Updating you on NYC’s most tattooed architect’s facial tattoo work, here’s the latest photo of Nick‘s striking facial work by Tattoo Joe at Physical Grafitti in Bridgeport, CT. I love where this project is going, and it’s a real gift to be able to watch people undergoing this sort of transition.
Edit/update: Read comment #22 for some background on Nick.

My hats off to you Nick. You seem dedicated to whatever you set your mind to. I’ve been a cop for 32 yrs and have enjoyed every minute of it. It is a very rewarding and sometimes terrifying career. Good luck in your pursuit of ink and in your passion of architecture.

I have seen an other heavy tattooed guy on the TV, he is some kind of counselor or social worker for “socially challenged” (oh! the politically corrrrrectness!) kids. I think he’s Australian but works world wide.
I apologize for any mistyping, misspelling.

I don’t remember his name. The only thing I remember is that he is a big guy and that I thought “This is cool, we need more men of his kind because when he talks, the kids are silent, they listen to him and then they believe him and then they love him.
Oh wait, I think he calls himself “The Scary Man” or “Scary Guy” or something like that.

Wow… those forehead arches are beautiful. All of the work seems to converge in the middle. Some of the best facial tattoos I’ve seen. I like the fact that he’s into architecture and gets architectural influenced tattoos.
