After Stoner's post I bet I wasn't the only one who googled 5449000000996 to see if it actually was a Belgian coca cola product (It is!)
I bet you were the ONLY person to do that!

I've got loads of ink, all black. I also have a shaved head and it means I get viewed as a Neanderthal which I enjoy. It's a perverse pleasure.
slightly seperate question, but how do people become tatoo artists?
do you start as a tatoo fan and then get into doing them on people or start as an artist who does pictures then move on to doing them on peoples
bodies?
are there any tatooists out there who do them but have none on there bodies?
always amazes me how people get straight lines on ( moveable ) skin??
do they practice on pigs' cadavers like Rocky?
blimey - I was thinking dead piggies, not live ones.
I can see those PETAmentalists going apeshit about that!
I don't profess to know many tattoo artists, but the ones I have met have all had a talent in art and an interest in tattoos before combining the two to become tattooists. A lot of the websites of the good studios(eg 9 Boycess Street and Magnum Opus in Brighton) feature not only tattoos, but sketches, paintings and sculptures of the tattooists as well.
When doing a tattoo, the artist pulls/stretches the skin to make it taut. That's how they get straight/even lines.
I think tattoo artists and their line of work is very underrated and looked down on by society in general. The ones I've met are very interesting and talented people.
I just googled the bloke who did my wife's tattoos. http://www.tribalize.co.uk/newalbum/index11.html
He was a friend of a friend and is obviously very talented. Some people do ask for shit tattoos though eh?
