#YOUTUBELIFE #TRAVEL #VLOGGER

Hey guys! How are you? How have you been??

I have yet again neglected you guys but I have been trying to give you something else instead. I have been focusing so much on trying to get my Youtube channel rolling and I still need your help with this! Please, if you aren't already, go subscribe to the channel HERE. It means a lot to me and it will help me making the channel better and reach a bigger audience. So please go subscribe, share the channel any way and any where you can. I really really appreciate it! 
I have been trying to become better at filming and editing so that it will be something to look forward to look at! I am trying. And I am learning something new about the whole process every time I sit down to do a new edit. So stick with me and be a part of the Vlog gang from the start and see it grow to something great! 

To stay on the subject of the channel, I want to ask you guys about what you want to see. 
With the big USA motorcycle trip coming up, I have been watching a ton of review videos on gear, bags, packing tips etc. and a lot of it is shit... and a few helpfull. Seriously, I don't need to see you open a box with a bag in it! I need to hear what you think about it and what it is good for! So I have been thinking that it could be interesting for some to see how we will go about packing for this trip and what gear we use and what works for us and the trip we are heading out on. So let me know what you think. Should I do some more in depth videos on stuff like that?
Right now I am waiting to hear back from a bag company that sounds pretty much perfect for my packing of photo gear as well as the normal things like clothes. It has been the hardest task to find a bag that works as a travel bag, a photo bag and a motorcycle bag but I might have found it! I have reached out to them and hope that they want to do a collaboration with me on this. Hopefully that could be the beginning on something awesome! We will see. 
My friend Sascha and Vater Und Sohn have already send me a goodie bag for the trip! Thank you brother! See the video HERE.

Speaking of the trip... go follow us on Instagram HERE. 
We will obviously be posting photos from the trip but we will also be sharing info there on where we will be next, where you can come hang with us, where to come buy us a beer or give us a highfive or maybe come ride out with us. So Please go follow and spread the word! 

I am almost done with a batch of photos from the Thailand trip so drop by my photoblog HERE.
Hope you will like the photos there. Would you guys follow a Uncle Allan photo profile on instagram? I realise that most people are following the unclea profile for the tattoos but I would like to share more of the photos I do without feeling guilty for sharing NON-tattoo photos. What do you think?

Ok, we can't have a post without some tattoos in it, now can we? So here is a random drop of some more or less recent tattoos I did. I better stop this survey post before I bore you to death! But guys! Please give me some feedback on these things either in the comments here, on my own instagram or the Motor Running or my Youtube channel. I would love to hear from you and to know if there is anyone out there still.

But since you like tattoos so much, go check out one of the videos on my youtube channel with me tattooing... I will make it easy for you.. just press HERE

It was your heart on the line

I always love when my work days seem like a mix of work and hanging out with friends. Had one of those days yesterday with our buddy Jon who came to get a little love declaration done. Ms. Ama'r.
A good day with a lot of good music makes a good day at work. Yes sir.

Eckel got the debut album from Mumford And Sons from one of his customers. I had seen one video from them that I really liked but didn't really know what to expect from the rest. You see, I really REALLY hate Irish-kinda folk music and it doesn't get better if you mix it with other genres like punk. No I REALLY don't like Dropkick Murphys!! But these guys somehow managed to slip through the hate net. It didn't take many beats either to convince Jon that this was some serious awesome shit. That's why this video is dedicated to Jon and the proud ship Ms. Ama'r.




A last little update on the San Francisco art show. Here is some cool pictures from the opening night of the "Sream With Me" show at the 111 Minna Gallery. You will have to scroll down almost to the bottom to get to the event.
The show will run for a few more days and all the remaining paintings can actually be bought by contacting Angela by mail for prices and info. Write her on angelarachelleholmes@gmail.com.

upon the wings of Blaaaaack!!!

The opening of the Scream With Me show in San Francisco was a few days ago so I think it's time that I show what I did for it. All 3 paintings are A3 size (+ frame.) and are all for sale at the gallery so hurry up and go there if you wanna get away with one of these evil ladies.
If anyone have been to the show or go there please let me know how it was. I wish I could have been there myself because there is a whoooole bunch of good artist in that show. Pheeww!!
Hope you like the gals... but what's not to like? Sex, skulls and corpse paint. Am I right?

So here they are. Let me know what you think.

I Scream

You Scream

We Scream

And of course this post needs some music video as well. We can't stop the video madness just yet so here is a bit of...mmm... mood music.

One that I like:

...and one for the fancy makeup and funny faces...I mean evil faces...yes!

...a little tip: Try watching the last video without sound...not so scary any more.

In other news...

This here post will be a information post.

