  • not my most recent but certainly my largest. Adding a lovecraft quote to the other shoulder soon, possibly adding a monstrous whale to the bottom half.

    wow!

  • I want an Alex Pardee piece, need to find a good tattooist for that one.
    Supposedly going to the london convention this fri (yeah I know its overrated and blah blah, but there's some names Im interested in meeting) so hopefully Ill find someone.


  • This will be my next tattoo, top of my arm, might need to invert the colours.. need to find an artist now!!

  • Blackwork and dotwork, two of my favourite things :D

    Yeah man, Thomas Hooper kills it.

    yeah it is Escher.. I love him! Would be interesting to see the leg piece I couldn't find examples of it as a tattoo on t'internet

  • Htfu!

  • Hahaha you got me..

  • the artist's name is klem. he's incredibly talented and a very nice guy as well. http://www.klemtattoo.blogspot.com/

  • Holy shit, Klem! He did my calf years ago.

    And I agree, he's a great guy.

  • Anyone going?

    I used to love conventions but got a bit burned out on them for some reason. This one's close and I haven't been to one in London so I'm still hemming and hawing.

  • Got a couple of friends doing things there, might pop along.

    ha, check a few pages back, its what my next escher is going to be.

  • Know fuck all about tattoos.
    Want this on the inside of my forearm (or maybe on me leg) at some point in the near future. Any recommendations of an artist who can nail this sort of thing, most appreciated

  • Looks cool mate, what's it from?

    Artistically it's not a difficult piece so I reckon you should check out a few parlours, speak to the artists and get their opinion, maybe see if they have any of their own ideas or if they'd do anything differently, then just pick the one you like the most.

  • Cool, i'll use some of the recco's from this thread, and pop in for a chat. The excerpt is a bit of Wagner

  • Braker
    Forever More Tattoo in Shepards Bush could be worth a try not sure how local that is to you,but I travelled over from Essex to get a Tat done there would recommend them.

  • Happy to travel.
    It doesn't look too complicated, but concerned that it may be difficult to get the stave lines perfectly parallel. Perhaps that's a naive concern.

    One more Q, for those in the know. There is a Yann Black tattoo that i would love to get in the future. Not sure if it's frowned upron, but would it be correct to request a replication from another artist who is local?

  • I wouldnt have thought so, theyll definitely want to make it their own in some way I should think.

  • That's massively frowned upon as it's outright plagiarism.
    If you want a Yann Black go see he in Montreal or wait until he's touring Europe again.

    If you want something in the style of Yann Black then maybe consider finding another artist with a similar style.

    If you want an exact copy of a Yann Black tattoo which you have seen, expect any reputable artist (Including Yann Black himself) to say no.
