If I didn't have a young daughter, I'd be down.

Cool to see a person in a public position getting visible tattoos.. Looking at the picture in the head of the link, my initial reaction is WTF is that shit..

Awesome! The shop in Fayetteville may be the ticket! He lives not far from there! Awesome, thanks guys!

I've passed the info along, thanks a lot! I asked him to keep me posted, so I'll update if he lets me know. Thanks again!

Welcome!

I have a friend in Arkansas who is looking for a shop recommendation. I looked on the shop list and in the sticky in this section and didn't see any. He has already been tattooed at jimmies romance.. He is looking at some Devil Driver stuff. Any shop or artists recommendations are welcome, not sure how far he's willing to travel but I will pass along any recommendations you guys might have..! Thanks in advance!

Seeing a lot of great pics coming out of Richmond via IG

All kick ass pieces! That rose is particularly sick man!

This is how it was presented, being I can't speak, read or write French? I can't actually 'read' any of the links. Thank you for clarifying the details though. Wasn't until the las few mins that someone posted the same info on the link as you did. :cool:

Saw this link shared in FB today, a petition to save tattooing in France.. https://secure.avaaz.org/fr/petition/Non_a_larret_des_couleurs_des_tatouages/?mobile=1 Haven't seen anything else about it, thought some ppl in the know or our friends from that region may be better informed.

This an interesting topic for discussion for sure. I read in another thread about a similar topic that an artist may be flattered by their art being rendered as a tattoo.. Thought provoking to me. Would using art originally unintended to be tattoo flash be different? It would be very interesting to hear the opinion and thoughts of an artist or tattooer that is firmly established and at least semi successful from selling drawings and or flash. I would hold their opinion in higher regard then my own.

That's but a drop in the bucket compared to what we spend on tattoos.. If there's something better to it then everyday day sunblock and moisturizer it's worth it to protect your investment..

I don't think it'd be unusual for someone to bring in piece of flash, nor do I think it'd be disrespectful. I've brought in other ppls flash and asked to have it tattooed, but I also have always ok'd artistic liberty with colors and design.. The artist I see has done 5 pieces on me now and I trust his vision and ability and he knows I won't flip out if he changes a design/flash I choose.. I'm not a tattooer, a tattooer may chime in and tell I'm wrong, and I may be but this has been my exp.

Well, I won't be making this.. Family stuff the following weekend in McLean so I got tattooed this past Friday. Oh well, maybe next year. Ray and Shaun from Blue Flame will be there, you guys should check'em out.. I hope to see some tattoos and pics from the convention..
