    I’ve gotten 2 tattoos from Eddy so far (it’s not letting me upload pics- but I assure you they’re immaculate). He’s definitely my forever tattoo artist. First one was some text in John Waters’s handwriting with his autograph (which is crazy detailed and absolutely perfect), and yesterday I got a portrait of my dog done <3 Both had teeny tiny lines and itty bitty details and they’re done so perfectly I can’t even describe. I’m absolutely blown away by Eddy’s line work. My dog’s portrait looks EXACTLY like him, and everyone who knows my dog, who’s seen the tattoo says the same thing. He got his chonky little neck, and his nobby little elbows, and all his markings (he’s calico, so that’s tough!) absolutely perfect. His eyes are so teeny tiny in the tattoo, but somehow the eyes even look exactly like his. Absolutely blown away. 10 out of 5 stars all day. LOVE this guy, and I have no doubt he hires equally talented artists. Cannot recommend Rocket Tattoo (and especially Eddy) enough 👌👌👌
