Hi mate. Welcome. One of my favourites http://www.horitaka.com

Ok bud. There was a series that an english actor called Ross Kemp did on Gangs & Prisons worlwide.
He got right in there close up with all these different mobsters in prisons etc. Had all the meanings for tattoos regarding ranks and so forth. You may want to look at that site where you can view all the old TV series etc. Somebody here may know…[Read more]

I like your idea mate. Will look great!

Hi Vicky. There are numbing creams that can be applied for anybody who cannot handle pain that well.
Everybody is different regarding pain tolerance. Women can handle waaaayyy more pain than most men.
70% of my clientele are female, the more ink time you get, the easier you learn to control the situation.
And you just never know? You will probably…[Read more]

Hi Mate. That is a bloody nice piece. Almost looks Paul Booth styles….May i suggest stick to the theme and carry it over top of the shoulder, possible chest plate? back of shoulder?

Hey man. Welcome to the crew.

Sorry mate was meant to add in there. Try unimax.com for machines, and disposa products, tubes, tips, needles, etc. I have been using starbrite inks for years. Fantastic results. Been using the latest Kuro-sumi colours also. I hear Dermaglo is quite common too. Cheers bud.

I would…[Read more]
