    South Africa's no joke those portraits perfectly illustrate that . I remember a comment about how some Philly tattoo Convention people looking "hardened" by life well compared to these guys they look like the Vienna Boys Choir .

    Chriss Dettmer's got the "power" . In his blurb for getting tattooed by him he adds " If you have grim and dark ideas that seem to require listening to metal , tough and bold , that also lives right up my alley " http://theblackholetattoo.blogspot.co.uk/ Imagine if only the Millennium trilogy folks went totally buck wild and had Lisbeth Salander wear this tattoo !

    I think there's a subtle difference between a Swallow and a Sparrow tattoo particulary for someone in the U.K. . I think of a Swallow tattoo as more angular and slimmer and over here it can have associations with someone doing time or a "hard-man" . Swallow tattoo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Watched The Cook , the Thief, His Wife and her Lover last night - pretty risqué stuff for Helen Mirren, it's not every day you see a Dame's bits . It's very theatrical with beautiful cinematography and awesome costumes by Jean Paul Gaultier check it out if you get the chance its a trip .

    I really dig those George Burchett style serpents I've seen Bailey Hunter and Chris Cleen doing recently , funny I see them a lot on old boys over here but they are so badly blurred I could never tell if the tattoo was a dragon or snake , I see now they are both with wings like a bird - cool .

    kylegrey replied to Kev's topic in Random Crap

    Just read JG Ballard's "Cocaine Nights " and really impressed by his stuff I've promptly ordered "High Rise ". Cocaine Nights is set on the Costa del sol and examines what happens when people get too much sun and become lazy with leisure . He presents a self-policed , post-civilised society in which citizens steal , vandalise , commit rape and arson , prostitute themselves and deal drugs as a series of leisure options .

    @gougetheeyes I've seen the type you described on sheets of Jerry flash

    A guaranteed way to tell if your artist is excited about your tattoo is to ask them to tattoo some one else's flash . I got a Mike Malone piece from Ian Flower and he said " I'll even tattoo it with my Malone machine for no extra charge " ha ha.

    As you've already shown restraint why don't you take some time to look at more tattoos on this site to get a better idea of how awesome tattoos can be and the great artists that are out there . Like you said you want the first tattoo to be awesome and if so you will proceed from there , to ensure you live up to your getting tattooed potential and don't feel disappointed I personally wouldn't get tattooed at any of the shops you suggested . You are in a perfect position as you have the " time and finances " so you could consider a trip to neighbouring Russia or even one of the conventions/shops in Europe . I'll leave you a link to one of the prominent Russian artists to check out ÐвторÑкий Ñайт маÑтера татуировки Дена Яковлева
