I can't wait
to be an octagenarian with full sleeves and head and neck tattoos. One thing I have on my side is that I prefer to get geometric work rather than figurative, which ages much better. I'll be even more awesome then than I am now, which is pretty feckin' awesome ;-)

I prefer
geometric work too, and am working on getting my first sleeve finished by Dan DiMattia.

I'm definitely addicted to tattoos.

Pictures!
I want to see.

BTW, who is the best tattoo artist in the world?

Best tattoo artist in the world...
That's a bit like saying who's the best artist in the world - there are so many different styles. The Leu family is something of a dynasty and several of them (some no longer alive) are widely regarded as among the best; Filip's work is particularly so. I have many favourites and am trying to get work by as many of them as possible. I won't go through the list but one I've discovered recently is Ben Grillo - search MySpace people for his site and have a look at his pictures for more. He does incredibly detailed tiny pieces with a minute needle in single dots, to insanely great effect.

Dan DiMattia...
...is also insanely good. I have been a big fan of his stuff for some time. I have had my sleeves mostly done by Xed LeHead and Tomas Tomas who are working in a very similar style.

Most
of my stuff was done by Xed, although due to circumstances I haven't been able to afford any new work for a while, I haven't been to Xed since he left Into You anyway.

I keep bumping into Tomas at the tube station where I work, he goes to yoga round there or something.
