Brilliant work MAX :)


Im with Vargas at Frith street around September, October. Getting a cover up done, blahhhh, but excited to see what she will come up with.

I also want a gramophone on my ribs/back cos of my deafness and how I feel lucky to hear music at the mo.

Fuck! Superb...I had one done by Yan at SA about 10yrs ago

I have a tiger on my ribs/hip but I'm not putting it up as my guts may not be safe for work

No Can See

My Knee:

That's gotta huuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

These two ladies at Frith really got some skills, I recommend both Claudia and Valerie, they got some beautiful work. LdnGrrl it's a lovely idea keep us posted how the whole thing develops. I'm going to make a return back to Frith in september for a chest piece! Oh yeas...

I will. I wont show the before tattoo as it's rather embarrassing but I will let you know if it develops :)

hahahahha!

Looking for a artist's input to help put finishing touches/advise/aesthetics for a cover up... PM me if interested and we'll talk turkey, will happily pay a fee for your time.

Go to a reputable studio and ask to see their portfolios of any cover ups they've made.

Vargas at frith tattoo is a winner for that, though she has a long waiting list.

Ive been to a few and haven't been thrilled with the idea's they've put forward..admittedly, not checked out the one you mention...I wanted something more personable,...so many different styles with each artist, as yet, nothings jelled ...also, thought it might give someone here the chance to make a £ or 2.

Understandable, looking for an perfect artist is like shopping for that perfect pair of shoes.

http://www.valerievargas.com/ I have no clue what style you're going for, but I enjoy a lot of her work.
I have a horrible tattoo done and no longer speak to previous tattoo artist because of her bedside manner, it took me forever to find a good one, until this artist PM'd me on a body modification site that Im a member of, and the way she spoke to me made me feel comfortable. Plus a lot of my mates have had stuff done by her. I'd strongly recommend you to check her work out, perhaps try and pop in person too

Good luck.

tattoos are for society drop-outs, freaks and ne'er do wells. no one with a tattoo will ever succeed in this society. sorry.

Are you getting 'Duncan' covered up?

is that why you left the country then?

can you PM me contact details Nhatt?

Shit Max, i thought that was a killer squirel on your leg, Foxes are cool bu squirels are a whole new level

bedside manner? they're basically scraping you with a needle for hours on end, who gives a fuck?

Er, you need to FEEL comfortable when getting tattooed, and I hated her digs, and she didn't like the fact I didnt want to go for a huge fuck off sleeve or piece just yet. Her linework isn't brillant, and has done some horrible shading on some tattoos on others.

saying she does a rubbish job is completely different to saying she didn't give you a cuddle when you were done

Ross, whilst she was tattooing me, she would make digs at/about me and that did NOT make me feel comfortable. That alone was a major factor on not going to the person in Essex anymore.
Then saw some god awful work on others, and that was it in total.

I now have found a better artist now and us being in the same body modification website has made me even more comfortable.

Why are you acting like I've offended your sister?

.

I gotta finish my 3/4 sleeve sooooon. Geting annoyed with it being half finished. Grrr.
Need to use brain to come up with final under layer. Taps cranium.

.

you should go and speak to Mie at the Family Business In Farringdon, she would do a great job on that.

just go along to the shop and have a chat with them, they a re a very friendly and non pretentious bunch. it's on Exmouth Market.

I'm very happy with the piece she did on my wrist.

. would be the correct answer.

what? my point was that i look at A LOT of their work, i find out if their waiting list is three or four million years and i make my decision based on that.

BUT AS LONG AS YR HAPPY THEN I'M HAPPY

oh capitals are back

Hope you didnt think I was originally on about Vargas. I was talking about a studio in Upminister who don't really have a waiting list.
I've learnt my lesson since then. I was 18 when I first started getting tattooed and stopped at 19 :P

I'm now almost 23. We are all young once. Ahhh.

I tried to post a photo and failed, and didn't have anything interesting to say.

I wanted to show some of Charissa's work...but forgot that Roxy's flckr is protected.

Lots of people repping Family Business.

What did you get there Mr Hoops??

Is that you Nhatt? I'm liking the sleeve

Nice pic!

Cheers! It's a work in progress....very very slow progress. It seems like another bike or another course or something is coming between me and my finishing it up.

That's always the way, when doing a tattoo project!

Same! I have to finish my legs but hate getting tattooed when its summer! Dont know why! Roll on the cold weather!

It's already here JD, but I'm the same. Winter tat's r good.

I like your T-shirt

i am not sure if that is the most brilliant back handed compliment or not Rik.

Nearly! I mean to the point where you really cant ride much so what the hell get some ink and enjoy it!

Cheers Rik, it was a wedding pressie.

something i drew up a few years ago. just gotta get round to getting it done.

yes, i was going to say that it's an awesome t-shirt. i become a citizen tomorrow, btw!

Bloody foreigners!
