  1. Welcome. You're going to like it here. Let's see some photos of what you've got so far . . .
  2. Great suggestions here. Add Matt Black to the list, too, please.
  3. @Scott R he's starting to get into Mardi Gras season. He should expect some congestion!!
  4. @Scott R if he's looking for a walk-in then that or Downtown Tattoo (about 2 blocks from EL) are ok, at least for 1 or 2 artists. Also check to see if there is any availability that particular day for Dave or Hood at Uptown Tattoo (that'd be my 1st choice for a walk-in).
  5. I'm 58 and still getting tattoos. Unless you've lost a huge amount of weight and have really loose skin, getting tattooed shouldn't be a problem.
  6. wait longer, save up the adequate funding. You'll be MUCH happier 10-20-30 years from now.
  7. didn't you say Long Island? Kings Avenue.
  8. welcome, and what style are you looking for?
  9. She is definitely new skool, mostly to the point of cartoony - and that's fine, but if you're wanting a realistic rendition of some space-work then I'm not sure she's your artist . . .
  10. realism and portrait work = Nate Beavers in Houston traditional = Steve, Tony & Chad at Rock of Ages in Austin blackwork = Thomas Hooper at Rock of Ages in Austin new school and/or biomech = Jeff Ensminger and Nick Baxter in Austin
  11. Long, deep breaths when it starts to hurt. It is a meditation.

    Hi, From Texas

    Welcome from Atascocita! Who's doing your work?
  15. Your answers are going to largely going to depend on the size of the piece, and the ability (or not) of the artist in question. If that particular style is paramount, then personally I'd be inclined to find an artist who does great (normally blackwork) woodcut tattoos and see if they are interested in including color.
  16. Heh, heh. Well, if you're going to wear heels, @SeeSee - then @Cork has to, too. Just being fair, here . . .

    lace tattoo

    A good tattooist can make such a tattoo last, but a great tattooist won't get the lines too close together (providing long-term clarity). Your example above it pretty tight-knit - a little more than I'd want to receive . . . I'm not familiar with anyone in the mid-west who "specializes" in fine lacework, but there probably is a dozen or so who could pull it off.
  18. Old fart warning: King Crimson's 2014 Tour Box set. Really looking forward to the release of their live ep release in the next week, too.
  19. yep. largely depends on what state they are in, how big they are, etc.
