I really think there is a lack of quality in San Antonio for tattoos. For example, here is an artist that is local to me and if you look at the art compared to what's been posted in here it's night and day.

Tattoo Studios in Fort Lauderdale- South Florida (http://www.tattoofortlauderdale.com/gallery.php?level=album&id=1 - broken link)

yeah, that wasn't exactly nice.. besides, we're in SAN ANTONIO. I'm not rich enough to go half way across the country every time I want to get some ink and I'm quite happy with all my work. Besides, I hate florida.

400 good posts and then post 401 made a turn for the worse. This thread is for people in SAN ANTONIO that like tattoos or are curious about tattoos. I doubt any other poster in here cares about how much better it is in florida or whether or not some person on the intraweb is turned on by them or not.. I made this thread, so I should know, and that was not my intention at all.

it is also very hard to take pictures of tattoos. When they're new, the color is great, but there is a lot of reflection from the flash. It's also hard to get a grasp on the whole 3D in 2D thing.
Hopefully people will continue to post pictures in here because I really like seeing them, hearing the stories that go along with them, and getting a feel for how the overall experience was, especially on unique (like the elbow) body parts.

DH said the elbow hurt really bad. Not unbearable but compared to other areas, it hurt. Had a friend get his elbow done the night before DH and apparently he was in lots of pain. Josh, the artist, takes better pictures of his stuff than we do apparently. You can check out his work here: PandaBinge.com!
The owner of the shop, Mario, does these amazing super small portraits on people's fingers (in between knuckles). It's crazy. You have to see it to believe it. His myspace: MySpace - Mario Sanchez Prick Tattoos - 39 - Male - SAN ANTONIO, Texas - myspace.com/pricktattoossatx

I didn't say the tats suck in this post, I said in SA. I looked for an artist as I previously mentioned before for a year and could not find one.

Your best bet is to wait until the next tat convention comes around for a good selection.

Don't take what I said personal, it wasn't meant to hurt anyones feelings in this thread.

You probably don't realize I still work in San Antonio but live in FL, and I was comparing the work from another tattoo studio here to show what good work looks like, perhaps some people that are curious about tattoos don't know any better. It's something that's going to be on your body the rest of your life then you want to make sure it's the best tattoo you can get.

You shouldn't be that sensative to to peoples opinions and thoughts when they differ from yours, after all this is a message board to discuss things.
