Lucky 13 Tattoo

I drop in during a slow workday with an off-the-cuff idea.  The artist draws it up, we discuss, he redraws, it's figured out in about 15 minutes and done in a little over an hour.  At the time, it was the highest quality work I've had done to date.

Then, last week I go in and have an idea that just doesn't work.  What can I say, I don't tattoo... but we discuss, he draws it up with some changes that will work as a tattoo and a few days later, I've got another piece that I'm thrilled with!  

Bob Knox is the artist I've been working with and he is just that.  He knows tattoos and knows me as a customer.  I spit out ideas and he makes them real and does them justice!  

From what I've seen of the other work being done in this shop, there's no mystery why they're one of the best in a tattoo town like RVA.  Factor in that the whole staff is friendly and good at making me feel comfortable when I walk in, and we're in business!

I only wish I had more skin!

Went in on Saturday evening and got both my cartilage and my nipple pierced.  Tiff was my piercer and was awesome.  I warned her that Im bad with needles and she just chatted with me and next thing I knew I was done.  I would recommend her to anyone--didnt hurt that the price was right too.  Other places I checked with were more than double the price.  Long story short, If you want something pierced go see Tiff!

This place is awesome.  Adam was my tattoo artist and I did a cover up tattoo and a new one on my wrist (script).  He free-handed the cover up.  The only thing I didn't like is that it wasn't on a first come first serve basis so I sat there for 4 hours before being seen.  After that let the pain begin.