First off; Booking!!! Yes! One of the most FAQ! Now we finally have an answer to that question. This is the real deal people. No matter what you have heard about how impossible it is to book with me, it's not true. It is possible to get an appointment. Maybe not next week or month but it's not impossible. You still have to get in contact with my wife Amalie to book with me but she has made a really cool system to try to avoid and slowly get rid of my waaaaay too long waiting list.
Please go to the shop blog HERE. While you are at it check out how fancy she made the Conspiracy Inc. blog. So check out the FAQ there and also please just take your time to read the booking rules/instructions. It all there...everything you need to know. Just take your time. Ok so one more time for the cheap seats. To see how to book with me...go HERE. Thanks to everyone who is patient enough to wait and get tattooed by me! I really really appreciate it!!

Next topic. Japan!! Yep we are going back to Japan... soon. We will be in Tokyo and at Ink Rat from the 5th of November till the 4th of December. To book an appointment with me there you will have to email Hata at Ink Rat Inkrat00@yahoo.co.jp (that's cero's in the end..NOT o's). But to avoid any misunderstandings please send me an email with your idea, placement and size to Conspiracyinctattoo@gmail.com
Still not sure what to do or where to write? Go HERE.
I am gonna have some vacation and some painful sessions with my good ol pal Shige so I don't know how much I will be working so hurry up before the Vacation Fever sets in.

What else...

Again, and this will not be the last time I mention it, GO SEE THE "SCREAM WITH ME" ART SHOW IN SAN FRANCISCO!!!
Check out the site HERE
I will post pictures of my 3 paintings later but I want to wait till after the opening party which is tomorrow. All 3 painting are for sale at the Gallery so if you wanna own a nicely framed painting cheaper than what I normally charge then go see the show.

mmm...what else...

well due to temporary loss of internet I forgot what else to inform you guys about. So that's it.

Here is a picture of Martin's arm. This will be a sleeve of satanic goodness. This is the first part and you can look forward to see the next part soon as he has 2 more sessions this month where we will ad a wolfheaded priest with 13 eyes and antlers...WHAT? Yep! That's gonna happen!!
But for now, here is first part.


Tomorrow I will finally get to see my good friend Jacob play with his band The Kandidate. They will be on tour with Volbeat and Entombed in Europe so go check them out! So far I have missed out every time they have played near me so I am excited to finally see them live.
So why not throw in a little video for our music video marathon?



Some of you might remember him from the good ol days with Hatesphere. I actually even tattooed Anne from the video today. You can go check out the progress on the shop blog.



This video was actually my original idea for today's video part of the post. Nothing to do with the rest but I wanna post it today anyway. Moooody!!

Sunday

Happy Sunday everyone.
I have been editing pictures for Amalie all weekend. We had a photoshoot with Christel and her sister Jacqueline to show Amalies hats. It was an awesome day and a real educational experience for me. I got to try out different gear and figured out a whole lot about light and composition and stuff like that. So now I finally found the time to edit them. Normally I prefer just taking the picture and make it as good as possible on the camera so I don't need to do any Photoshopping later. I like to take the picture as if it was film. For me that is more photography than if you just snap a picture just to photoshop the shit out of it later. For me that can seem more like photoshop art than photography but in this case I wanted to go crazy and have a old picture kinda look. What I did/am doing is that I have taken a bunch of pictures that I am happy with as they are but then on top of that I edit them to make them look like old Holga-ish pictures with grains and lightleaks and all that shabang. Holga...So hot right now...Holga!
I will post some soon when I am done and Amalie has posted them on her etsy and blog.

I guess I better show a bit of skin to keep you around so here is another lamp...Yes he also loves lamp.

This Music video part of the post is dedicated to my homies in Cancer Bats. A small selection of their videos that I really like. Enjoy.

London is the reason

This weekend we went to the London convention. Usually we have a great time there. This time...not so much. You see, a few days earlier I was foolish enough to stand outside in the cold and rainy weather painting the frames for the artshow mentioned in the previous post (SOOO stoked to be in that!!)...wearing short sleeves!! Great idea! Awesome! Well thought out plan chap! Well of course I caught a cold which not only gave me the worst plugs in my ears on the flight but also meant that I had to cancel working on the first day, Friday! Sucked BIG TIME! Fortunately that meant that I could walk around and talk to people and buy stuff. All the things that I never have time to do on the conventions. I hadn't booked any one in since I was just gonna do walk-ins from pre-drawn designs so no one had to get canceled. Saturday was better in the way that I actually did one tattoo. Felt better but wasn't in super shape so Amalie made sure that I didn't overworked myself as I usually would. That resulted in a few disappointed people but what can you do when your nose is running? Sunday I upped it and did two tattoos. That's right!!
To all of the people who I have met this weekend: I hope I didn't seem to far away in my head. I tried my best to be present the whole time but it was a bit hard once in a while. So I am sorry if I seamed a bit...off.

I am not really sure if this booking plan worked as I wanted it to so I don't know if I will do the same thing next year or try something else. I do know that I hate to disappoint people so I might think of something else. Sorry to all who had hoped to get tattooed! Maybe next time.

