What a stunning addition to this ongoing side-leg piece by Fernando! Fernando Gallardo ✶Ottawa tattoo artist

Swipe through to see it in a few different lighting setups.

Fresh tattoos can sometimes look “too dark,” but that contrast is intentional. As they heal, the blacks and darks soften and lighten, so it’s important to exaggerate that contrast while it’s fresh.

It took five years for Jay to find an artist he could trust with a full sleeve. He had this epic plan — all of his favourite anime characters, the ones that mattered most to him, on one arm. With a big tattoo like this you want to get it right. After one consult with Irina, he knew he’d found his artist.

This is the kind of project Irina lives for.

If you’ve got an anime piece you’ve been sitting on, come talk to us. We’re in Ottawa on Carling — link in our bio, or just send us a DM.

Before all the awards and accolades — before Ian had ever even heard of a tattoo shop or met a tattoo artist, because there was nothing like that where he lived — at 14 years old, he built his own tattoo machine

A fork. A Bic pen. A guitar string. A Walkman motor. He had to sharpen the needle on a stone by hand.
That was 1981

These photos are him at 17, still running the machine he built himself — one year before he ever got a chance to own a real professional machine

45 years later, he’s still tattooing strong. Follow for the next part of the story

This was 1981, and it’s a true part of Ian’s story — not a suggestion. Homemade machines aren’t safe, and nobody should tattoo outside of a professional, sterile studio. Please don’t try this at home.

Julia wanted her first tattoo for years — but the fear was never the needle. It was choosing wrong.

The thing that dissolved it wasn’t a technique, it was the right artist. Paired with Veronika, the design came together in the room, on her — and the second the drawing started, the spiral stopped.

Picking the right artist is what matters most at the end of the day. We make sure you get it right.

That tattoo you’ve been meaning to deal with for years? A good cover-up doesn’t have to be a black blob.

Yesterday morning this client walked in with the tattoo you see at the start. Something she’d been stuck with and tired of looking at. By this afternoon she walked out with a finished, badass cover-up. A brand new tattoo, feeling fresh and confident again.

One day. That’s it.

Ottawa, if you’re sitting on a tattoo you regret, this is your sign.

Family ❤️This dragon half-sleeve, created by on our team, represents this client’s family

It’s one of our favourite ways to capture the meaning of family without doing what everyone else does. No names, no dates. Just the feeling.

That’s where we start: you come in with the meaning. What you want your tattoo to say. From there, our job is to match you with the artist whose style you love, so they can sit with you, help you tell your story, and design something that gives you that feeling every time you catch it in the mirror.

There’s a character you’ve been thinking about for years. Maybe a few.

You grew up. They didn’t go anywhere. Getting one tattooed isn’t something you outgrow... it’s something you finally do properly.

Irina creates custom fan-art tattoos in Ottawa. She redraws your character, making it unique to you. These tattoos are designed to last a lifetime, never just a copied screenshot. Anime, comics, games — whatever you never let go of.

Been sitting on an idea? Bring it in, even if you can’t fully put it into words yet. That’s exactly what the consult is for.
