    Nice take! Colors don't show up great on my skin so black/grey is my go too. And the shading looks so sick. To me colors sometimes take away the expressions and depth of some art.

    I feel like La / socal specifically is like the mecca for bng work. All of the worlds best bng flock there because people in socal love that bng look. I agree with most of your picks on artist becuase of their styles being so unique. I think one thing all those artist you chose have in common is they are really good at working the negative space. None of the work looks boring and keeps the eye moving.

    Anyone else know Adan Sanchez? He's at a newer shop in Albuquerque called "Era". I think he even owns it. I've had a consult with him and plan to get an appointment this month. The only thing that scares me is his price. At $3500 per session (7-8 hrs), he's the most expensive I've come across.

    Could you please make a video about great American Traditional/Old School tattoos? There's a lot of people interested in them and getting them done, including myself. I have a Facebook group with 11K members just for that category. I think it would be well rounded if you could do a video of Old school tattoos for your viewers.

    @heatherbaker3903 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I won't name my artist, but I know he's known. Based on the portfolio of his work, I asked him to do my sleeve. He started with a scull to anchor the piece. I've seen so many of his sculls that I was very keen, but I'm very unhappy with the scull he did on me. I feel almost like it is sub-par compared to what I know he is capable of. Is there a way you would recommend me talking to him about it? I know he's very skilled in black and grey, but this scull is flat looking and almost all grey with no skin at all for high lights or light source.
