If you're ever in the Southeast region, specifically Mobile, AL. You should check out Royal Street Tattoo. Those guys do amazing work down there.

My chest panel for my Japanese is maybe 2-3 inches above my nipple and when he tattooed that area I still felt it in my nipple.

Not pleasant.

I wanna get my upper arms and legs tatted but I dont have any idea what I wanna get.
Been looking at NBA players for inspiration but 99% of their tats are religious themed/family member portraits. And Im not interested in getting either tatted.
This thread has amazing examples but none strike me as "damn thats what I want"
I think I want one of my tats to somehow incorporate some famous images of the cities of DC and NY into one if thats possible.
All I know is I wanna get Witchblade as one of my tats. (comic book character) something like this:

NBA players have some of the WORST tattoos out there, IMO. I would look up artists in your area and go check out their portfolios.

That is sick 

What price range was this, if you dont mind me asking?

Most athletes have terrible tattoos.

MMA fighters have some nice ink, thats about it.

Anyone else watch Inkmasters 2? Kinda excited to watch tonights new episode, themed around Japanese tattoos.

Tatu Baby is actually pretty bad.

^The tattoo on her neck/throat that looks incomplete drives me crazy on the show though

 

[picasso swerve]

I cringe everytime I see it.

Honestly the show is freakin stupid. I hate that the way they edit and put it together. Whenever they bash on an artist and it pans to another artist making some sort of face, like cmon. They need to re-work the editing.

Oliver peck makes me want to break my TV every time I see him. Why isn't Nikko or Mike DeVries a judge?

None of these judges are even considered great artists in the tattoo community..pretty sad. Last year's winner was better then every judge

Can anyone recommend any Toronto artists? I'll be there for about two weeks at the end of December and am thinking about getting my first tattoo in honor of my mother.

I want an Indian style elephant on my inner forearm in color. I've been googling around but wanted to see if you guys had any recommendations.

 

[killthehype]

Who in San Jose, CA does great work? If not someone in the city? I'm willing to drive up to get good ink.

Not too expensive though, I'm not trying to go broke here guys

In san jose, Toby Torres. His Instagram is "Toby2Thumbs" he's out of humble beginnings. Or you can hit up state of grace, anyone one of their artist is awesome.

Also remember, you get what you pay for.

Tatu baby

I just watch the show for the laughs though

Not gonna lie, I did like the Star Wars tattoo ol girl did with the imperial cog

 

[curbsideprophet]

I'd take an old fashioned from Tatu Baby
