I want to get another..... but been a while since my last one.
Who do people recommend that have had tatoo's?
Want someone decent....

Absolutions have a very good reputation.
Heard nothing but good about Southern Ink as well and they have done all my facial piercings. I'm going down to Timaru to 4 Skin in a couple of weeks to get some done by a man by the name of Russ. My sister is a friend of his and I've seen some of his work which was flawless even with white ink which is notorious.

Ive had all my work done at southern ink and my sister gets her work done at Absolution, which is flawless!

personally, i only use Down Under Tattoos.. run by steve johnson... who is paid by the biker gangs in america to fly over there and do thier tats... walk into his shop, and the walls are lined with awards... awesome work, so you know whoever he has working for him, is gonna be pretty good.

Did you end up getting another tat?

I've recently gone & got a couple done & after asking around went to Downunder & had Steve's son Kelly do mine, Daniel also has had a couple done - he paid :lol:

What do you guys and girls get tattooed? Ive always wanted one over my shoulders and across my back but have never really known what i wanted, i dont want some tribal one that every one seems to get, do you design your own or just choose something out of a book?

Ive got my family crest tatood on my back (10hours)and a maori styled NZ down my right forearm(3hours). Getting left sleve started next week of japanese style (35hours)

by **DXROLLA** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 11:56 am

Shit i hate to think what it would cost with them sought of hours involved

Do you have any pics of ya tats?

by **XSVWGN** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 12:01 pm

um ... yea i do have some pics somewhere so i will have a look. MY back turned out to be $800, forearm was $250 i think and my sleve will be about $2000 plus. First session on the 1st October of 5hours just for outline!!!

by **BR0Z** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 12:03 pm

Hey

I got one from the internet - a NZ Fern with half being an irish knot design & on my upper arm. The other I suppose looks like a tribal arm band but is again an Irish / Celtic knot design I copies from a signet ring I have.

A couple of hours each st $250 - 2nd $300.

My son Daniel has the Michael Campbell 95pinehurst golf open shirt(back) design - a Maori design of a hammer head shark which he had done on his back for $400

I'll probably get another done at some stage

by **XSVWGN** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 12:04 pm

And heres my forearm

by **DXROLLA** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 12:31 pm

by **XSVWGN** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 12:35 pm

Should have also gotten a "No Entry" or "Exit Only"
Just in case....

I am plannign another as well, but me thinks prices have gone up from the $50 I paid last time!

by **frost** » Tue May 11, 2010 8:31 pm

hell yeah it went up, its only 7cm long and it was $100. not complicated at all just plain writing,

im not complaining as the lines are really tight and straight and came out perfect, but i figured it'd be $50 or something,
well, better to pay more for quality then get wrong spelling or AIDS!!

by **h8wrxs** » Mon Sep 20, 2010 1:30 am

got that done by andy at left hand path tattoos

(this sits just under the new zealand on my right shoulder)

a mate did the new zealand though
