Time to confess: it seems I am not the author of MBT after all...
Well, it appears that I am not the writer of the Monster-Blood Tattoo / The Foundling's Tale series after all.
Apparently - if you can credit it - it was THIS person!
It seems I have been tricking you all along - either that or I look remarkably like Michaela Conlin of the TV show Bones.
Maybe this is why I do not post upon this blog as often as would be good to do!
*Just for the record: I AM the author of Monster-Blood Tattoo / The Foundling's Tale series, what this other person is on about eludes me entirely - some form of online role-play perhaps? Anyone else got any idea?
Also, thankyou to all of you gave an opinion about the two word choices for rams: I will be using both: Achmë for an over-gunned frigate, Lyonne (I agree that this is a better spelling) for an older standard gunned frigate... though Scion also is a rather good name... Hmmm...
I do not mind at all of the Looney Tunes association of Achmë one bit - that is part of the fun of the whole process: taking s well used/context specific word and giving it a new handle to hook on to. Think on it: I gave a major character the name of an entire continent and managed to get away with that :D

Originals!
Ok, as i mentioned in my last post, we decided to sell the original witch paintings from Saturdays flash day, since they're such a good little size, and we figured it'd be a nice opportunity for people to grab an Uncle Allan original (god knows there aren't too many of them around!)
So here are the ones we have left.
Size is approximately 10.5 cm x 14.7 cm.
If you're interested, send an email to conspiracyinctattoo@gmail.com and we'll take it from there!
Update: all of the paintings have been sold!
Thanks for the interest, we hope they'll look all pretty in their new homes!

Wicked witches
Boy, are we tired today, but yesterday was so much fun!
Sadly, i didn't take many (ahem, any) pictures during the day, but i do have tattoo pictures, at least.
But the shop looked pretty good too! Not Halloween good, but we had some serious candle action going on... and snacks. Lot's of snacks!
Allan kept busy all day on only breakfast and one short break between tattoos, cause he's a friggin machine, so he managed to do eight fantastic witch tattoos. It would have been seven if one of our regulars hadn't showed up sometime around 1 am when we were actually on our way home, but on walk-in day, there's always time for one more!
We got to meet some awesome folks and we even got some cool presents that i'll try to remember to photograph when we're back at the shop... pretty awesome stuff!
We wanna thank everyone who came out, to hang or get tattooed, we really appreciate it and hope you'll want to join us for the next walk-in day too!
Here are, in no particular order, yesterdays tattoos... sorry if some are bloody or blurry, but there wasn't really time to let anyone bleed off!
Oh, and by the way, the original flash paintings Allan did for the event are for sale, and i'll post pictures here on the blog next week.
They're a cute little size at a reasonable price, and a pretty great opportunity to own an original Uncle A if you ask me.
But more on that later... tattoos!
Oh, and we missed you Chriss, you better make it up here soon!

Update for saturday, and not the best kind...
Guys, bad news, Chriss Dettmer has had to cancel and is not coming on Saturday after all.
We're super bummed, but he had no choice, and he's working on finding some dates where he can visit and make it up to you.
We are not cancelling Anti-Sankt Hans, but since it's only gonna be Uncle Allan tattooing, there will, for obvious reasons, not be time for as many tattoos as we'd hoped.
So, there's no guarantee that you can get tattooed if you show up, and we might have to prioritize anyone coming from farther away than the Copenhagen area, but we'll try our best to make time for as many tattoos as possible.
It's gonna be an open event, anyone is welcome to drop by and check out the shop and grab a beer or something, and hopefully the weather will be great so we can throw something on the barbeque later.
See you Saturday!
Ps. If there's time we'll post a flash preview on twitter (@conspiracyinctattoo) and instagram (@unclea), if not, it'll be a surprise!
dk: Triste nyheder, Chriss Dettmer er blevet nødt til at aflyse på lørdag.
Han arbejder på at finde et tidspunkt hvor han kan komme herop og arbejde, så det sker forhåbentligt snart.
Vi aflyser ikke, men dersom det kun er Uncle Allan der skal tatovere på lørdag, bliver der af åbenlyse grunde nok ikke tid til så mange tatoveringer som vi havde håbet på.
Vi vil selvfølgelig gøre vores bedste for at der bliver tid til alle, men der er altså ingen garanti for at man kan blive tatoveret hvis man dukker op, og vi bliver også nødt til at give lidt særbehandling hvis der er nogen der kommer langvejs fra.
Det er et åbent arrangement, så du er velkommen til bare at kigge forbi og hænge lidt ud.
Vi håber på godt vejr så vi måske endda kan grille lidt.
Håber vi ses!
Ps. Vi lægger måske et flash preview på vores twitter (@conspiracyinctattoo) og instagram (@unclea) men hvis ikke vi når det, må det blive en overraskelse!

New t-shirts are here!
Oh, it is a big day at the shop today!
This morning, on our way to work, we took a little detour to pick up our brand new t-shirts.
I can't tell you how long it's been since we've had any... cause i seriously can't even remember!
But it's one of those things people ask for pretty regularly, so it will be an absolute pleasure to finally be able to say "why yes, of course we have t-shirts for sale!"
The t-shirts are Tultex fine jersey, a soft pre-shrunk cotton on a charcoal-like black.
They're not like American Apparel thin, but they have a nice worn feel to them.
We have no girlie fit, but as you can see in the pictures below, a small fits a small girl just fine.
As for men's fit, Allan is usually somewhere between a medium and a large, and medium fit him best, so if you're in between sizes, you might wanna order down one size.
Sizes are small, medium, large and a few xl.
They will be for sale at the shop, of course, but also right here on the blog, just visit the merch section and one can be yours! I will ship out once a week, probably Fridays or Saturdays.
Hope you like them as much as we do!!

While you're here, don't forget to scroll down and read about our next walk-in day.
It's coming up soon and we hope to see a lot of you here!
June 23rd, an invitation
Ok, i just noticed that our secret (up until now) event is less than two weeks away, so now might be a good time to let y'all know what's going on!
In short, our not-so-secret event will be a walk-in day with cool flash from Uncle Allan and Chriss Dettmer, kind of like Halloween but without the costumes (unless you really wanna dress up, we won't stop you and we certainly don't judge!)
The theme (cause you gotta have a theme) is.... witches!
See, the 23rd of June in Denmark is Sankt Hans evening, and here in Denmark, without getting into a recent history lesson, that means lighting up a giant bonfire, that occasionally will have a model of a witch on it, and singing a bunch of midsummer songs.
And that's all very nice (and who doesn't like a bonfire?) but we've decided to celebrate witches in all their awesomeness instead of lighting them on fire!
So if you think you might like a witch, or occult, or witch related, or pagan tattoo (cause, who knows what they're gonna come up with?) by either Allan or Chriss or maybe both, please drop by the shop on the 23rd of June at 4 pm, or later, and join us for some midsummer fun!
The tattoos will be individually priced, and will not be custom or one-time-only.
If the weather is good (which of course it will be, right?) we'll have the door open until late at night, and refreshments of some kind will be served as long as we have them!
Usually there'll be a bonfire on the lake, so you'll have a chance to go down and see that too.
You know where to find us:
