Hello Everyone, I am not a tattooer but have been drawing and painting for fun for the last couple years. This thread was initially very helpful in regards to materials. Thanks to everyone who shared here. I have attached a few of the recent things I have done. These are all on Arches and painted using a combination of PH Martins and FW liquid acrylics. I have really enjoyed the process and watching things very slowly improve. It sure beats watching TV for late night activity. I'd love to hear some thoughts from those with more experience. Great forum! Nate

I picked up both of these this week at Seven Seas Tattoo in San Diego. The girl head is by Thor and the panther head/rose is by Dan Pryor.

I just checked out these peoples instagram and I think the picture at the link below answers your question about if they are selling supplies to the public. There is a picture of a giant billboard advertising their supply company. Instagram I'm not a tattooer, but I have to say I find this really irresponsible.

I got this one done by Phil Hatchet Yau this weekend at Ink-n-Iron. He's a great tattooer and also really fast.

It was fun overall but I would agree with your assessment. There was some great tattooing going on though and i came home with a really nice eagle from Phil Hatchet-Yau (picture below). That definitely still made it worthwhile. I'd love to come check out the SFO convention. I may need to make it up there this year.
