Shine On A Rainy Day

Listening to Brent Cobb while making this here post.
How have you been?
I have been up to all sort of things! So many that it has been hard to keep up and get back on updating you few guys left here on this blog, but I haven't forgotten about you or given up on the blog. It's as always just really hard to live up to the standard that I have set for myself and the idea of the next post being really amazing. So instead of posting something, which would be better than nothing, no new posts makes it to the internet. Well, here we go again. Lets skip this and get into it. Let's try to reconnect. Let's get reacquainted. Let's get up to date.

Last time I told you guys, that my friend, Electric Pick, was in town, visiting. Yeah well... he is now living in the house and is working besides me at Conspiracy Inc. That's right OG Conspiracy crew back together again! He is currently taking bookings for both smaller and bigger pieces so get a hold of him to get one of his amazing pieces. Rumours has it that he has a bunch of ideas of new things that he really wanna try to tattoo. Especially these really cool flying or floating houses. Super cool ides...he just need someone to tattoo them on. Get on it people!

He is here to stay so don't be afraid to start those big pieces. You no longer have to wait a year for the next session. Hit him up on Pick@electricpick.com

Another thing that happened since last time is, that I have for filled another childhood dream. Getting a Harley Davidson. Since I was a kid I have dreamed about getting a Harley Davidson. For many reasons that dream had always seemed impossible and something that wouldn't be happening to me. But it did! Things fell into place and my dream became a reality in May after taking my drivers licence in the early months of spring. Here she is! My 2017 Harley Davidson Dyna Street Bob.

 Doing this, is one of the most amazing things, I have ever done and I can't believe where it takes me and what roads have been opened up to me... pun intended. I want to go places, I never felt like going to before. Since getting my baby it has taken me from Berlin to Copenhagen, Denmark. To Bergen in Norway. To Prague with my buddy Adam Guy Hays, who himself have been possessed by this love for riding a machine on two wheels. I tell you guys, all the cliches are real! It's all true! It is freedom on two wheels. What a feeling riding with the wind in your face, smelling your surroundings and watching amazing landscapes fly by. Things you never get to see or feel while driving inside a car.
I can go on and on about how great this feels and what it does to me but I don't think you would care and I don't think we will cover much more ground in this here post, so I will try to wrap it up as fast as I can!
But I can't let the subject go completely because it is a part of what is coming.
I will go to New York in a few weeks and I can't wait to go ride in the states with my Brother Adam Hays. This trip will only be a taste of what is coming. If everything goes as planned, we will be going on a longer adventure next year. New York to San Diego and maybe back. Unfortunately that won't be on my own bike, but there is a sweet substitute waiting for me and I am excited to ride through USA with Adam.
Should you want to watch some of my adventures on the bike, you can check out my YouTube Channel. I will insert a video here... Ok two....

First one of me and my beloved dog, Lucifer riding together.




The second one is from my ride to Bergen.




I'm still learning how to edit the videos and make it more interesting to look at so bare with me. I am also planning on doing some Vlog episodes soon so stay tuned for those... even better subscribe to the channel and since you're there anyway maybe press that like button.
I want to make stuff happen on the channel and I hope it will encourage me to keep this blog alive running alongside the videos.
I hope you guys will help and encourage me on this new travel. This new motorcycle adventure is something that I am very very passionate about and therefor something I want to share with you all. Hopefully you will all come with me on this ride and see where it takes me.
To begin with there will be mostly motorcycle stuff on the channel, but I am planning on mixing my tattoo life in the videos from time to time and sooner or later the channel could become a good mix of both. But let me know either here or in the comments on the channel what you guys think and what you would like to see. One thing I will try to maintain on the channel is to keep it positive so keep it light people. There is too many keyboard warriors out there. If you don't like the videos... then just don't look at them. No one forces you to look at them. It's your free choice, so keep the comments constructive and positive to improve the content.
Looking forward to hear from you.

My special little guy, Lucifer,  have had a rough year with an operation for two slipped discs and a new allergy, but this 13 year old puppy is tough as nails and keeps going strong. After a period of dog physiotherapy he is back to being his playful self. From barely being able to stand to running and playing again, I am happy to say that Lucifer is back to his normal self.
He actually gets excited when his motorcycle bag comes out and I ask him if he wants to go ride the motorcycle. Best!!

Kinga have also been daring enough to go on the back of the bike a few times. I hope to be able to share more trips on two wheels with her.

Now I think it is time to look forward a bit. We can't keep dwelling on the past, now can we?

I wan't to announce a few travel plans for the future. I will update the list as we go but here is what I know for now.

October- November 2017 -Riding with Adam Hays and eating delicious food and drinking tasty coffee in New York.

But for now you can get your hands on this burning hot item. Get yours before I run out of your size.

