slayer9019 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I seem to have not run across this thread yet so I decided to start it. I know that there is a large group on this forum who get tattooed by a list of tattooers from all over, and there are some who stick to one or two people. Who do you get tattooed by and if you get tattooed by just one or two people why? I know myself I love the idea of having a bunch of great artists give me a tattoo with their own particular touch, but I also have an artist that I go for a bunch of other tattoos since he seems to nail it every time I see a new tattoo by him.

Bunny Switchblade Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 There is actually a blog entry that was started by Mario Desa that a lot of people have added their lists to! Here is the link...... Who Has Tattooed You It's pretty interesting....at least to me! irezumi, Ursula and Lochlan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Switchblade Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 And to answer your question.....I prefer to get tattooed by many different people! I have been trying to get the best work possible over the years and allowing artists to do pretty much what they would like to do! I am definitely like a patchwork quilt of tattoos...and styles as well.....and I love the way my collection has progressed over the years!

eisen777 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 short list? A short list of great stuff. Regino Gonzalez is someone I really want work from before my body gets to full. I have lots of work from Hooper, and a fair amount from Ollie. Ones offs from ron wells, chad K and jondix. and then some friends tattoos most are crappy. This year the only planned new tattoos are to start my sleeve with Chris O Donnell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Shit Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I'm also a tattoo pig.I don't stick with one artist..There's to many good tattooers out there to just stay with one artist. I have work from some local guy's like Mike & Tom@ Electric Tattoo in Bradley Beach.Rich Cahill in Jersey.Grez at King Avenue.Mike Perfetto,Mike Davis,Jack Rudy,Brian Everett,Cap Szumski,Alessio Ricci,Jerry Ware.I also like to get tattooed when I'm traveling.

Stewart Robson Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 @hogg, He's not coming to London, I'm going 'over there'. There has been no online announcements or conversations because they often cause trouble, or at least a good luggage search/interrogation.

peterpoose Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I think I would like to get more artists than just one or two. More the merrier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan S Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I'm a lightweight, only been worked on by a coupla people. Me. I did a shitload of hand-tattooing on myself at a MUCH younger age, now all but one piece safely covered. Some of it was pretty decent, but nothing says jailhouse like jailhouse tattoos! Dale Grande. Dale did quite a bit of work on me. Mark Miller. Apprentice of Dale Grandes, did one piece on my arm. Miles Maniaci, also worked for Dale Grande, did a full sleeve on one arm. Nick Colella, multiple pieces and more on the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrixieFaux Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I've been tattooed by a guy called Big Al back in the early 90s in New Hampshire, then in more recent years in LA I've been tattooed by Mark Mahoney, Graham Chaffee (x3), and Kim Saigh. I was so impressed by my Kim Saigh tattoo I thought I'd stick with her forever but changed my mind because the work of James Spencer-Briggs, also at Memoir, caught my eye. I'll be seeing him very soon for a big one. Interested in Maxime, too now, among others... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
