Horror tattoos

Slashers, clowns, ghouls and monsters. If the crew had a house style, this would be it.

“Be like Q, get big cool horror tattoos.”Tommy, on Facebook, under a reel of a horror back piece

Tommy Solace takes horror into realism, from a full Michael Myers back piece in black and grey to Pennywise and a burning gothic church in color. Sarah Jane Zow does horror icons in new school and neo-traditional color, with a whole wall of them in the portfolio. Karo Trzzy brings a darker, fine line take: plague doctors, horned beasts, coffins.

Planning one

  • Film still or cartoon? For a character that looks like a frame from the movie, book Tommy. For a punchy, stylized version, book Sarah Jane.
  • Stack the villains. Several characters can share a sleeve or a leg when they're planned as one design.
  • Small counts. Horror flash shows up on Walk-in Wednesdays in Kankakee.
