I came back from Basic, looking for someone ANYONE to perform a cover-up on a poorly done flower. I went to the most popular shops up and down Richmond, and every tattoo artist told me, the cover-up could not be done and that it was impossible, because of the shape, the color of the flower...etc etc all of the excuses in the world right. I would've respected the artists more if they would've just said, they weren't skilled enough to manipulate the shape + lines + color and cover it up. A friend then told me about a guy named Chris at Lucky Gypsy, so I went and he immediately reassured me that the cover-up was possible. So nice and so friendly. I was finally going to get this tattoo covered-up. When the time came for him to do the cover-up, his drawing was AMAZING and the execution. This is the most beautiful flower i've ever had tattooed on me. Chris did PHENOMENAL. This is a skilled person that KNOWS their craft. I was extremely relieved to finally be able to show-off my arm. When I tell you this man is so skilled and knowledgable at his craft, he noticed I had another cover-up from another artist, and normally people can't tell it's a cover-up. He knows his lines, colors, and the manipulation of shading to produce a newer tattoo. This man is gonna get all of my money!

I can't even describe how amazing my experience with Carmelo Gomez was. For more than three years, I thought about what I wanted (a memorial piece of my dog in the Day of the Dead style). After looking at Carmelo's work, I knew he was the perfect artist. I emailed pictures and a general idea of what I was thinking. When I arrived for my appointment, I was blown away with Carmelo's design. I couldn't be happier with the finished product - it's everything I had imagined and so much more. If you're looking for a super talented, incredibly detailed, and customer focused artist, I would highly recommend Carmelo.
The shop itself has a great vibe - full of artists who are clearly passionate about their craft and go above and beyond to make the experience the best one possible for each customer.

Matt G is the most talented artist with color. He will run with any idea you have and turn it into a masterpiece. There’s a reason he has a long wait. But in general, this is a great shop with a LOT of talent and everyone is friendly.

Isaac did an amazing job on my tattoo. I've had two small tattoos before and with both the lines weren't very crisp but he did a great job and was very friendly. The studio was very clean. Highly recommend 👌

I can’t give enough praise to this tattoo shop. I had a tattoo done by Christian Buckingham. I asked for a raven, something feminine. And told him to take any creative liberty he wanted. Let me tell you, not only did he give me an amazing unique design he me feel comfortable throughout the whole tattoo. The staff there is awesome. They are really professional and the relaxed atmosphere makes the experience so much better. Also shout out to the receptionist, they were very accommodating and answered any questions I have. I will always be a client. This was totally was worth my 2.5 hr trip. If you want amazing work with a staff to match? Definitely come here. You will not be disappointed.
