    There's not many 'reps' here banditmorris. We allow tattoo artists/piercers to post here only if they contribute to the community properly. Any that just come on to pimp their places are made stop it.

    Whos the best in Dublin for Portrait Tattoos?

    Does it make a difference if you get if done on Sat morning when they could have a hangover or on tue wed morning when they can see properly?

    To be honest there's no one who excels at portraits in Dublin (or Ireland) to my knowledge. Theres a handful that will make a good job of it alright, Snakebite, Wojt in Wildcat, JMD's in Waterford would all be worthy of consideration for sure. However, for a truly awesome portrait of a Kat Von D quality I would advise you to consider going abroad. Your question should really be "Who's the best for portratit tattoos?" as oppossed to "best in Dublin".
    As for time of the week, thats really just a judgement call on the day. If the artist stinks of booze then reschedule. Hope thats of some help.

    I heard earlier that Connected Ink (the one from below the clothes shop on Abbey Street) bought Zulu's old premises, so that studio is open again, with different people!

    Thought y'all might be interested.

    I got two new tattoos done recently in the parlour in Foxes Bow in Limerick city by a guy called Steve. I already had three from another parlour. Really really professional guy, he spent ages looking at my original designs and shaded them and offered advice on colour and size, very reasonably priced and its been two weeks they look like ive had them for years they healed so well (no scabbing). Im definately dealing with him again for my next one.

    Kevin Kileen in Wexford is a SERIOUS tat artist. He does all the main bikers in Irealand, Europe and they even come from the US to get him to work on them. He does really high class custom work. Go to the above artists for the usual wizards and butterflys

    o.0

    you for real?
    Don't come on here dismissing other tattoo artists especially when there is serious talent around these days. Far superior talent.

    I'm sick to death of 1 post wonders coming on here trying to pimp below par tattooists. Do some research there buddy, check the competition. I am by no means an expert but I know quality when I see it.

    "Go to the above artists for the usual wizards and butterflys"

    >.<

    I will happily stick to other artists yeah, and I will do my hardest to make sure other's on this site do too as well.

    haven't seen of heard good things about the place. be wary and check out photos of actual work they have done. if i was you i would look at making a trip down to limerick (allstar ink, danny bullmans)or even up to dublin for peace of mind.

    I got a tattoo there a few years ago and I believe I had my pants pulled down over the price and the quality
    Just wanna see if anyone had any other experiences there, Good or bad...
