Porky, Rhino's & Yngwie Malmsteen...

So i just found the time to make a quick update...

I just reposted a few designs i have lying around, that i wanna tattoo.
So if you should get the urge for a nice custom tattoo, feel free to contact me or Porky Royale Tattoo for bookings :)

Yesterday, after i finished my last customer, i just doodled this little thing... yeah a Swedish Rhino :D

I also got to sketch up a Yngwie Malmsteen design haha... that guy is absolutely brilliant.
Yngwie is by far one of the greatest guitarists ever.... and he's also a hell of a character :)

So here you have it... The King of sweden, The Master of the universe, the one and only... Yngwie J. Malmsteen!!!!!!

Live long and prosper!!!!

Cheers

Copenhagen, Monkeys, 8-bit... & Dokken :)

Once again, it's been quite a while since i updated my blog...  But man, it's been hard to find the time to sit down and fiddle with my computer...

Things have been going great at Porky Royale... those guys are just awesome.

I feel so privileged to be  a part of that team.

They all make me feel very welcome at the shop, so everyday im looking forward to a new day at Porky's. :)

Im still so happy about moving to Stockholm.... i havn't had a single regret about moving here.

everything has so far gone beyond all expectations!

There's still alot of practical stuff that needs to be taken care of (personal numbers, bank stuff etc.) but im more less getting there now.

So i just got home from a week in Copenhagen... i was back at Stigma to work on a bunch of my danish customers.

I was booked up like crazy and i got to do some awesome projects.

(I got to contine on this 8-bit sleeve... so it's a work in progress)

(I shall call him Curious Killer George)

(Another game-related project, work in progress)

(A cool Amazone-theme halfsleeve i got to start)

Being back in CPH was a mixed feeling... i mean, it was great to see family, friends and customers...

but i didn't feel like i was enjoying being back in my hometown...

In alot of ways, that was nice because it just confirmed that i made the right decision about moving away. 

Maybe it was because i was in total "work-mode"... i barely did anything else than work and sleep haha.

The worst thing was that i missed my wife and son like crazy, so it's good to know that they will join me on my next visit to CPH in August, which also will include a vacation to Hungary :)

Today i had a great day with my little family... we spent the day in the sun ( except for the 3 hour nap i took with my son haha) and i got to buy a couple of excellent vinyls for my collection.

Tomorrow i'll be back at Porky Royale and i'll be taking walk-in's all week... so feel free to drop by and get yourself a epic tattoo :)

Cheers!

This is such a great place with the nicest people and a great atmosphere.

Goodbye Copenhagen, Hello Stockholm... See you at Porky Royale :)

Wow... it's sure been a while since i had a chance to update my blog...
I finally moved to Upplands Väsby - Stockholm and im loving it...

I've been without internet access for several weeks now....
so i've only been checking out my e-mail and Facebook, when i've had the chance to find some wi-fi...

The last 3 weeks have been crazy with my birthday, Kiss Concert, moving, packing, unpacking, getting settled... but now everything is more or less in place.
I can feel how im starting to relax and breathe again, moving here was the best thing to do...
My wife and son are enjoying it so much and it's nice to be so close to the forrest and lake.

                                              Yeah... im gonna go fishing one of these days :)


I've really enjoyed walking around Stockholm, finding some old vinyls for my collection and

                                                      Hair metal.... best stuff ever!!!!


I finally made it to Porky Royale Tattoo, and wow, it's such a beautiful shop...
People here are so nice and i felt at home right away.
Im pretty bookede up...I have a bunch of cool tattoo's im gonna do this week, but i still have a few openings left, so let me know if you wanna get some ink.

Also on friday, I'll be doing walk-in's all day... so drop Porky Royale Tattoo :)

Hopefully, it won't take me another lifetime to update my blog....
I'll be posting a bunch of cool designs the next couple of days, so stay tuned!

Kiss, Gangsters & Sailors...

Wow, these last days have been intense!

We finally got all of our stuff shipped off to Stockholm...

The moving-truck came and thanks to a couple of good friends, we managed to load the truck in no time.

t's kinda wierd to look at that empty apartment... i've been living there since 2004, so there's alot of memories there.

But now it's time for a change and i can't wait to get started :)

Work wise, i got to do a bunch of cool stuff these past few days...

I got to do one of my KISS designs on my pal Anders... He's a drummer, so "The Cat" was the natural choice for him.

 I also had a chance to make a small Al Capone design for at possible tattoo...

Anyone up for it? :)

And last but not least, i got to finish my Sailor Jerry chest on Niklas today...

He took it like a champ!

What can i say... it's been a good few days...

KISS & Businesscards ...

The 11'th of June one of my favorite bands, KISS, is playing a show in Copenhagen.... i can't wait :)

Those guys are older than time, but they still put on, one hell of a show!

So the other day i was thinking to take a little break from my Reptilian project, and instead do a KISS tribute flash set.

Today i had the chance to draw them... i had a lot of fun making these designs, and i can't wait to tattoo them (two of them are already gone).

Yesterday i also got my new business cards... im very please with how they turned out.

I had a friend of mine put the design together, since he's a photoshop wizard... and i barely know how to turn on my computer hehe

Check out my buddy Nicolai, he's a very cool guy and does very nice work
