Tagging along. I got a big piece started on my ribs a few years back and can't find a good place to do the shading etc. The guy took 4 hours and had a shaky&heavy hand wouldnt reccomend him. (dragonfx west ed) dumb idea going there.
I'm also looking for someone fast and someone who can fix his shaky outline, its not terrible, but the other tats I have had done are nothing like this one.

I've gotten a couple pieces done by Anastasia at Eye of the Lotus in Edmonton, I can pm you a pic when I get home (or text) if you'd like, I've had some of them for as long as 12 years, none are faded, but I keep them out of the sun as best as I can.

The lotus is where I got the tribal on my leg done, I believe it was anastasia as well that was 6 years ago and its all black, barely any fading i wear shorts everyday too. I just have a few tiny spot to touch up on that one. I can vouche for her, she is pretty quick and not very heavy in the hand. I should've had her do my ribs :P

Thanks for the input guys! I've got a few artists to check out for sure. I was looking at Anastasia's work actually... very nice.
I'm not going to lie though... I'm kinda dissapointed that nobody is posting pics! Come on people, let's see them!

I'm at work and I cant upload, but if you were looking at Anastasia's porfolio online, mines the toucan. I'll post a pic when I get home tonight, you can see the difference (theres no fading) and that tatoo is about 5 years old.

Shawn did my tattoo at Ink Machine in Edmonton. He works with Danny. I'm very happy with this artist and I wouldn't hesitate to go back. This tattoo is on it's second pregnancy now, and 7 years after getting it it looks as almost good as the day I got it. I take care of it with nothing but lotion when I remember to and sunscreen when I'm in the sun: 3 years ago on vacation:  Pregnant @ 28 weeks:

Did Anthony originally do your backpiece, or did someone else do it?
I owned a tattoo shop for several years. If Anthony is willing to touchup someone else's work, that is truly amazing. We would do coverups, but there is no way we would ever touch up someone else's work. I've reviewed Anthony's portfolio, and he is an exceptionally skilled artist. Maintaining your relationship with him could very well be worth the 9 hour drive. Other than that . . . I've been away from the industry for too long and am very out of the loop. I can't, and won't, make any recommendations.
