My husband and I have been getting ink from Big James for years and I would recommend him to anyone. He is very professional and an awesome artist. He has great ideas to make your ink unique. I trusted him with tattooing 2 of my children (ages 19 & 17) and he did an excellent job. Visit In the Flesh for all your tattoo needs and you won't be disappointed!

Got a tattoo there a few years back -- v. large, cost $20 for an original sketch as we couldn't find a flash sheet I liked. $200 for the actual tattoo (a falcon). The process took about three hours, and I was sitting on a bench the whole time, which was a bit uncomfortable -- but I certainly can't argue with the results. The tattoo looks phenomenal and I'd love to get another one there sometime.
