Some good stuff. They have that old school flash style that I never really like but they make it somewhat tolerable. Theo has some dope stuff.

yup! try going to a tatt shop and check their work out and try to see what artist you'll be comfortable with. getting a nice professional looking tattoo is worth the wait

I've been getting a full sleeve done by my artist. For my money he's the best in the City, his name is Mario Delgado. He just opened up a small shop right above the Chinatown tunnel, and the other artist in the studio specializes in tribal work. Both are incredible artists, both are reasonable in terms of rates and very accommodating.

Best thing about Mario is that he's an excellent artist, so you can really have a back and forth about what you want to get. Seriously can't say enough good things. Anyway, PM me and maybe I can help get you a deal.

Happy inking!

Abraham has really good script.
Toby at HB also has dope script.
