Thought this was nuts, by Ben-Leland Grillo

I'm into that, not something I would probably get, but it's look awesome.

Yeah I read an interview about some of those he's been doing lately, and he said they will look so bad when they age, but pretty nuts!

[purple haze]

hi. there so detailed n crisp. it is a shame age does take its tole on micro tatts. but its a toss up 4 something u want now and enjoy and not worrying abt them further down the line

or maybe hanging bk .

If it weren't so religious I'd be diggin' it.

Ahh how close minded.

[IanBurkhart]

Thats awesome but I would worry about how they're look over time, especially if you work with your hands for a living.

[hgiles]

Definitely impressive...now. I tend to go the opposite way. I want the biggest possible tattoo.

[Petri Aspvik]

Too gimmicky for my taste.

[Bunny Switchblade]

I guess we will all watch to see how my thumbs age over the years.....ha ha ha!

(not done by Grillo....but similar type work)

I work with my hands and I just have a feeling they will hold up better than most people think but then I take better care of my tattoos than the general population does too!

[Tight-Lines]

I dig the religious stuff... but betty bop, Che, and Pepe is a little bizarre.

Here's some masterful fine line black and grey work too:

Are they real, the Che looks photo shopped?

Amazing if genuine.

[griff]

what does that symbol on his middle finger mean?

Are you referring to the guy with the itty bitty portraits as being close minded or yourself?

beautiful!! i wonder how they will look down the road though? aren't they a bit small to keep all the detail work as the tattoo ages?

I've seen some of Freddy's work and it's held up fine over time. My tattoos from him are still relatively fresh but I'm pretty sure that guy knows what he's doing and is gonna lay down a tattoo that'll last ;)

[Jake]

Also, the tattoos on the Temple site do not do justice to what kind of stuff comes out of that shop

Jack Rudy, all single needle on my friend Dave.

[cltattooing]

goddamnit Jack Rudy, why are you so good at your job!!

[irezumi]

I get eye strain just looking at it as a photo and in real life. I can't imagine working like that every day, that guy is the king.

[SStu]

@irezumi Do you know how old that tattoo was at the time of photographing it?

I took those photos last week, and I think it's maybe 6 or 7 years old? more? Not quite 10. I think.
