    Yea, there was a really good bloke ( a kiwi i think? ) in Canberra who did some good work, but I just couldn't get booked in in time before I left. I want to get a LFC emblem done which will hopefully have the addition of another European Championship on Thursday, then a freehand job relating to my Navy days. See how those go and then I have a bigger plan in mind for later on, but that will draw on a few of lifes experiences.

    Hmmm

    Well I like my tattooist, Steve. He works at Underground Art/Tattoo museum.

    Rodger from Rodger's was really good too....not sure if he's still working tho.

    And Primal art has some pretty damn hot...er...I mean talented artists working there

    But...I still think Underground Arts is where it's at!

    5 tattoos and happy with their growing progress

    I've seen great work from all these places.

    I know some good Samoans that will do it the old fashioned way. If that doesn't suit then I'll give it a go.

    My wife recommends Roger. She has seven from him.

    I have no professionally done tattoos (all amateur) so can't really comment.

    Slipstream - is Steve at Underground Art Steve Maddock?

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Definitely Roger but I had heard he's retired.

    Here's some of his work.

    My goal in life is to be as good a person as my dog already thinks I am.

    Roger retired? Man that makes me feel old, he's done three of my four!

    My nephew, Dave McEwan is really good - he's a talented artist in his own right and a damned good tattooist - I think he's in Upper Hutt now and the shop was called Tattoo Freaky.
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!
