Help? Anyone?

Since we'll soon be getting a lot more room (*insert excited squeal here*) we can finally get into doing some of the things that we've talked about doing for years, but never had the room for.
Like printing our own t-shirts and stuff like that!
But i know nothing about these things, so i thought i'd ask your advice, oh wise blog readers.

There's a ton of different screen printing stuff on ebay, everything from the very hobby-like to the very pro looking stuff and i'm... well, i'm confused.

All advice is welcome, comment away!

Sanna

Finally we have a decent picture of Sanna's backpiece!
Allan remembered to bring the good camera today, so hopefully this marks the end of the "shots-from-Amalie's-iphone" era.
Hopefully.
Today they did a lot of green and a whole lotta pink.

Looking good, huh?

Even the rinse cup was a somewhat murky, but happy pink

We leave for Japan on friday, so if the next couple of weeks are a bit quiet, that's the reason.
I'll try to post some tattoo pictures while we're there, but i never know what the internet situation is like in our apartment.
We will also try to post regularly on our personal blogs, so keep checking in.

Weekend

We went to the shop yesterday, on our day off.
We were actually just going to pick up some important mail, but since both Eckel and Nick were working, we ended up staying for hours, chatting and drinking coffee.

Eckels clients were a bit tired

And as if going to our own shop on a Saturday wasn't enough, we decided to ride down the street and check in on the Ripleys too.
They've been in Australia, so it'd been a while since we'd seen them, and even longer since we'd seen their shop.

Marija and Judd have just about the nicest shop you could ever imagine, here's a tiny little part of it:

Allan and Lucifer watching Judd work

Oscars area, Lucifer is so getting one of these in the new shop!

Back at Conspiracy, Eckel had moved on to the second client of the day

This is what Nick did yesterday, if you wanna see Eckels work... well, go bug him about that on his blog!

A different kind of hootin'

Here's what Allan did today.
He also made lots of lattes, ate cake, and listened to WotW, but that we don't have pictures of.
Some parts are fresh, some are healed, but i think the pictures turned out pretty good.

Ain't that the truth, owl buddy!

Thanks for the cake Richard!

Wallpaper!

Remember this post?
Back in May we were supposed to redecorate the shop, but that obviously didn't happen, in part due to the fact that we wanted something bigger.
But now, with all these new rooms, wallpaper is so back on!
At least in the front room.

How about some sweet "I Love Lamp" wallpaper?

Oh yeah, it is on!

Breaking news!!

Attention dear blog readers and clients, you heard it here first:
Conspiracy Inc. is moving!

That's right, we've been discretely looking around for a bigger space for a few years, but never really found anything until now.
And we weren't even looking that hard, but that's the way it always happens, right?

Now don't panic, we're staying in Copenhagen and the new location is a mere 10 minute walk from our current position.
I'm not gonna reveal the exact location just yet, cause we're not moving right away, but i'll say it's in a nice, quiet area that we think you're gonna love just as much as we already do.
The shop is gonna need a little work before we can move in, it's kind of a fixer upper, and we also have a Japan trip coming up.
But we're hoping we'll be able to open sometime in the beginning of next year.
Ok, enough talk, here's a sneak peak!

The future workroom

Asking our new landlord a bunch of dumb practical questions...

Everyone who has been crossing their fingers for us can uncross them, i know they must hurt by now.
And everyone who lives nearby and can work a paintbrush, expect a call in December!

Friday news broadcast

It took me a while to track this down, but here's some tootin', or hootin' as it's apparently called, for your viewing pleasure.
The hoot is quite powerful, so use it with great care!



Now, to the news.
As you may already know if you're a Plog follower, Nick is leaving us for a while.
This makes us very sad, of course, but he will come back, so it's not a huge deal.
At least that's what we keep telling ourselves.
I try to focus on the good stuff, such as the souvenirs he'll bring back for me from Hong Kong.
If you have a piece in progress by him, and you'd like to get it finished before he leaves, just send him an email (pick@electricpick.com) and he'll hook you up with a date.

In other Conspiracy news, Eckel has a blog now!
Told you the hoot was powerful.
Go follow him, he has some good stuff up already.

A rose

I think it's about time i start posting some tattoos photos on this here blog, right?
I'm very sorry it's been so long, but Allan posts his finished pieces on his own blog, and he won't let me post that many in-progress photos.
He's very selfish you know.
And Nick is the same.
Selfish, both of them.
So it's a good thing we have Eckel then, he hasn't even started blogging yet!
Here's a crappy iphone pic of the tattoo he did on Morten today:


Maybe, hopefully, we'll have some more tattoo pictures next week.
Maybe even taken with an actual camera.
I know, i spoil you.

