Thanks for checking out this week’s update guys. Fresh back from he and Dan’s trip to AZ Gabe dove right back into his huge array of session pieces including wrapping up our friend Max’s leg sleeve. Dan did a huge panther head as a cover up on the back of a walk-in’s neck. Colin worked on a few different paintings and did another session on an aquatic sleeve he’s got in the works. Cody got in some more work on some polynesian tribal. Lars got to do a pretty rad owl on a walk-in on Saturday. Phil worked on quite a few projects including some nesting dolls and a soldiers cross. He also finished up a nerdy cat piece. Check out the last picture of the weird creep-ass that was hanging out at the shop late Saturday night.
Patience from Trader Bobs will be working today and tomorrow at the shop. Get at her for walk-ins.

Hey guys, thanks for checking out this weeks update. Gabe had some interesting requests this week including a creepy plague doctor tat. Cody got to do a portrait of someone’s mouth. Dan had a few different projects in the works including outlining a mandala/all-seeing eye shoulder piece. Colin tattooed an awesome cat on our friend Mark. Moe spent the weekend doing a guest spot out in Kansas City. Phil finished up a rad new flash sheet. Morgan celebrated a birthday on Thursday. We closed the shop Saturday so we could all go to Lars and Tiffany’s wedding. Despite the wedding being located in BFE the ceremony was perfect and everyone had a blast at the reception. Can’t stress enough how happy we are for you two.
As i’ve mentioned in earlier posts, Gabe and Dan will be at the Northern AZ Tattoo Fest in Prescott, AZ on July 4-6.

Well guys, we did it again. Our Friday the 13th was one of the busiest we’ve ever had! We had a line down the block by the time we opened and it stayed that way all day. Between Iron Tiger and our sister shop Tattoo You we did close to 400 tattoos and 240 piercings. As always, we thank everyone who came out for being so patient, excited and just generally awesome. You guys make this event worth while and we appreciate all of your for it. Also, thank you to Tyson from Streetdogs for keeping us and our customers fed and refreshed all day. Below you’ll find pics of various Friday the 13th tattoos plus some other projects that the guys worked on throughout the week.
Both Iron Tiger and Tattoo You will be closed on Saturday, June 21st to celebrate the wedding of one of our best and brightest Lars Van Zandt and Tiffany Turner. We love you both and wish you the best.

Welcome back for this weeks post guys. Gabe was busy with large appointments all week as usual. He managed to do another session on Colin’s back piece. Colin and Cody covered shifts at Iron Age over the weekend. Dan covered shifts at The Bearded Lady Tattoo Parlour out in Illinois but before he left he got to do a rad ASL tattoo. Lars put the finishing touches on the Futurama leg sleeve he’s been working on. Phil wrapped up a new flash sheet. A lot of everyone’s week was spend preparing for this coming Friday. Speaking of which…
The time has come once again for our FRIDAY THE 13TH special! This time around, hopefully we won’t turn anyone away because we have help! Our friends at the newly remodeled TATTOO YOU will be helping us out! we promise the same great quality, awesome artists, and same designs at both locations! if you are new to it this is how it works… To everyone else you know the deal!
There will be a Set selection of tattoo flash designs HAND PAINTED/DRAWN by the artists that work at the shop. This is special because the designs will be used only for this event and then lost forever! The designs are small and CANNOT/Will Not be changed, or made larger.
The tattoos are $13 and you MUST tip $7 so $20 is the total! You can certainly tip the artist more if you would like (and I’m sure they would appreciate it) You will NOT pay less than $20. CASH ONLY.
The Tattoos will be done on a first come first serve basis. So get there as early as you can. We open at Noon!
And to top it all off we will be doing $13 piercings all day and the jewelry is on us! (No genitals or dermals. $7 mandatory tip also applies)

Hey guys, here’s your weekly dose of shop stuff. Our good friend Jon Osiris was in town hanging out for a week after months of travel abroad. Gabe did alot of session work on various pieces he’s had in the works. He finished working on a huge owl thigh piece on our friend Jason. When Cody wasn’t busy doing crazy metal head tats he found some time to start work on some new paintings (pics soon). Dan finished up the Snakes of Loki tattoo he’s been working on and did another session on a sick buffalo head piece. Phil got to start out his Saturday afternoon by doing a walk-in of Slave 1. Lars did another session on a huge dead tree back piece. Our summers has been amazing so far guys. Come see us, bring your ideas and lets have some fun. You pick it, we stick it. Also, can anyone tell me what next Friday is…
For those of you who may have missed the last couple posts, Gabe and Dan will be at the Northern AZ Tattoo Fest in Prescott, AZ on July 4-6.

Welcome back guys, here’s whats been going on at the tat shack this past week. Gabe had his usual array of appointments at both shops. Cody finished up a new painting and did some pretty sick black and gray roses. Dan did a cool ornate sparrow on his sister-in-law. Lars worked on a bunch of Futurama tattoos. Moe finished a clipper ship half sleeve. Even with it being Memorial Day weekend everyone still did a solid amount of walk-ins. Tony was in town for a visit all week and when he wasn’t getting his back piece worked on by Gabe or getting a derpy tiger from Dan he managed to take some cool pics around the shop. Check ’em out.
Like I mentioned last week, Gabe and Dan will be at the Northern AZ Tattoo Fest in Prescott, AZ on July 4-6. Be sure to check them out if you’re in the area.