There wasn't much partying going on. Thursday night I was out and asleep before 10 at night. Never happens!! The rest of the weekend was pretty much, Dinner and off to bed. But it seamed like we weren't the only ones who were lacking energy this weekend so at least we didn't feel too guilty for not being the big party animals.
But it wasn't all bad. Good friends, nice customers and awesome people in general made it worth the trip and we also got a few awesome presents to bring home with us.

Adam Hays Gave me this bad boy!! AMAZING!!!! You rock dude!!

The picture is from his website.

Dan Smith gave us a print of the painting he did for a Sea Shepherd art show which is a good motivator for me to get started on doing one too. I have had planned to do a charity painting for Sea Shepherd for a looooong time now so this might help me to get started. Thanks Dan.

The best part is always to see those people we only see this one time a year. Even though it might only be for a few minutes it still means a lot. So to all our old friends, It was good to see you again, and to all our new friends, it is a pleasure to get to know you. See you all again next year.

So here they are: The 3 tattoos from this years London Convention!

The OHHHH so evil goat from hell! That's right EEEEEVIL!! Notice the upside down cross of BONES and the word WRATH written in dripping blood!! EVIL I TELL YOU...NOT CUTE!

Ok so we are back to the music video part! YAY!!! Right?? Well it's one live, one real video and one song with a fan made video but I wanna share these 3 songs.

These 3 should have been posted a while ago since we listened to that a lot...and I mean A LOT back a few weeks ago...but then again...we still do. So here is 3 of my shop favourites at the moment.

SCREAM FOR ME SAN FRANCISCO

Hi ya'll!
I'm back. Back from London. Back to a more daily routine. Back to this blog.

Before I get into all the things that I have been up to I would like to start with this post. This has been one of the reasons why there has been a lack of posts here on the blog. I have been invited to join a group show in San Francisco called "Scream With Me". It is an honour to be among these people, a lot of whom I really admire. I don't even understand that I was asked to be a part of this but I am stoked about it and I just wish I could be there myself to see the show. If it wasn't for our recent trip to the London convention (see following post) and our upcoming trip to Japan, I would take the trip to SF to be there at the opening. So if you find your self in the area please go check it out and represent me.
I was asked for 3 paintings so I decided to do a series around "scream". "I scream", "You Scream" and "We Scream". A bit cheesy perhaps but I hope people will look more at the paintings than the title. I'm not gonna spoil it for the gallery or the people who wanna go there so here is just a small tease but I can say this much...If you like chicks and corpse paint and bit of erotic then you might like these 3 paintings.


They will be for sale at the gallery so if you wanna own one of my originals framed in a nice matt black frame then here is your chance.

Here is the flyer.

Well, I'm not gonna let you hanging there after a tease so here is a painting I finished a while ago. Just got it framed today and finally got to blog it too. It is already hanging on our Conspiracy walls so come check it out if you are in the hood.


I was gonna continue my music video thing and I will but I think this is fitting for the post. Enjoy and see you soon. More posts are coming in a bit.

ohh shit she's a golddigger!!

Here it is! My latest life sign! I wanted to do a nice long post with what I have been up to but now I have to go to work. So once again, please be patient with me...more will come. But at least I have some picture for you to look at!! Right?!

Go see the rest of this piece on the conspiracy inc blog soon!

Aussie neck.

Swedish leg on a leg...and tits...no, really!

This Aussie was supposed to get a neck piece but ended up getting this instead.

I have been wanting to post this video for ages...well since it came out but havn't had the time to post anything as you might have noticed. But here it is now. I have this idea about putting music videos in the next couple of post, just to share what we are into at the moment. Anyway, I found this other video featuring Cee-lo Green doing a Band Of Horses cover. A bit heavy but I posted another Fuck You video to make you feel better again. I guess that's the new official video but I think I like the simple one better. Well enjoy! Now I gotta go work!

Blood cleanup aisle 3

We just got back from California today. Miss my Californian buddies already!!
I am sorry for the lack of posts but with hangout time and work and friends we weren't left with much blog time...BUT...
Klaus made this video while we were hanging out together. Returning to one of the many supermarkets that we have roamed and goofed around in. The video was shot on his new Canon rebel something something and edited in his lunch break. But if you ask me it could have been made by a pro!! A real Pro and I think Slayer should hire him to do their next music video. Until that happens we will have to settle for this little masterpiece. Prepare for pure thrashing metal mayhem...I give you:
SLAYER, Raining blood, Klaus style!!

WARNING: This video contains heavy material like Bacon drumming and Pentagrams on freezer doors.

Slayer Grocery Store! from Klaus1985 on Vimeo.

You're welcome, Slayer!!

I hope I will have time to go through some pictures soon so we can get this blog back on it's feet. Can't promise too much. I am back at the factory tomorrow where we also will have some cool peeps visiting for a few days but more of that later.
