A dad who covered 96% of his body in tattoos revealed a “flashback” snap to mid-2019.
Remy, from Canada, is still inking his skin, despite spending a fortune and over 1,200 hours on his progress so far.
He often uses his Instagram, where he boasts 203,000 followers, to share updates of his transformation.

Lately, he’s been posting many throwbacks of his work with a one-year transformation of his chest.
And now he’s taken fans back to 2019 where he began blackwork on his fingers.
Blackwork is a form of embroidery generally worked in black thread, although other colours are also used on occasion.

Remy wrote in a post on Instagram: “Swipe set from the first time I blacked out my fingers. Flashback to mid-2019.
“It’s safe to say these sessions pushed me to my limits at the time, and I learned a lot about myself going through the ‘blackout’ portion of my tattoo journey.”
In the two photos, Remy posed with his newly inked hand, while another showed him right after the procedure.
His journey’s inspired thousands of fans over the years with the post racking up over 3,800 likes.
One follower commented: “I’m having flashbacks now,” another added: “Sick colouring, a touch up TUFF.”
A third praised: “Damn man, I know them finger tips were probably spicy as hell blacking out.”
And a fourth chimed in: “Ouch!! Pain is love the price for beauty.”
It comes as the tattooed dad posted a snap where he looks different 19 years ago.

In the upload, the photo on the left shows Remy rocking a grungy look with a mohawk and skull top.
He’s also wearing baggy jeans with a long black coat in the snap taken back in 2003.
Then on the right, Remy has short blonde hair which his skull tattooed along with the rest of his body.
He’s also completed a huge chunk of blackwork since the early noughties where he has no tattoos on show.
