shinobi Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hi, Shinobi from SoCal here. I've been looking for a tattoo forum to join for a while now and this one looks legit. Hoping to get some good advice and creative input on some tattoo ideas I have. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/3041-newb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

shinobi Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 I'm near Laguna in OC. I've checked out Eighth Element in Fountain Valley, there's Sid's in Santa Ana (which I haven't been to), Life After Death in Costa Mesa, and Fine Tattoo Work in Orange. I'm real fond of Sid's work from what I can tell online as well as Chip Douglas' at FTW. Definitely a lot of artists and styles to chose from here. - - - Updated - - - btw I'm open to suggestions if you have em. I'm like the traditional/neo-traditional and japanese styles as well as some of the Christian based work I've seen from the likes of Sid and Chris Perrin.

kylegrey Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hi Shinobi for Japanese hit up Chris Brand at Good Time Charlies , or Small Paul at True Tattoo Home - Small Paul Tattoo Theres many great artists doing traditional stuff but you could try Thomas Morgan at HB Tattoo - http://www.hbtattoo.com/ Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/3041-newb/#findComment-51750 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid's rules, always wanted to get something from him -- and now Tomas Garcia is working there, who also rules.

CultExciter Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Tomas is probably one of the most interesting people in the world. jayessebee 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/3041-newb/#findComment-51757 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinobi Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Damn, you're not kidding about Tomas. I've gotta meet this guy. I'm stopping by Sid's tomorrow. I want to get a cobra w/ some traditional roses done on my front bicep, kinda like this: gougetheeyes and jayessebee 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/3041-newb/#findComment-51782 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochlan Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 @shinobi go in with the rough idea you want then let the tattooer (who ever you choose) at Sid's work their magic of drawing you a badass tattoo with their expertise then come share it with us! (please) CultExciter, shinobi and jayessebee 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/3041-newb/#findComment-51788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gougetheeyes Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Tomas is probably one of the most interesting people in the world. Never met the dude, just follow his work and know about his alien inclinations.. therefore I would like to receive a tattoo from him one day.
