You should do standup comedy. I would never get inked by someone who is not inked. Who are you to say 99% of tats are poorly done or thought out? Oh the guy who a tattoo shop but not a tattoo.

The absolute best guy I found anywhere is in Phuket and has no personal tats. He was a graphic artist for a career, retired and opened up an ink shop. Way cool guy that does amazing work. He has folders and folders of photos of his work.

I asked him why no ink? He doesn't trust anyone to ink him and doing himself is problematic.

Girlfriend brought a picture. Gave it to him. We came back the next day. He had digitized it on the pc. He said it would come out just like on the pc. It did. It was a budda face. The features were perfect.

I've thought long and hard about what I would permanently ink myself with. There are a couple of things that are close but nothing has pushed me over the edge yet...

However if I ever do, this will be the guy.

+1 on don't drink and tat. Also if the guy doesn't have a large potfolio and many testimonials, run very, very fast.

I'm sorry, you must not have looked at the "20 worst tattoos" link. I am still wiping tears out of my eyes from the naked bucktoothed indian straddling a corndog tattoo.

How much mescaline does it take to come up with that one????

When my gf was searching we lloked at a lot of online ink and several "worst disaster" tatoo sites. With a lot of those you wonder who was the drunker person the artist or the canvass...

You are right, I didnt click that link. My eyes are damaged enough. But now you got me curious...
