Man who splashed £115k on tattoos wows fans with two-year transformation

A father has showcased his £115,000 tattoo collection on Instagram, delighting his 80,000 followers with a two-year transformation.

Remy, a Canadian body modification enthusiast, regularly updates his page with his unique inkings. He's inked some areas more than 30 times and shows no signs of stopping anytime soon.

Now in a recent upload, the ex-chef showed what he looked like two years compared to him today. He said: "The canvas is only as full as you think it is. Imagination changes everything. Late 2022-early 2024 body suit comparison. I've made many more changes since the more current photo, stay tuned."

The post features two photos of Remy, one from 2022 and a more recent image. He estimates he's spent over £115,000 ($200,000 Canadian dollars) on his tattoos, although he stopped keeping track some time ago.

Remy has been focusing on his torso for some time. His post received numerous likes and comments, with one fan saying: "Them colours man, beefing up too by the look of things too."

Another commented: "Beyond inspirational my guy!" A third follower praised: "I know that some art works are never finished." While another simply added: "You're a legend bro."

The dad recently revealed the hefty sum he's spent on his tattoos during a Q&A with fans. Remy shared: "So I've been telling people around $200,000 Canadian dollars (£115,000) for about a year now, I can only imagine it's a little bit more than that.

"But it's not really like I'm keeping close track either, I'm having fun as I go. It's not like it's a painful or terrible feel I can't wait for it to end.

"I'm enjoying myself so for me it's a little bit like going out for dinner or going to a movie with friends. When you're having fun, you're not really thinking about it that way."
