    So it looks like I'll be getting a new tattoo and wanted to get some opinions.

    Current plan is to get an image of Batman standing in front of a mirror (dresser, whatever). This would be all black and white. Except we'd notice in the mirror that Batman is wearing joker face paint (colour) and around is various objects belonging to his rogue gallery, all in colour. Surrounding the whole thing will be various incarnations of Joker.

    This'll be on the calf/leg/that whole region. I'm worried about the area not being big enough for the detail and also the curve throwing the whole thing off. Maybe it work better on the ribs.

    Artist wise I'm thinking Rob Mulligan. He'll be good for the colour and should be good for the different styles that will in this piece.

    Details wise, and this will be for the comic book fans, I'm thinking Riddler's cane, Hush's jacket, Ivy's orchid, Penguin's bottle (Is that full canon or too unknown). Joker wise I got Arkaham City, Serious House on a Serious Earth, Animated Series and All Star Batman and Robin. Anyone got any recommendations?

    A friend of mine has some amazing work done by Kris in Wildcat. In fact he has received several awards for the piece in question. Would highly recommend you check it out in his portfolio and see for yourself.

    Love the new joker from Death of the Family. Only saw the cover for the collection in easons the other day. Would have bought it, but the sleeve was torn and was the only copy left. :(

    Thanks for the recommendations. I'll have to admit I haven't looked his portofolio properly but I have liked what I've seen. Must have a proper gander.

    Haven't read that one Damo. must have a looky.

    That's my sleeve above. Kris is amazing. You should pop in and have chat with him, he puts some seriously cool ideas across when you talk with him.
