I got a wrap around tribal round my lower left arm from richards. He wasnt a dick at all, was pretty nice to talk to. When i showed him the design i wanted he came up with a better way to lay it out on my arm (wrap around). Hell he even asked if i wanted my other bad tattoo repaired and drew up a few things we could do with it. Id recommend him

Catwoman is on my arm as part of of on-going work on a Batman sleeve. Bats himself looks like this:



Got alla my tats done at Richards, got a flaming eightball on my oother arm and a sort of devil-girl thing.

ive had tattoos from both establishments and i find all the tattoists to be good if not great at their work. im getting a sleeve done by jimmy at richards and the more time i spend with the guy the more pleasing he becomes, ur not there to get pussy footed around your gonna be in pain and thats something u have to attain to when u go there, anywhere. i find the walk in great, u get there early and they fit u in first....if u want it that bad then u just turn up. richards work is amazing, he might be e grumpy twat but as an artist so wud i if i had kids coming in wanting stars on their wrists and chinese symbols put on em! they are artists, go in with a decent peice and u may see a diffrence.

brenna the peircest is great, but id go to john at retro rebels.

all in all they are both great studios...............man up......nae nursery rhymes when getting inked ok. bite down and relax. dry yer eyes

Disagree with virtually every word of that. No other business would get away with being such a cunt to their customers. I dunno how he stays in business, as virtually everybody I know who's been inked there has complained either about him being a wanker or getting shoddy work done. If I went into a shop, or a hairdressers, and got a mouthful of shit from some jumped-up arsehole with a superiority complex, nae chance I'd be going back to that shop or hairdressers. Which is the very same reason I'll never go back to Richards.

I still dont know where to go! I have checked out Studio 13 in Edinburgh and it looks pretty dam good! My girlfriend is booked in next week at a place called Love hate Tattoo also in Edinburgh, so will see how that goes. I'm not sure about Richard's because as this will be my first tattoo I would like to be comfortable and not have a prick in my face doing my first tattoo! At least thats the impression I'm getting! This is the Tattoo I want, will change the numbers on the cards for my year of birth... but apart from that I want it EXACTLY like that.

I had a large Dragon done on my back by Draconian a few years ago, it looks as good now as it did originally (wish I could say the same for me). Very little fading and I'm still pleased with the way it looks, if their service and artwork is as good now as it was then, I would highly recommend them.

Red Hot and Blue tattoo in Edinburgh, I'm telling ya! Going back there to get my next quarter sleeve done.

[Trebor]

Could anyone advise me as to how much this would cost and where the best place to get it done would be?? Also, do I need to get a template or anything of it or would a photo suffice?

Its the heart tribal design on Anthony Kiedis arm.

Here is a picture followed by the closest thing I can find to a way of showing the whole thing.

There's certainly nothing wrong with his tattoo skills. The man is very good.
