The funny thing is a lot of Tattoo artists think you should “collect” from a variety of different artists

I like Corey Miller’s work but I wouldn’t plan years ahead just to get tattooed by him. And I feel as though depending on what you’re going for in the end…[Read more]

Waxing doesn’t go deep.It removes the hair,root n all and some dead skin cells from the surface of your skin(epidermis).I believe tattoos are deeper than the first couple of layers(dermis),otherwise they would be shed along with the dead skin cells…[Read more]

I’ve never shaved just to make my tats look better. If I was going to try to win something at a convention then yeah but ingrown hairs suck.

I’ve only gotten tattoos from tattoo shops and I have never seen a washer, dryer, and refrigarator in any good shops work area. That should be the first thing to make you want to put the idea of getting tattooed by this guy out of your mind.

I have some white on my sleeve and even though it isn’t years old yet it hasn’t faded at all and still looks as white as when I got it. It was done with Intenze ink so maybe white done with a very cheap ink would fade more but I’d consider other options to get the look it sounds like you want.

There are big name artist who people know from TV and conventions but putting a top 5 together is so subjective to what everyone thinks is good. There is a guy in Galveston,TX named Chano who does awesome work and he just sits in his shop across the street and tattoos. Then there’s James Clements. I think his work is pretty damn…[Read more]

Are those rocks behind the cherry blossoms?

I’m not entirely sure how that addresses any of the points I made. In fact, it pretty much doesn’t and goes off on its own tangent, which would be cool if you hadn’t quoted me.

Nice lining. How pleasurable did you find the rib area?

Alright I made an album with more than a couple of pics. All the skulls on my side were done within a week. The 3 bottom ones outlined in one session. I’ve done 2 sessions on the stomach one. The artist doing that one is in a different city so it isn’t coming along super quick. I currently have an artist working on drawing up some stuff for a…[Read more]

Better question:

In the name of all that is good and holy, WHY?!

First off, it’s dick to copy someone else’s tattoo exactly. Use it for inspiration, that’s totally legit, but to just put it on a Xerox and hit copy is a serious douchenozzle move. It also shows a complete lack of…[Read more]
