Title: Attention New Yorkers thinking of getting a tattoo between April 14th & May 10th
Post by: Jason on March 29, 2010, 03:28:30 PM: My very good friend Liam Sparkes will be tattooing at East River Tattoo in Greenpoint for four weeks.
I'm not just recommending him because he's my pal, he is also extremely talented.
Mention my name for a good price.

Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on March 29, 2010, 09:16:30 PM: if i were in NY during this time frame, i would most definitely visit him. i've got a few tattoos i'm waiting on because the guy i normally use has moved; unfortunately, no one else has come highly recommended.

VonTito, if you ever find yerself in GA, there is an excellent guy in my town. He did my bf's sheriff star, belt and holster and gun and is working on my Venus de Milo and so far it looks really beautiful. He should be in a bigger town getting famous, but for some reason he likes it here.

It's great to know a tattoo artist 1) because of all the stories and 2) because it suddenly becomes affordable to get stuff done (even if that also means you might be getting more stuff done than you should) - but it helps if they're actually good. And Erik's super talented. His studio has a pretty cool website, which is in Swedish but well worth visiting anyway: http://buzzstop28.se

although, in sweden's defense, i'm sure it's much more fun than GA.

VonTito:
Here's my friend Wes' http://www.eternaltattoos.net/page4.html
Warning: There is a Gene Simmons tattoo
Also, while Sweden would be way fun, if you ever came to GA to visit I would totes make sure you have an awesome time!

Post by: iAmBaronVonTito on March 30, 2010, 01:57:04 PM: i have decided that if i need someone's face tattooed on me, your friend is my guy. but seriously, i like his shading and that's really what i'm looking for.

this is great! thanks for the link, Bonnie. also, i will make a point to stop in GA some time this year (after summer?) so you can show me a good time.

FOT meetup in Capetown, perchance?
