ROSS The Tattooer

A rare Pokémon. That’s literally how I explained to my client why I was losing my mind with excitement over this one — despite the fact we decided on it last minute. Classic.
After 10+ years of doing this, finding something you’ve never done before feels exactly like that — stumbling across a shiny in the wild.
That’s what makes it so fulfilling. Not just the result, but the fact that it pushed me somewhere new.
So if you want something truly cool — think outside the box. Come with the weird idea. Come with the “I don’t even know if this is possible” idea. Because that’s where the good stuff lives, and a real collaboration like this will never disappoint.

Mostly healed sleeve, took around 6 sessions to complete.
There’s one thing people ask me all the time: how long does a sleeve take, can it be done in two days or something like that.

Honestly, I work pretty fast, but when it comes to detailed work I just don’t see how it’s possible to go that fast and finish it in half the time without killing the quality.

It also depends a lot on the actual size of the arm, so if you’re a gym fan, that’s definitely not the right question to ask.

I think I actually love tattooing dogs, huh? 🤔

Testing and mixing techniques every time , I guess
It’s interesting how, with experience, you start understanding every small detail of each piece of equipment — from the needle to the machine 🤔

, was really fun working on it 💪🏻

Love doing these horror things 😬
