
After the tattoo was done, he was still rubbing it in with lotion for like half an hour.

 After he got a bit too exited and we had to remove him from Roger's knee hole.
