^^^ totally agree

on the other had i like the idea for the tattoo but not where your getting it. you are going to end paying a fortune to get something done permanently on your body by a mediocre artist who are pretty overrated and the only reason many ppl think they are good is because they got there own tv show. I used to have a list somewhere that had the top 100 tattoo artists in the united states and none of the people on Miami Ink or LA Ink arent even on the list when you will spend half as much money for something that will look much nicer in the end. try looking on http://www.bmezine.com/ just some of the pics on there are nsf but you have to click there to see them and i think that bme also had the list of the top 100 tattoo artists in the us on it from what i remember. i personally dont think it is worth the money you will pay to even get it done on tv unless it was the best artists in the world. but then to each his/her own

o yea if you think this is a rant about tattoo's its not i do have some of my own.

lastly is i love the idea of the tattoo and wanna see what it looks like drawn up

I think it's cool Raul. If you do end up getting it done, you better let us know to watch for the show!!!!! :yes:

I would be very picky about what artist does your work. If I were in the market for a high-dollar tattoo (which translates to a high quality one from my experience) I would go for Capobianco, Booth, Bob Tyrell.. If you're comfortable with the artists' work on the show, and know who's doing your tattoo, and that's your choice, then that is fine. But if they're charging a huge price just to be on the show, IMO I would pass on it and spend the money on a world renowned artist who does not need to be on tv. (if you can get an appointment!) I know that Kat admitted on Miami Ink to only really being great at portraits, and that she liked to shy away from other work.. not sure how she is now really. I know that Hannah Aitchison on the show, is the sister of the phenomenal tattoo god Guy Aitchison, and she's pretty damn talkented from what I could see, though if I had the $$ I would get an appointment with her brother.. the man is ridiculous!

I am meeting with them on Tuesday and if the price is outrageous I will probably pass. We shall see;)

If you are on TV don't forget to wear a West Coast Jungle Tshirt!

sooooo what happened? just so you know... orchids do not always translate very well as tattoos... then tend to look a bit... well ... to put it gently in this family friendly forum... like woman's privates.
