Joe Shit Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Hero TattooI can't remember where I came across this guy's work, but I keep coming back to it. My favourite tattooers aren't generally specialists. They are the ones that can work in any style, and still make it look like their own. I think that Jeff fits into this category. Jeff does real nice work..The shop is kind of out of the way,off of the highway in an industrial area.The building looks like an airport hanger.They just legalized tattooing down there a few years ago,and most of the shops are in industrial areas.Hero is the best shop down there.

ShawnPorter Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 is David Bruehl a really recognized artist? i've seen Shawn mention him on here, and while i wouldn't get some of the stuff he tattoos tattooed on me personally, i still like his work, especially his birds. i just haven't heard many people talk about him on here or in person.Tattoos and Art by David Bruehl Funny thing about David- He went to SCAD with Adam Hathorn (Honkeykong) from Guru Andrew Johnson-Lalley from Body Graphics. So weird that within a year of each other they all attended the same school and all became tattooers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turquoise Cherry Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Ryan Mason's work is awesome! I've been wanting something from him for quite some time now. Check out this amazing backpiece: Oh my goodness. That backpiece is so beautiful it honestly makes me feel slightly dizzy to look at it.

Iwar Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Frank Carter! Sure, he's gotten tons of recognition as the former lead singer of Gallows, but everyone might not be familiar with his tattooing. Works alongside @Valerie Vargas and @Stewart Robson at Frith Street from time to time.

Iwar Posted September 15, 2011 Author Share Posted September 15, 2011 Last post before I'm turning in for the night... I might be a little bias as I have several tattoos from Marius, but I think he deserves a spot in this thread too.

Turquoise Cherry Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 that skeleton mermaid is fuckin awesome We're not the only ones who think so. His waiting list has been closed forever. I intend to keep trying. Same with Jeff Gogue. He is utterly astonishing. I'll be getting a tattoo from him before I die, so I will!

eisen777 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Ron Henry Wells (hedid a hand of mysteries on me)...i think you guys know if him but people esp in New England really need to learn whats up. Ollie Street by Street, Blog by Blog. he doesn't post a lot of his tattoos since he is picky and is lazy about his blog. But the guy is simple, clean and tattoos damn well. I enjoy his style. He did a woman face on me that's IMO close to perfect. Turquoise Cherry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Wier Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Joe McGill in Lawrence, Kansas. Like so many artists we know, all he wants out of life is to do quality work and provide for his family. The guy's a class act and a tattooist of accomplished skill.

NathanShearer Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 I'm relatively new to the forum and the tattoo world but I definitely think that Frank Carter deserves recognition. I've got three tattoos done by him and couldn't be happier with them. One of the tattoos was a walk in done about a month ago which he stayed late to finish which I thought was really cool. He's a good guy who does awesome tattoos and couldn't recommend him enough. Also Miles at Frith Street Tattoo is an amazing artist, got my first tattoo from him and it's incredible. He can do any style and has a ton of cool stories about tattooing and travelling. Sorry about the quality of some of the pictures, I'm no photographer. The top three tattoos are by frank and the bottom one is by miles. Shannon Shirley, Hrubarb, jayessebee and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
