    davey, ive been looking for a piercing apprenticeship, not a tattoo artist apprenticeship.
    just because i have a smidgen of knowledge about tattoos does not and will not make me a good tattoo artist. main reason being i cant draw stuff to save my life. :)

    there are one or two tattoo artists on this forum i believe

    One matchstick man pinup tattoo coming right up davey180 :p

    I'm going to be in Snakebite next month to get my conches punched, so I'll definitely inquire, even if it's just out of curiosity. I'm still in college and travelling this summer so the timing wouldn't be the best either :(
