I have been thinking about getting some. What is the go to shop in town. For what I am thinking I need someone who does a bit more then trace picture number 14 on the wall.









And before someone asks I am going to get something original, like a bird or a flower.

I think the issue is more in the line of what style are you looking for and what artist out there is going to get you the best results. All artists will have their own style as well as specialize in various classic styles. If you are not looking for "number 14" I would consult with a number of them before making your final decision. Look up any local tattoo shows where there may be a number of artists and shops displaying their work in one place.

Which is why I asked. Been thinking on what I want for a tattoo for a few years now. And a butterfly or a USMC flag or bulldog aint gonna do it for me.

If I were back in a financial comfort zone, I'd consider finding someone like him to fix my lame one into a more cool tat.
