grab bag charity event!
Time for our annual Grab Bag Charity event! This year we are donating everything we make to the Connecticut Children's Hospital!
THE RULES:
$25 to play
Cash preferred
... No changes to designs. They are tattooed as-is.
Begins sometime mid-morning, probably 9 or 10, and will continue until there is no one left to get tattooed of we drop dead from exhaustion.
Reach in the grab bag and pull out your tattoo design from one of the 100+ designs we have conjured up via tattoo wizardry! The sheet shown is only one of FOUR design sheets we painted. If you absolutely can't live with it, you can hold on to it and draw again, but you cannot go back to the first one you drew, so you'd better make sure you want to trade it in. If you don't want to second one, you can simply forfeit your money to the charity, but you can play as many times as you want!
All designs will be posted on the wall and ones that have already been tattooed will be crossed off so you know what's still in the bag.
There will be food and beverages served, but only those that participate in the grab bag can eat and drink. If you simply want to make an outright donation to the cause, that's fine too. It just means you're too big of a sissy to play with the big boys.
If you can't make it down for the event, you can still do the grab bag for the next few weeks afterwards, but we recommend getting in EARLY, because the later you play, the less...appealing the tattoos become.
One third of the designs will be good classic tattoo images, such as flowers, small japanese tattoos, stars, etc. Another third are pretty weird, but still not bad. The last third are downright vulgar. Genitalia, breasts, and naughty language abound. Get in early, because as this thing progresses, people are gonna keep getting the good ones and passing on the bad ones. Eventually the bag will be primarily dirty tattoos, so your odds get worse and worse.
This promises to be a blast! Last year was fantastic! We did 34 tattoos in the first day and ended up raising $1500 for charity! This year we'd like to top that if possible. Tell your friends and family, and definitely share this event on your page if you can.
We will post some of the designs online soon so you can see what you're up against. The event photo is only one of the sheets we are doing.
Hope to see you on the 27th!

halloween tattoos and updated web site
Also, we are doing $25 (plus tax) Halloween tattoos from now until mid November. The $25 dollar tattoos are on the shop's home page. The $25 price tag ONLY applies to these tattoos, and all other tattoos are priced normally. So don't ask to get another tattoo for $25 because it's not gonna happen.
We've got time this weekend if you're interested. Hit us up at 860.828.8880

pat wants japanese stuff!
I want to do some large traditional japanese stuff. If you come in for some large traditional japanese stuff, i will book you a FULL DAY of tattoo work for $350, and i will work on you until either you or i tap out. My usual rate is $100 an hour, so even if you only get five or six hours of tattoo work out of me youre still getting a good deal.
a consult is required to lay out the design before we begin tattoo work. this will not be an "i want it now" project, this will be a commitment on both our parts. a $40 deposit/drawing fee will be required the day of your consult and will come off your final session.
ribs, backpieces, 1/2 or full sleeves, legs, wherever you want.
coverups, reworks, and shit i have to 'work around' need not apply. i want clean skin. also, im talking traditional japanese here, not some busted new school crap. no koi with eyelashes, no western (fiery) phoenixes.
dragons, kirin, tigers, samurai, koi, flowers, whatever, im down. but i lay it out the RIGHT way. no fucking weirdo layouts or stupid color schemes.
this is your chance to get some dope japanese tattoo work for way less than normal prices. take advantage of it.
