The Last Minute.....Saturday JULY 11th

Fadia hit me up when I was up in the mountains (Asheville) visiting a dying friend on his last days on earth. She asked me if City of Ink could host a party over at VICE (the old Royal) I was feeling REALLY down seeing my friend in so much pain and just waiting for peace in death...so it was perfect timing..I called up Tuki and asked him was he down with hosting a party there and he was down..so Fadia gave us saturday July 11...I have had A LOT of my mind lately...losing close friends...seeing my hometown struggle because there are no jobs...working on the new VIP private rooms at COI...it's been a crazy few months...but I'm here and I'm thankful for life....I'm not always the most social person, but it's always cool to be surrounded by your love ones and old friends...but I only like to party when I deserve it...and personally I don't think I deserve it until I have reach all my goals (which are finishing the VIP tattoo rooms, finding me a loft so I can paint and draw in private, and a BIG house for my family) so I decided to use the money from the party to buy Corey, Sophie, and Chris new tattoo chairs...I do miss that old Royal vibe, seeing Grip, Protron, Hollyweerd, Sean Falyon, Muffy, Fadia, and others....so lets make this shit a family reunion! Business is doing AMAZING at the shop and I'm blessed but LIFE has been very stressful for me...but this party will help out...so I how to see everyone...I have missed yall!

The best laid plans of mice and men....

Many many many months ago. On the first page of my profile in Second Life, I put a line there that said, "My private life is just that, PRIVATE. If I wanted all of SL to know what I was doing, I would write a god dammed blog."

Life it seems has a sense of humor.

I would like to welcome each and every one of you to v3 Tattoo's blog.

I know right? Life truly is a circle and "never say never" has new meaning to me.



So all that said. I would like to take a moment to welcome each and everyone of you to a central location where you can see the latest releases I have. What I am working on. As well as ask questions and generally get to know me.

I believe tattoos even in Second Life, should have some meaning. They should stand for something. In a world that you can change a tattoo literately as easily as you can change a shirt, that has become something I think lots of people have forgotten. I want to change that. One customer at a time.

New Releases and some Old stuff

This tattoo, is my newest. I took some Arabic Calligraphy that stands for peace and love and made a simple and striking looking tattoo. I really like this location as it allows you to wear just about any kind of clothing and the tattoo still be able to be seen. Its quite striking and guaranteed to start a conversation.


The Starstuck tattoo is quickly becoming a favorite. So much so in fact, that a special LIMITED EDITION of the tattoo has been released in conjunction with Dahlinks Jewelery. Watch for pics of it as well as more info on it here at a later date.

This tattoo has always been one of my favorites. It probably will always be so. "Rose Wrap" is the very first tattoo I made to put up for sale. I think it is wonderful looking as do many others. It is by far my greatest selling tattoo.


"Celtic Crusader" is a tattoo I have grown to really like. The sharp contrasts of Celtic tattooing and designs really worked well. I am quite proud of this one.
