Mexican Sugar Skull Rose

This custom colour piece was finished after a 3 hour session.   Only Micky Sharpz machines were used in the making of this tattoo (custom microdial + custom T-Dial)

Tribal Scorpion

This Scorpion Tribal piece took around 4 hours and still needs one more 1-2 hour session to pound the black in, especially around the elbow (i took it easy and said to the scorpio dude- next time brah! as he was starting to fade towards the 4 hour mark). Only used two machines for this one - a custom Paolini for the shading and a custom Biomech power liner to lay down the outline nice and smooth. Suluape Black Samoan Tribal ink is the only ink I use for tribal - goes in easily and has fast healing time.

My favourite machine for lining is the Micky Sharpz Microdials and for shading the two Tedted machines and the Micky Sharpz T-Dial are the best by far. The rotaries are strictly for the ladies.

A friend of mine in germany sent me this Micky Sharpz MicroDial for repairs and this is how it turned out- complete with manta ray skin coils and Aaron Cain hardware!

This National Jonesy Swing gate may be out of fashion and way heavy but i like it, specially rebuilt for pushing 13-14 mags THUMP THUMP

This Micky Sharpz MicroDial rebuild has been censored for younger viewing audiences ;) 

 

The vintage machines above cost a bit but now that I've Hot Rodded them they are worth every cent!
