And then once you're in with these guys you've typically got a foot in the door for more work | tbh i think both of them does mediocre black and gray work. In you are in to black and gray there are TONS of way better artist that will happily take new clients in the states. There is also a few in Canada on the eastcoast
This city definitely need more black and gray talent

Wow it's been a while! Got my first tattoo in 5 years, done by Horitsuki (Dust Wu) at Galaxy III (they had a flash day today)
This froggy frog is perfect for me! Especially considering it was a flash and I would have taken this as a custom design any time.
I also won a $1000 HKD voucher so it looks like I'll be getting another soon as well |

If anyone is looking for B&G flowers, (IMO) the best artist for that subject in Vancouver is doing a flash day on Friday
$350 these are 8x5"
Other great B&G artists there too, I'd hit it up FOR SURE

I know this is like asking experienced track drivers where I can go to race for a day but ... are there any places that offer temporary tats? Kind of like a test drive, if you know what I mean.

I've had a lot of close calls in my life, so to remember I've almost gotten to know him on a few different occasions. He's always waiting for you, life is so immensely fragile and can be gone in a flash when you least expect it so it's a reminder for me to always keep busting my ass and never settle for mediocrity. Also, I have picked a profession that has fairly higher risk (especially in the early stages of the career) than "most" other careers so to always keep him in the back of my mind whenever i'm working.
And I didn't want your standard grim tattoo so we made it a little more "traditional" ferryman/Charon with him in his boat on the river styx with his staff, and gonna toss in a plane silhouette in there too.

Curious what you guys do for tipping. My first two i tipped, third the artist refused a tip, and now i have a large piece I'm starting in September. Do you tip based on % regardless or if the rates fairly high do you just tip an amount?

either way if its a large piece then its gonna take multiple long sessions which means youll probably make a friend out of it. Why not consider giving them a gift? if they like to drink then give a nice bottle, if they like to smoke then couple cartons or cigars.

Latest addition, blackwork snake by @ku.619
It's beat to shit in this pic, doesn't do the work justice - my skin gets really inflamed so fresh pics never look as good as others I see. I'll have to post healed pics later |

I went to go see Jesse at Blackwater tattoo after a nice 3 year long break. I figured it was about time to finish up my 1st piece and get the next one started. I Extended my half sleeve to a full sleeve and now that I think about it should've just done that from the beginning so that the art flows better. Anyways, here's todays work, gotta go back for shading in 2 weeks. Cant wait to see what it looks like when its all shaded in. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn5QCFaBUy5/ |
