That's a pretty big piece you're getting! How's it been?
"Alright! Tomorrow is going to be rubbish, though, if I'm honest. We've so far done a full day on Thursday, today [Saturday] will be a full day and then another full day tomorrow."
Your skin must be red raw.
"Yeah, I'm in pain today, but tomorrow will be worse!"
You don't fancy a break between them?
"Nah, I'd rather bang it all out in one!"
Is this your first convention? What's it like being tattooed here compared to a shop?
"Yeah, it is; I prefer it here as there are more distractions. People to look at and talk to – in the shop you've got nothing but the pain! I'd rather be chatting with everyone, they're all so friendly."
So what's your tattoo?
"It's a back piece; it's a nun being dragged by a demon. I didn't have any input into the idea, but I'm getting these three day sessions for free, so I said to Tiffany to do what she wants. She's tattooed all of me and we've got similar tastes so I said she could have free artistic reign over me."
