Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Virgin Skin......
Can anyone recommend a good place to get some ink? I have been looking for a place around the Castle Rock area and found a place called White Lotus Tattoo. This would be my first tattoo (I have one designed) so of course I want someone good to do it.
My determination to not strike the first blow, but also to not stand mute and allow myself, and all that I believe in and stand for, to be trampled by men who would deprive me of my God-given, or natural right to suit my own end.
I had my last one done at Dark Millinia in Englewood on Broadway & Oxford, don't know anyone in CR. Sorry.
Dont know the Castle Rock either, but lots of good stuff outta Th'ink Tank Tattoo in Denver. They are off Cedar and Broadway.

Redsky Tattoo on Wilcox in Castle Rock. The owner is fricken amazing. There's awards all over the wall. The work of the rest of the guys is pretty good stuff too.

Jim the owner isn't taking appointments till June contrary to the web site, but short of the new guy they have, all the guys have put out seriously good tattoos. The site has pics.
Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.
Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.
Been a couple of years since I've been there, But If Travis is still there ask for him. You may not get it then and there depending on the Tat. I wanted a Gargoyle, gave him some pics and some ideas. Said he would call me, few weeks later, had a design turned out sweet.
Wow.....looks like a nice shop with some nice work....thanks

I'm not a fan of White Lotus. I've seen them do some decent stuff, but I've also seen some pretty crappy work come out of there.
+1 for Dark Millennia, its over on the northwest corner of Broadway and Quincy (on Broadway a couple miles south of 285). My buddy Van owns the place and does some awesome work, in fact he was invited down to Vegas to work with Mario Barth last year. I'm friends with a few artists and he's the only one I let near me with a tattoo gun. I would HIGHLY recommend going and talking to him, he's usually in the shop from around noon to 5ish Tuesday/Wednesday/Friday unless an appointment runs late. He does have a waiting period though, I got some work done around Xmas last year and he mentioned he was booking 3 months out, but that could have increased or decreased since then.
I don't much like the artists that work for him though. They aren't bad, but ask for Van, well worth the wait.
I can PM you the number if you'd like.
Ahhh, might catch a little break for the work since we are all friends here yeah?

Damn! I may have to hit him up on my next ink! Thanks. SA
