amongst tattoo connoisseurs, how frowned upon is having a few different styles of tattoo? I dont think i could choose just one style. another issue might be trying to incorporate different styles into 1 sleeve, like if you got a couple of different pieces on your arm but one day wanted to make them a sleeve, that wouldn't really work would it. |

different styles on different parts of the body can definately work. I don't think you could incorporate different styles into one sleeve though. I have a patchwork sleeve, basically started off getting a few but in similar style then linked them all into a sleeve. What you thinking of getting mate? |

Personally, I think you can mix styles quite easily. What can be even more interesting is when styles are combined, for example a traditional Japanese image but done in a trad western style or geometric/pattern work amongst traditional Japanese stuff. I remember a guy on CT (C-Law) posting up his sleeve and he'd had a jap sleeve done but with some new school graffiti style bits added into it, looked great. It's like anything really, if done well, it works, if done badly then it doesn't. |

nothing for a while, I've always considered getting one but I'm in no rush so I'm just going to wait and see how life treats me over the next few years....although i've always liked jap style tattoos. looks good mate has anyone got either of those books on russian criminal tattoos? i think they are/were available on End. pretty interesting and whilst most are extremely offensive tattoos i think there's plenty of inspiration in there for some cool designs. also i like the sporadic-ness of them, although the location of the tattoo often has its own meaning. |

Maximus the new uncoloured stuff looks cool and actually more interesting than the coloured stuff cause it stands out more (to me) |

Cholo mate. Go see Tim Hendricks or Valerie Vargas. Thanks man.
Mr Cartoon is the boss of that shit ineff, don't know how easy it is to get tattoo'd by him though! Tim Hendricks and Steve Soto are both at the London tattoo convention in September Yeah that picture was by Mr Cartoon, I think the waiting list would be loooooong. From his assistant; "I do not have a street shop that’s open to the public, my studio is very If you are in LA i suppose it's still not overly expensive, but with flights + hotel it's racking up. |