Ok before this gets out of hand and gets toooooo long I better get you guys a couple of tattoos. That is usually why you guys are here, right?

Before I go I want to mention that since I will be in New York this year for Halloween there will be no Halloween walk-in day at Conspiracy Inc. THIS year but we hope that we can pick it back up next year. So start thinking about something cool to dress up as next year for the Conspiracy Inc. Halloween bash!

Lats thing, I will open my bookings from now till February 2018 so send me a mail on onkelallan@gmail.com to book an appointment. As always, let me know what you want, where you want it, how big you want it and when you would like to have it done. Anything to make the booking process easier and faster. Thank you!

Looking forward to see you soon!

Almost done

We are getting close to the end of this year and personally I can't wait for it to be over. This last year has been a ride for sure. This last year has been filled with a lot of challenges and I feel that with the end of the year it might soon be over. At least it will get easier from here on out. I know that I'm gonna do what I can to make next year a whole lot better. I have a whole lot of things planned already and these plans makes next year look a lot brighter than this year has been. I don't mean to make it sound like it has been a totally shitty year but I do feel that next year will be better... I can feel it. 

There will be tons of changes at the shop and I hope that with more balance in the shop and my life I will have more time and energy to produce more. So many projects have been put on hold because of what has been going on around me and my shop. It's time to get back on track, to get back into the game and I'm excited about it! 

It will still take me some time before everything is the way I want it but as long as I can see that I'm heading in the right direction then I'm happy!

As always I can only thank all my amazing and supportive customers who have been patient and understanding. It means a world to me! I can't wait to see you all and hopefully a lot of new people in the new year! Thanks for letting me do all the fun tattoos. Thanks for all the good talks. Thanks for all the great, fun presents! You are all amazing! I truly have the best customers!!

Now down to business before I have to go to the other blog and work there...

I have been slacking a bit getting started on the bookings for the next couple of months. As before mentioned, I will only be booking about 2 months ahead of time.... no more ridiculous waiting list... Just a couple of months at the time. This is better for me so I can travel when I want. Take time off to do other projects and fix the shop and my home. Now, since I have been a bit lazy there is still a few openings in January and February. To avoid getting too far behind with the bookings I am also opening up bookings for March. So if you want to get tattooed in January, February or March then write me an email to

Onkelallan@gmail.com 

with what you want to have done, where, what size and what ever else I need to know to book you in. Please try to gather as much information in as few mails as possible since I am taking care of all my email by myself now and therefor don't have as much time to write back and forth. Thanks! 
... I might go to Bergen, Norway in the end of January or in February so If you let me know if you want to get tattooed in Berlin as soon as possible so I know when to go to Norway. There is a guestspot involved in the trip but I will announce it if there is any open spots left so check back soon. 


I am looking forward to be back at the Brighton Tattoo Convention this February. As last year and as at the London Tattoo Convention I will be doing Walk-ups from premade designs. No bookings so just drop by the booth and see what is available and say hi. I hope to have some more new merch with me too... we will see.
Speaking of...
There is still a few shirts left in the store so head on over to Conspiracyinctattoo.bigcartel.com and shop.

This brings us to the last point for today.
One of the things I have been wanting to do at the shop is to make a small selection of originals for sale. I am planning on making it a permanent thing, that there will always be a few framed small originals for sale at the shop... in case you feel like buying a small piece of art for you wall after getting your tattoo. I will post some pictures of this soon... frames are almost ready for the first batch. Soon....

Now picture time!

So with this I wish you all a happy New Year! See you in 2015 

HO HO HO

Whether you choose to believe in a god or not I wish you a great xmas. For me it's all about the amazing food and great company and not about religion at all. But that doesn't mean that I can say thanks to all my friends, family, colleagues and customers with a little xmas card. Taken..hmrrr hrmrmr.. on our winter cabin in the Alps where we like to go a jodle from time to time. So however you choose to spend this time I wish you all the best. 

See you all soon!

Ich bin ein Berliner pfannkuchen

Sooo... It has been a while...again! This time i feel more than ever that there has been a good excuse for the long break. You see, other than being super busy working and making stuff ready for the London convention, we have been waiting for some news. News that I felt was so important that I needed confirmation before blogging about it. 

Some, or maybe even most of you already know about this by now but for the rest of you, here it is...

Conspiracy Inc. including Amalie, Lucifer and myself (and all our stuff) is moving to Berlin. Yes, Berlin as Berlin, Germany.

There is so many things to tell about this new adventure of ours and I am sure that many of you will have many questions about this. Before you spam us with all these questions, take a look at the Conspiracy Inc. Blog and also keep an eye on it for further updates because this thing is so new that we still havn't figured everything out yet. So please be patient. 

