Question Lookin to get ink done

Whats up, I was wondering if any of you guys know of a good Tattoo Studio around here that can hook me up. Im looking for some one who can do top quality work becuase im getting my first tat on my arm thats very detailed and the begining of my half sleave and i'd like to stick with the same artist to complete my sleave. I got a tat on my ankle done at Red Dragon and its good work it just way to expensive to go back there. So if any one can point me in the right direction where i can get some quality work and not spend my life savings it would be much apreciated.

Thanks,

Jonny.

Go to the nearest Harley Davidson shop, and ask around. Seriously.

I would look around at other peoples art.I went to Capital tattoo to get my tribal on my arm. But it all depends on what you want.Def. take the time to look around at peoples work first. What do you want to get on ur arm?

I wanna get this to start my my sleave in black and greyscale. Im not sure if i want it solid or shaded since its gonna be a focal point on the sleave i may want it to be solid to stand out from the tribal background im going to eventually get. Ill ask the artist for his professional opinion.
