Horror art for my ink.

Well I have the itch again for some new ink. I am going to get started soon on complete sleeves of tattoos. I am getting a little tired of floaters and wearing shirts all the time so I figure I should just get completely covered.

I have some ideas of what I want ranging from Rockabilly, fantasy, occult and horror. I have a few artists in mind but would like some input from the masses of what artists you all like.

One of the best tattoo artists in the U.S., IMO, is Paul Booth. His work is some of the most evil shit you'll ever see. His shop (Last Rites) has a web site...check him out. I understand that he has one hell of a waiting list to get an appointment though. I have a couple of pieces that were designed by him, but I have yet been able to get one inked by him. I will make the necessary journey one of these days...one way or another.

Here's the link to his web site;

I don't know what kind of horror movies you liek a lot, but if I were to get a horror tatto I'd get the picture of Bruce Campbell (Ash) with a chainsaw.

Like this, but without the chick in the background:
