I wanna get a tattoo.
Two actually. When I was looking after the aunt and uncle's place a few weeks ago I watched a shitload of Miami Ink. Which was pretty much what got me thinking about tattoos again. Problem is, I got so into Miami Ink, that I think I only want to get them done if I could get Chris Garver or Darren Brass, two of the tattoo artists on the show, to do them. Garver's work is just stunning, and Darren's history of grafitti art makes him awesome with more stylised work. I'd never be able to get them done by those guys though, aside from actually getting to the US in the first place, I have no interesting story to go along with getting the tat. And considering they only really tattoo stuff that goes on the show these days, you need a damn good story to get on the show. Most of which seem to be memorial tattoos. Not that there's anything wrong with getting a tattoo to remember someone close to you, but it just seems like the best way to get work by anyone at Miami Ink is to have someone die. :S
But I still want to get these tats, the more I think about them the more I want them. >_
