Shop Review: This shop is state of the art, with separate wet lab super
clean
environment and professionalism put before ego. Ray and Skrappy
also of Storybook ink have done a wonderful job in designing and
tattooing myself and my friends. There is no substitute for
exellence and cleanliness.
Artist Review--Fat Ray <FatRaysticker [at] aol.com>: Ray is so funny. He
kept my sister from crying one time and he
wasn't even tattooing on her. The bedside manner of the entire
shop is excellent The diversity of the five artists is unmatched
in Kitsap county.

Shop Review: A private shop on the west side of the Pike Place Market.
There is no flash on the walls, only custom tattoo art by Vyvyn (on
display). The decor is varied with a lovely and fun theme. It always
smells good. The cleanliness is impeccable, and offers complete privacy
for both consultation and tattoo session.
Artist Review--Vyvyn Lazonga <vyvyn [at] vyvyn.com>: Vyvyn is an amazing
person. She not only helped me to fully-realize the design I had been
meditating on, but practically psychically pulled certain elements of the
design from my being to create the perfect piece of art for me. She is
fun, friendly, cooperative, open-minded, and extremely sensitive to client
needs. She is a pioneering female tattoo artist, and has broad experience
in many different tattoo styles and environments (having more than 25 years
of experience and far more qualifications than I could possibly list here)
that have given her knowledge and foundation, and has allowed her to evolve
into the *extremely* talented and unique artist that she is today. I can't
recommend her highly enough. She is everything I was searching for in a
tattoo artist, and more.

Shop Review:
Artist Review--Vyvyn Lazonga: She was great, the shop was great, and the
tattoo is still wonderful after five years. This is definitely art, not
craft; she did the full design based on a few concepts I gave her. Her
shading on the flowers and action in the water were particularly nice, and
I get oohs and ahhs from folks who see it.

Shop Review: The shop was very clean, with a nice sized waiting room. All
staff were friendly and receptive to my needs. When I went back with a
problem, I was given great tips on how to fix the problem.
Artist Review--Clae: Clae was very gentle, this was my first tattoo, he
started off lightly and blurred into heavy lines later, when i became more
comfy. there was no shortage of conversation and the whole thing was
lighthearted. he's a very skilled tattooist and a very nice guy.

Shop Review: The shop is clean, bright and comfortable. There are two
chairs. If you want flash, they have flash. Bring in your own design or
concept and they will make a tattoo of it. They also have a piercer on
staff. The actual location of the shop is in the Asian district on S 38th,
in Tacoma.
Artist Review--Scott Schafer: Scott has the patience to do good tribal
work, like mine. But his skill shines with his large Asian work. He won
four awards at Reno. A friend has a coy fish that goes from her shoulder to
her thigh. Beautiful work to match the samurai half sleeves Scott did for
her before.
