Tattoist in the Northwest

[Paule]

Has anyone got any recomendations

Needs to be good at linework and grey shading

I have spent a good while designing it and working out how i want it done.

The hard part now is finding someone decent to do it.

Re: Tattoist in the Northwest

At trhe moment I have only spoken to Lou Molloy and he has quoted me £400 for it, just that he has a 9 month waiting list, although he may get me in on a cancellation.

This is a rough design of it, Its an ambigram of my kids names
but i will be having it done in a 'pressed' effect, hence the shading

Re: Tattoist in the Northwest

What size and where on your body PK? as £400 seems a little steep to me.

I have four tattoos and one of them has delicate linework and shading and a lot more complicated than just lettering. I would definitely shop around, Lou Molloy may be good but again depending on the size an location of the tattoo that does seem quite expensive.

It will be approx 6" x 3" on my arm

The drawing above doesnt show the shading required though, just the lettering.
I have samples of the shading effect required so the tattoo artist will have to make that work

Louis is worth it, one of the best tattoists in the UK.

One of my tats cost £250 and its only 1" by 2" I would rather pay more and have brilliant work done.

Nice designs PK! Are you going to have them both done on the the same day?

It is only one tattoo, If you turn the top design upside down, it will read as the bottom image.

I am looking to have it down the outside top of my arm.

Pkea... I can recommend Rod and the crew at Skin Fantasy in Burnley.

They did all mine, and 2 of them were from pictures that I took in, they also did Sven's last tatt, which was an amalgamation of a few together, basically a wolf and some other stuff, that covers most of one of his calfs and only cost about £250.

They are good, and they are rather reasonable.
