Scottish Tattoo Convention
Last weekend Killer Ink was on the road again trading at the 4th Scottish Tattoo Convention in Edinburgh.
The show had the same relaxed and friendly atmosphere as last year. So it was a great weekend again. It’s a pretty long drive up to the show and the Sat Nav always takes us through Scottish winding country roads on the way up to Edinburgh, but it’s a nice trip through some villages and the views are a nice change from Motorway after Motorway.
Aside from the great work being done, and other entertainment there was also the ‘Miss Scottish Pin Up’ pageant, the winner of which was Miss Edith.
There were some great pieces done over the weekend and the caliber of the working artists was again very high.
The awards were very competitive as ever and our congratulations to the winners:
Small Black and Grey: Dean by Josh Duffy, London
Realistic: Sylvia by Marcin, Inkdependent, Edinburgh
Large Colour: Sean by Alex Rattray, Red Hot & Blue, Edinburgh
Large Black n Grey: Erik by Gunnar Foley, Imperial, Stockholm
Ornamental: Sam by Bry, Idle Hands, Arbroath
Small Colour: Edytia by Marcin, Inkdependent, Edinburgh
Scottish: Joint win by Mark by Valerie Vargas, Frith Street, London
Marek by Agrypa, Inkdependent, Edinburgh

This weekend Killer Ink will be trading at 2 shows; The Frankfurt Tattoo Convention and the 4th Tattoo Extravaganza at Portsmouth. So come by and say hi! Please note owing to the adverse weather over the last few months the Tattoo Extravaganza has had to relocate to Havant Leisure Centre. We look forward to seeing you there!