B-day

(Photo from Cute Overload)

Happy birthday!!

We love you almost as much as we love miniature horses that are also dwarfs (i've been spending way too much time on that site, haven't i?)

See you later!

Cake, at a whole new level

We love carrot cake, all carrot cake, but as you can see, this one was pretty special.
This didn't just taste amazing, it aimed to please the eyes too.

The carrot king and the two bunnies

Sweet customers, you spoil us!

Canon crisis

Ok, i seriously need to get at least one of my cameras fixed, this is not working for me.
I took these of Sannas back yesterday with my iPhone because my camera (powershot) and my backup camera (G9) broke, and Allan didn't bring his.
These are clearly not very good (and the toycam ones were even worse) but i needed those progress shots.
So there.
Sorry.

I'll get better ones in November when it's time for (da da daaarrhh) colors!

Finished lines and black, at least for a while

Detail

No one would have believed...

It almost seems silly to post any pictures from last nights WotW marathon, given the fact that both me and Allan blogged about it already.
And there's a bunch of pictures on our myspace too.
But i have to, i don't want the shop blog to feel left out!

All this and Dr. Horrible too

No, they did not collapse, what up!

Run, puny humans!

Here's what it's all about:

Fall In

Nicks art show (not a solo show, but we'll call it Nicks show anyway) was tonight.
It went well, the gallery was nice and there were lots of people there.
With all of us being just slightly socially awkward we didn't stay long, but it was nice and i highly recommend you go check it out.

Sweet idea, right?

Man of the hour

Allan and Ninja Thomas (and Lucifer) discussing something aahhtsy
Wookie got a new camera (mine broke, again, that's why these are all from the iPhone... sorry!)

The ladies!

It's Kulturnat in Cph, so there was a whole bunch of weird shit going down tonight

Art show in Cph.

You may or may not have read this on the Plog already, but Nick has a few pieces in a show here in Copenhagen at the Corfitzen Gallery.

So if you're in Copenhagen between the 9th and 31st of October, why not drop by the gallery and check out these lovely ladies in person?

Yellow Cake baker sisters!

The opening is on friday, we'll be there!

In other news, we're closed on friday, saturday, sunday and monday, but we're back at the shop on tuesday the 13th.
If you need to reach us, just send us a mail!

A few random London shots

Our booth, merch overload

DooM!

Chriss and Hunter

Friday, on our way to the convention

Allan working

Chriss' fancy new rubber-bands (wonder if all the fanboys will be sporting this sweet combo in the future?)

Signing the super duper...

... awesome limited prints!

Thanks to our clients and all the people who came by the booth to say hi or pick up a t-shirt or a print.
And to our sweet convention family who made it such an awesome weekend.

Nuff said?

More Eckel photos

Hi again, we're back from London!
We got home super late last night, so we're just about falling asleep at work today.
Phew.

Ok, so i thought i should post some more Eckel pictures here, since he'll be joining us real soon, and i often refer people to this blog for pictures and info about him.
So here, some random Eckel goodness for you on this cold, Copenhagen monday.

Oh, and remember that he'll be at the shop this friday, the 2nd of October* , to talk to anyone interested in getting tattooed, so drop by after 1pm and have a talk with him!











* It's October this week? Fuck!

New artist at the shop

We've been keeping secrets from you, dearest blog readers and we feel terrible about that.
Really.
But we do have some good news for you!
Remember this guy?
That's Eckel by the way, if you're too lazy to check the link.
Anyway, he's moving to Denmark and will be working at our shop!
Told you it was good.

So if you're interested in booking with him, send us an email or drop by the shop.
We'll update the myspace soon with some more of his pictures and he'll be bringing a new portfolio to the shop too.

He'll be at the shop to talk to anyone interested in getting tattooed on October 2nd, so come on down!

Muffin friday

Anne baked muffins today.
They were delish!
Bet you wish you'd dropped by, huh?


Have a great weekend everyone!

Dark haired beauty

Today Sanna's pretty backpiece lady finally got some color (read=black) in her hair.
And Sanna herself is moving closer and closer to the coveted (by some) and feared (by others) trooper title.
More progress next month, so stay tuned!

Sanna, me and the pretty lady with the fan