So from December this year we can be found in this red building of ours in Schöneberg, Berlin. I know that it is short notice for those of you who haven't finished your tattoos yet and I am sorry about that. Just be happy that we didn't move to Japan. I will try to come back once in a while but I don't know when or how often so please remember that Berlin is right next door. I am planing on working weekends if that can help people out a bit. I have to say that I am super happy and grateful that all the customers that we have told this has been super excited and supporting about this and we are looking forward to see them in Berlin. But enough of this. Again... Keep an eye on the Conspiracy Blog for updates.

This place will be epic, I tell ya!! If you thought that the old Conspiracy was awesome then wait till you see this place! See that red building in the picture? Yeah, thats all ours to play with!! Whaaaaat? Yep! This will be our home and shop and playground!! I could go on forever about all our plans but I feel that I need to get this post finished so it can hit the internet in this century!

I so wanna talk more about the move but let's move on a bit! Other things is going on while we are planning our next step towards world domination.

For example the London convention. 

I decided to continue the walk-in flash thing from last year and it was a success! Working like that makes my convention so much easier and stressless... well stressless while I'm there because as always I have to make stuff in the last minute before going. This year I wanted to do some new paintings for the convention. This resulted in a brand new Rose flash set. 5 sheets of only roses. This came "handy" at the convention where I ended up free handing 3 hand roses from the with the set as reference. Awesome!! I finished a few other paintings that we made a limited run of prints of plus a few older ones that I never got to print before. There is still a few left so check out Conspiracy Inc. merch section.

I also did a few tattoos from last years metal flash but I am gonna save them for the ongoing Black Metal Book project so you will have to wait a bit to see them.

Preview of the rose flash. For sale on the conspiracy Inc blog.

As always we were working together with the awesome and talented Chriss Dettmer. The convention went smoothly and we met a bunch of old friends and got to meet a few new ones as well. Unfortunately I can be somewhat of a social retard so sometimes I get too shy to walk up and say hi to people. Other times I just have a hard time recognising people from the internet. So if i didn't say hi it was most likely one of those reasons. Next time you see me... just come say hi to me... I promise I will be nice.

A huge thank you to everyone who got tattooed or bought merch or just came over to say hi! It meant a lot to us!!

Ok, gotta move on... still so many things to tell.

Ok. Next topic...

We will have a guest at our shop next week. From the 24th to the 28th of october our new friend Davee Blows will do a few cool tattoos so check him out HERE if you have facebook or see some of his stuff on the Conspiracy Inc. Blog. Looking forward to be working with this dude for a few days!

He will also be joining me and the Dino Baby for our annual Halloween tattoo bash. This unholyness will take place on Saturday the 27th of october most likely from around 14:00 till as late as we want. Same rule as last year, walk-in from Halloween flash and it is half priced if you're dressed up... Well sheet over the head doesn't count... make an effort for the discount people. Even if you don't wanna get tattooed then dress up and drop by for some snack and beers and stuff. Come hang out and have some fun. It will most likely be the last Conspiracy Inc. party in this shop! 

So bring your ghoul or what ever hellbeast you're friends with , and help os make this an awesome goodbye Halloween.

If you forgot how awesome it was last year then check it out HERE.

Ok. I have been writing on this post for three days now so I better finish up soon. 

But I have to remember to tell a bit about some different paintings I did. I did a design for a Limited Edition Halloween shirt for Mastodon. Do you think I was super stoked to get asked to do that?? How about hell fucking yeah!!! I will show the painting when I get the shirt. 

I also did a painting for my good homie Electric Pick. You see, he has been working on publishing his comic The Red Box and he wanted a bunch of artist to do a little thing for it. Go preorder it NOW!!! 

One more thing though!! 

JAPAN!!! 

We will be back in Japan from the 30th of october till the 16th of November. I will be doing a few tattoos at Inkrat Tattoo as always. So if you wanna get something done then send Hata a mail with size, placement and idea and if you are on a budget or not. 

You can write him at inkrat00@yahoo.co.jp.

If you have any questions about design or other things send me a mail on onkelallan@gmail.com. If you book in you can email me anyway so I know what I will be doing before I get there.

Thanks!

Ok!! I think that has to be it for now. Dinner is almost ready and if I don't press send before eating it will be another day before you see this!

See you all soon!

Witchcraft.

Tonight will be our night of celebrating witches and witchcraft at conspiracy inc. Drop by for a sweet, or evil, little witch tattoo from the witchy flash that I did or just come hang out and drink a beer and listen to some sweet witchy tunes. The originals of the flash will also be for sale tonight and so is my sweet sexy witch Tshirt.
So drop by tonight. We start at 4 and end when we don't feel like it anymore.


Here is a little preview of the some of the flash. Almost done.

Hope to see you tonight!
