Miami Ink
Has anyone seen this show? I don't have any tattoos myself and can't imagine I ever will, but this show really fascinates me. The 'tattoo artists,' or whatever they call themselves, are really quite talented.

Re: Miami Ink
Agreed. Great show with some good personalities. I never really appreciated why people got tattoos before watching this show - never understood how personal they were (save for the 18 year old girls with dolphins on the ankles).
Did you see the tattoo they did of the buddha on that girl's back? Insane. |

Re: Miami Ink
I don't get this at all. It's just a bunch of unwashed, pretentious emo people who take themselves way too seriously. They all seem to go out of their way to seem deep or something like 16 year olds that never grew up. They don't realize that acting that way doesn't make them seem deep, just retarded.

Re: Miami Ink
I think that argument can pretty much be made for all 'artists'. I agree they're not exactly the most stable people, even trying too hard to be 'on the fringe', but some of their tattoos are absolutely sick. You can't really deny their talent.
By the way - who is that? I assume it's a hair/makeup artist, but he looks like a metrosexual version of Jerry O'Connell. |

These guys are very talented artists. They may be a little out there, but that type of group usually is.....regardless of how weird they are their work speaks for itself. |

this guy is the most amazing artist I've seen. [/ QUOTE ] I've been browsing his portfolio for the past hour or two. some amazing work, especially the biomechanical and the miniature stuff. While I appreciate the image, I'm still not convinced that any of it is worth deforming one's body for. Great to look at though. |
