pick up a copy of Skin Deep magazine, have a look see if any of the local artists have stuff in there you like.

if i can find the right one they had a uk listing a few months ago, i'll have a look and give you a list of local ones to you.

Cheers all,
I've been through the net and into a few studios and I think I know what I want.
I've seen Hep Kats website, I think its not too far from me. Price isn't so important (i'm broke anyway). I want somewhere i can trust.

Mate there is a guy in Greenwich who is very good. Even tat blokes in Cyprus know him. He's got a great rep.
I could get his number for you if you want?
Be warned he is not cheap. Approx £100 an hour.

Ho wow, please can you put a pic on the gallery so we can all see how red and sore it is :lol:
Don't pick the scab when it all dry's out or it will ruin the tat :!:

Hi Vicki
I took a self portrait after about 2 hrs and it doesn't look red. I uploaded it to the Misc section of the gallery . . . . or so I thought, but I can't find it. When I do I'll put up a link. Nothing exciting though, tribal butterfly-like across the shoulders and the kids names underneath

Tried uploading pics myself and they ended up in the wrong section ! Yours will be there somewhere !

Try this link. It's not very clear because I had to edit to reduce the file size and I took it myself . . . not easy ! !
