I cannot wait to visit again. Read Less

Had my sleeve started by jack 5hr sitting it was a breeze. I gave jack a very brief description of what i wanted and it was very brief, he came up with a design that has blown my mind. I cant express just how talented this guy is and it was a honour for me to have him work on my arm. Highly recomended and i will not go anywhere else for my future tatts. Cheers jack for a young man you are already a legend. Read Less
