Hello March

Just a few things to show, I'm gonna get some photos off of Andy to put up soon as well.

Farrell

We managed to add onto NeeNee's leg piece last month with a sweet lotus and anothing koi. Tough guy sat for 5 hours on this one

Re-drew a bit of flash for Valentines day and just added my own twist to it

Put this on my brother last week, my first hot air balloon I've done, would be fun to do more uncommon/weird designs

Mark decided to get a rose right on top of his elbow, not too much to do now to finish off his sleeve

Finished Paul's koi half sleeve and added a little bit of purple to high light the waves

Teagan got this Gypsy head for her mum, just used sepia tones and a deep red, really like the finished result with the limited colours

Stacey started this over a year ago so it was good to finally finish it! Hopefully we'll put up a healed photo sometime, as the flesh colour always looks really pink when it's fresh

Stuck for ideas this Christmas? Why not buy those special people in your life an Accomplice Tattoo gift voucher?! Or if you're after a tattoo yourself then start dropping some (massive) hints to friends and family! Over the Christmas period we will be open up to and including Thursday 22nd, and then we will reopen on 28/29/30, closed again for the New Year and back to normal from the 3rd.

Joe

This is the start of a butterfly, rose and wave sleeve I've got on the go. Going to end up really bold and colourful

This was a last minute design I drew up for Stacey, I love doing women's faces so this was a real treat

This was a great walk in to do, quickly drew up a pocket watch with the date and initials and finished it in black & grey

And I got to finish off Tom's owl when I got back from the States, the bottom half is fresh and the top is healed up

Thank-you to everyone who came to the birthday party last week, We had a great time and the Performers and DJ were awesome. Looking forward to next year now, and for all of you who missed out...

Lifeboat Tattoos

Until October 15 I'm going to be doing some small tattoos for RNLI, they cost £25 and £20 will go towards the charity. So come get a nautical tattoo and help a good cause at the same time!

We've been pretty busy recently working on a lot of big pieces. Here are a couple of photos of the smaller stuff we've been doing.

Joe

Had a nice traditional pocket watch to do yesterday.

Chris got this tattooed horse head for his birthday and we're going to be adding a couple more horses and some roses to make a whole side piece. The lucky guy's in for a lot of fun with this one.

September

We've been very busy recently, mostly with ongoing pieces and neither Eva nor myself have really taken photos of pieces in progress, just waiting to post the finished article. Here's some of the stuff we have taken photos of:

Joe

A little cover up on Anna, a nice quick fun one

Managed to do this in a few hours on Jason's arm. We're going to add some doves in a couple weeks and finish off the background.

Sail ship on Sean, Going to add red to the rose and then add some more bits to complete a full sleeve, I love doing this kind of work

Heart locket and Key on Wendy, this is a healed photo and I'm really happy with the way it's turned out

Work In Progress

This tattoo is gonna be awesome! I love the idea. Can't wait to see it shaded and colored!

Busy times

Been a bit busy recently and haven't had much time to update, but here's some of what we've been doing!

Start of a dragon half sleeve, a lot more work to do but it'll end up claret and blue as Mark's a big Hammers fan for some reason

A nice dagger on Chris, fun to keep it simple and traditional

Finally got a healed picture of Dean's half sleeve

A key for Kay, really enjoyed doing this kind a black and grey work

Rose Cover up

Black and grey Swallow, lots of great traditional stuff to do

Another japanese piece as well, looking forward to putting some bright colours in this one

State of the Art 2011

Such a great weekend, had great fun and met some great people. Just can't wait to work the next one now! Want to tell everyone to check out:
http://www.tattoohq.co.uk/ - Chris and Brenden did some stunning work over the weekend and were really friendly guys.

http://www.facebook.com/Diamondinkts - Faye was working next to us and helped us out loads. She started and Finished a cowgirl pin up over the convention that ended up looking sweet. I also got to do a little tattoo on Elsa the piercer there, great studio up in Sheffield.

http://www.twistedinktattoo.co.uk/ - We met Chardaine, Jamma Dodger and Jack at the pre show party and was great to talk tattoos to. They did some big work over the weekend and there's a lot of good stuff to look at on the website.

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=196217949072 - I tattooed Adam and his apprentice Kelly with a couple of small tattoos. Another great studio who were set up along our row. Adam did some really nice fun tattoos, and it was a great way to end by tattooing him.

Everyone we met were a pleasure to talk to, from other tattooists to customers to people just stopping by, was a really friendly atmosphere which carried on throughout the weekend.

Unfortunately we didn't take a picture of every tattoo we did but here's a couple

Jo's Pin up

Wu Tang Hand

We have more photos of the Facebook page so join up and have a look

Summer piercing deal!

So along with out Facebook fan page deal, our local friendly piercer Alice is offering a loyalty card scheme with piercings. It is usually get 4 and have the 5th for free, but until the end of August she is offering every third piercing for free! You can share the card with your friends, or keep it all to yourself, but pay for 2 piercings and get number 3 for nothing. Just phone up the shop to see when she's in and then come pick up your loyalty card.

Eva has also started her own blog so for just her work, have a look at http://evatattoo.blog.com/

And just a reminder, next weekend we will be working at the State of the Art convention in Derby, and unfortunately we will be shut on Friday and on the Saturday.

And here's what we've been up to in the shop;

This is the start of a half sleeve designed by Jo, there's going to be some clouds and heavenly gates added to it along with some doves.

Managed to finish Christian's Rose, and will get started on the next one soon. Only managed to get a camera phone picture, sorry for the quality.

And I got to start off the week with this drag queen pin up on Teagan. Going to put colour in it later on and we're getting started on another on the other foot on thursday.

Bank Holiday BBQ!

A bit short notice but I've been too busy to post this sooner, but on the 25th April we'll be having a BBQ at the back of the shop with everyone welcome. If you're in the area and want some burgers and what not then come on by, it's all free and we only ask you donate a little money which will go straight to www.barnados.org.uk.

Work wise, there's been a lot of good stuff in!

Hail Mary

Had a couple of Virgin Marys to tattoo last week, one designed by myself and one designed by Jo. Really enjoyed doing both and looking forward to finishing off the gangster version.

Summer time's coming!

All this sunshine is great! Also got to do some work on Chris, finished off a matching girl sugar skull on his other shoulder and managed to get a picture of the original one healed.

Also got started on this cover up, the original design was a bit of flash I'd drawn up and just changed a bit to help cover up the dragon, really pleased with the first sitting and can't wait to put the back ground and colour in
