Well, he let me "have a go" at tattoing my Dad so I wouldn't say they were the most professional outfit.

I got a simple white ink tattoo done there about 7 or 8 years ago. Happy enough with it, but i'd definitely go somewhere else for complex ones.

Paul Slifer's work is awesome, I wouldn't go anywhere else at the moment. When I was getting my left arm done he said that Richard tried to get him to work in Aberdeen to no avail.

Nice tattoo Scott! Gonna go see him towards the end of the year about a back piece.

Sweet, really like this! Saw this on his myspace earlier. Just spoke to Sarah Schor at Red Hot and Blue and paid a deposit so she is starting drawing a half sleeve for me to be done in the next few months!

Been scouring Tattoo Magazine - Skin Deep and Skin Shots Forum - Powered by vBulletin for a while and every time you search for good reports on tattoo artists in Scotland you get the same answers...Paul Slifer, Richard Pinch, Sarah Schor and an unbelieveable number of people recommened Gary Weidenhoff @ Inkredible Kreations in Perth whos work of all styles is undeniably awesome! Sorry but Richards the only Aberdeen based tattooer who seems to get a look in.

I went down to Edinburgh to see Paul before the first tattoo he did for me. Mind you, this is because I wanted to see the place beforehand. Got a tracing of my arm done as well. For some reason I always book early appointments with him, which meant when I when to get the colour done on my right arm I had to get up at 5am in the sodding morning. The upside was, when he learned of this, he gave me a free t-shirt and pin badge. Moral of story = not only is Paul an awesome tattooist, he's a thoroughly nice bloke.

Nautical theme for the one on me back methinks.

Pauls work is Old School. Richard does awesome Japanese though.
