did most of the laser places charge for a consult? I have a big piece on my back that I'd like to lighten and cover but most wanted $100-200 for the consult and if I go with the procedure that money will go to the treatment. I'm just concerned with what the treatment will cost, it's pretty much my whole back :(

Love it! How stoked was Ben to do that? I think he has a Frenchie (and a crazy chihuahua, if I'm not mistaken).
He's got 3 chihuahuas and I believe 2 are tattooed on him... Taki has a frenchie :D
He actually said pets are a challenge because it needs to look not just like a dog but my dog. And it does!!

Go to Lucky's and see Luke Wessman.
Last I heard Luke had relocated to NY, this was about a month ago..
Another option is Dominic Vasquez at Flying Panther I've seen this cat rock out some good stuff.Dominic gets down as does Rob Benavides, I believe he's the owner of FP.
Ben Grillo is also at FP a few days out of the week and though he's known for his insanely detailed B&G tattoos he's dabbling in some nice traditional as well... super cool guy too :D

for those of us in recovery, it definitely makes you grateful to be one of the lucky ones. I can understand why a 'normie' may look down at her and pass blame because they can't understand the addict mentality without being one and suffering from it themselves.
I'm sure it's a lot harder to hit bottom with a nice supply of money and unfortunately we see the demise of celebrities all too often, not to say that it doesn't happen just as much to us regular folk... I know at least 4 people that have passed in the last 2 months as a result, either directly or indirectly, to using drugs and alcohol. My 2 best friends that I got clean/sober with both passed away, one was 2 years into my recovery, the other was 2 months ago...
For a dope fiend like me I know that one is too many and a thousand is never enough..... So far, 6+ years later I'm still one of the lucky ones and for that I'm grateful....

As for the other stuff written in here, for a second I had to check my url to make sure I was on LST and not the other tattoo forums...... With that being said this thread/user does seems a bit fishy as this image is on every other tattoo internet site as their icon but lets try to stay positive and not scare off potential new tattoo customers or LSTers. Lets try to educate them so they can get good tattoos and support good tattooers all the while learning how getting a tattoo should be done.
That's really all I was trying to say

photoshop mistake is in the upper right corner you can see the tribal in black (over the black background) as the image was placed over
the guy is standing in front of a tribal background, the tattoo doesn't match the pattern in the background.
I love this forum but the responses to this thread remind me of another shitty tattoo forum that I found before LST. Who are we to clown the tattoo that this guy wants? As people with more tattoo knowledge than the average TLC watcher, its our duty to help people, especially noobs, to get good quality work, not make them feel dumb for wanting something that we wouldn't necessarily get. I know that I have tattoos that others wouldn't get but I really don't give a shit, they're MY tattoos. Just because this dude wants some tribal doesn't mean the rest of us have to
Maybe he's a troll, maybe not but I do know that they're trying to make this forum grow and with that growth is gonna be more people asking questions like this. Maybe that growth isn't the best idea for this crowd.
If Crafty wants to share where he's from maybe someone could suggest a local artist that won't fuck him up....
Sorry for the rant but shit...... arrogance and tattoos don't make a pretty picture, IMO....

that was rad.... I want more!

I doubt you'll hurt any feelings here......

While I am going to seek out other artists for the rest of the open space I would not trade off my current outline to someone else. I think he is doing a pretty good job right on it now.
Then that's all that matters. No need to defend yourself on the internet to people you've never met and probably never will....

I'm surprised that Ed Hardy didn't make his list...

there's a guy 45 minutes from me that does AMAZING black and grey work, he's tattooed a bunch of my friends with some amazing shit, and has no tattoos himself. He's always been an amazing artist and decided to start tattooing, it seems to have come natural to him. He also grew up in one of the 'hoods so maybe the homeboys encouraged him.
Another guy that did a lot of my work, who is also an amazing artist/painter/tattooer, only has a bunch of scratch from when he was 15. He's now in his 30's and hasn't got anything since being a youngster.
Maybe the fact that both grew up in the hood has something to do with it but no one can take away from the fact that they're great tattooers. Not everyone tattoos to be a part of the 'scene', some just like transferring their art into another media....
