As a veteran of 14 tattoos, I can say that both Richards and Draconians have given the same quality of work. However, like has been said before, Richards attitude was a disgrace.
I once went in there wanting a full back-piece. I appreciate he couldn't just fit me in that day so I said that I'd be there first thing in the morning the next day and I'd give 100% deposit for the tattoo if he keeps the first slot open for me. He just said 'No mate, we don't do bookings, you'll just have to turn up and hope no-one's there before you."
Needless to say I didn't get it done there.

his attitude is pretty poor. i got one done there by him, one by kev at tribe 2 in glasgow and one by rob at tribe 1 in edinburgh. kev is the boy and i'll absolutely be going there again. he's a lovely guy, takes real pride in his work and is well worth a shout. tribe aren't cheap, but you're getting inked so you want it done right!

I've had 2 by Kev at Draconian and 1 by Richard. Both are the very high quality, Richard's was cheaper, and although Kev was a lot nicer, I didn't experience any of the problems that other people have had with Richard's attitude. He just didn't chat, but that's not really any skin off my nose. Have heard very good things about Kev at Tribe 2, so I might give him a go for my next one.

I got my first tat at richards, not much wrong with it, just the experiance wasnt very pleasant, putting it in other words, the boys a prick!

All the rest of my tats have been done by Stix at Drac, and i have to say artwork aside, it is just a much friendlier place, maybe because ive been there consistanlty for the past three years ( a year for my arm, 6 months for my back etc) time to get quite friendly with all of them there.

Oh hold on Kev at Drac done my Biohazard tattoo, which was my second tattoo, first one there!!

So Draconian all the way!!

Deary me, if there's anything I've learnt about this site it is never to voice a negative opinion about Retro Rebels or Karloff...

More of my work outta Richards, Batman, as he appears in this:



The photos not great, but I couldn't be more happy with the tat, the shading is awesome, 'specially seeing as it's from painted source material.
