Looking to get a pin up tattoo similar to the style of these ones here:

Anybody got a tattoo of this type?

Any reccomendations for an artist? Want to be sure on the artist as it will hopefully be a big piece.

Cheers

Soon as I read "pin up tattoo" I was picturing the exact same kind of images, like the pin ups that they used to paint on the american fighters/bombers

Unfortunately, I've no suggestions as to who should do it, but ideally you'd be looking for someone that's good with portrait style tattoos, and good with colour

I would recommend Jani in the St. Stephen's Green branch of Wildcat. His style would be perfect for that, and he's done a good few pin-ups before.
There are a few of them in his online portfolio here - http://www.jani-art.com/v2/?page=color

Thanks for that. Had not seen those pictures before. There is a visiting artist in snakebite (think he is still there) called Jerson Filho and his stuff looks amazing

No, his stuff looks good.

If you wanted to go further a field there is Ian in Scotland. His main area of expertise is Pin-up art. Cant get much better than that really
