  1. Well I guess I don't think of it from a necessity stand point, more from my personal standpoint. For example, if I were lucky enough to get a tattoo by Myke Chambers next year, I would like to have him initial it with 14, not so people would know it was Myke's work but for me as if it were a commissioned painting.

    There's no Point, as much as a dislike Myke chambers he does have a distinct enough style that you don't need to get it timestamped or whatever.

  2. Just curious, what don't you like about Chambers' work? I happen to like most of his stuff I wonder if I'm missing something.

    For me, the biggest problem with Myke Chambers is that he's been tattooing for 20 years and his work looks the way it does. he dumbs down great traditional iconic images so that people who don't know traditional tattoos that well, will like them. he also uses the same stencils for every panther he does, so anyone with a panther from him in the last year or so has the same one, same shading same layout. there no variation in his work and i think it actually keeps getting worse.

  3. Thanks, that wasn't in the original design, but when i saw that it got added i knew it had to happen.

    That gangster shark wearing flannel in your gallery cracks me up. Rad stuff!

    The Flannel wasn't in the original design I was referencing, but once i saw that he added that in i knew it had to happen

  4. I think that if you own a flash sheet or collection of sheets you can bring that to an artist as long as they are going to do the design your bringing them justice. Recently i drove from MA to Milwaukee to see the Dietzel exhibit and bought the first volume of the flash collection and when i returned home i went to a local artist, who i knew would be proud to do a Dietzel design and she did a great job. to me that is different than printing the design offline and not knowing the significance of the flash you are getting tattooed on you.

  5. Hello everyone, its truly an honor and privilege to be able to be a member of this community, whether its tattoo collectors, tattooers or fans of the craft, it's nice to actually be a member with so many like minded people. i'm from Boston and have been collecting tattoos since i turned 18. What i love about the craft of tattooing and collecting tattoos is being able to meet artists I look up to, not only for being masters of their craft but because they work hard and respect tattooing more than anything else. again, its nice to be able to join everyone on this site, and i hope i get to know all of you.

    thanks for your time...
