Want Ink?
Published by Connor O'Bain
23rd March 2007
Want Ink?

As you may be aware I am in training to be a tattoo artist, and it has come to the point where I am looking for volunteers. At the moment I need people who are looking for new tribal tattoos and people with old tribal tattoos that they would be interested in giving a fresh coat of ink. We will need to see your design and placement before we can tell you if it is suitable, as some designs and body areas may be more suited to training than others. Obviously I must stress that I am in training but the sessions will have Leon (who has been tattooing for 13 years) and Matt (who has been tattooing for seven years) on hand to supervise.

Just to summarise:

- At the moment I am looking for ONLY black tattoos

- Your tattoo will be done at a slower pace and will possibly need retouching after it has healed

- In the case of new tribal tattoos, the outline will be done by either Leon or Matt, I will be filling it in

- As you will not be getting a tattoo done by a qualified tattoo artist it will be FREE. This does not mean however that this is a chance for you to get that massive tribal tattoo that was quoted for £300 for nothing. The onus is on me filling it in. If there is more to the outline than the actual colouring it is not worthwhile me doing it.

- Tattoos will be done at a slower pace as they are a learning exercise, so a design that would normally take one session may take two or three

- The studio operates on a “if you look under 25 we will I.D. you” policy. This is regardless if you have been tattooed before. So if you are under 25 or look it, bring I.D.

- We understand that most people are working and we will try to be accommodating in arranging a time but understand that we will be mainly working within our opening hours of Mon- Fri from 10am to 5.30 and Sat 9am to 5pm

If anyone is interested please PM me with some details and an image if possible. I shall get back in touch.
