Hey Yokai!
So you are into a bit of pain eh?
I KNEW I liked you for a reason ;-)
Guy that did mine...and I'm VERY happy with it......was Chris at Eastside Tattoing in Howick.
He was really good.
Getting my next one done there too!
Luce.

Hey RR, if your going to carry a dragon, technically it should be on the left side of your body for balance and harmony. If you want ideas go to "Here be dragons" or "Dragon Realm Studios" or do a google search and you will find hundreds of websites with pics.

I've had Artrageous recommended to me but haven't had ink work done there personally so don't know what he's like, but i have had a peircing done there which was very hygienic and professional.

Cheers, will do that. Didn't know about the left side thing - my seahorse is on left hip, so that will make it even more interesting to find a spot for it.

I can recommend DERMAGRAPHICS on college hill...

I've had a few items done there and the guys are great. Not too pricey and quite forgiving when you wince like a wuss!!!

Get the design drawn up and go and have it placed on your body and then go away for a week or two to think about it. (they can place a transfer of the tat and then you take a digital photo of it.

Make sure whoever you go to uses the right cleaning methods ... electro whatzits and alike...

Don't get your first tattoo on yer face!!!

I'm told it's your best angle!

Got mine at 'tattoo art' in the lane off Queen Street (Vulcan?). Simple 1 colour geometrics so no great skill demonstrated, but they were OK guys.

Oh that's not good. But he will be remembered by many every time they look at his artwork.

Someone ask for pain?

**Ramius** · 26th January 2005, 17:49

Could someone please recommend a good tattoo removalist.

I want two of my three removed. How is that for good stats, 33% of my tattoos I actually liked.

However, I am going for my fourth soon!!!! F*ck yeah!
