Each to their own, but some of the pics on there terrify me!

That's what I get for being a big woose though

Get in touch with PH'er Tuan - http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/profile.asp?mem...

He has done a lot of research I believe, and has VERY good work done.

Nolar dog, do you do implants as well?

Link to his site seems broken, however I do remember being very impressed with the pics I saw of his tattoos.

Not something we'd want to do sorry.
Try Lou Molloy at Middleton.

If you fancy a trek up to Blackpool, the Dragons Den is worth looking at. Loads of their work is shown on their facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Blackpool-United-Kin...

It's too "sickly", "faddy" (for want of better terms) and we are not religious.

So you don't do a tattoo if you don't like it?

That's not what I said.

So you don't do a tattoo if you don't like it?

To be fair to the comment, as an artist, a tattooist has to be passionate about the subject matter to give it 100%. So yes, to some degree a tattooist wouldn't - or perhaps shouldn't - do a tattoo if they don't like the design.

I wouldn't want ink done by a tattoist who's not really bothered about my design to want to put the effort in to ensure it looks it's best.

You wouldn't get an architect who prefers restoration-style projects to design an ultra-modern house, since they won't be passionate about it.

quick question:

have you ever made a spelling mistake on a tattoo?
