wildcat Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I will be TDY at Joint Base San Antonio for a few weeks in early August and am looking for recommendations for shops and/or artists to look at in the area. I have gotten in the habit of getting one-shot pieces when I travel, but have not had good luck asking people in the cities I travel to (and since you can't see tattoos in uniform, I don't have a good way to vet these peoples judgment of good work...lol). I'm not set on a particular style as I already have a bit of everything, the shop just need to be amenable to walk-ins (or at least short notice appointments). I'll be doing my own Instagram "research" but I figured y'all would have some suggestions on where to start. Thanks!

SStu Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I don't know about San Antonio, but Austin isn't far from there and you'd have dozens of choices there.

wildcat Posted April 26, 2017 Author Share Posted April 26, 2017 Austin may be a little further than I will be able to go, but I will check it out...where there's a will, there's a way, right?

wildcat Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 I did go to Element and got a great piece from Justin a few days ago (posted in Latest Tattoo thread). I wholeheartedly agree and would not hesitate to go back next time I'm in the area!
