| I think you should get something a little more original than a tribal. Don't wastes that Jed Von Horrors talent on something as lame as a tribal piece. The Legend Of Zelda half-sleeve blows my mind with awesomeness. The mighty mouse also bursts with awesomeness |

| Personally I'm not a big fan of tribal but I guess that wasn't your question. I like Jed's work but I agree with the above comment about wasting Jed's artistic talent on tribal. He may not even be too up to doing it but if that's what you really want and those are the artists you're choosing from I'd go with Jed, if he's willing. Or find someone else who prefers doing that kind of work. I didn't spend too much time looking but I don't recall seeing tribal in either portfoilio. |

yeah jeds work looks amazing, (he has only 5 years i think and jeni has 11 1/2 but jeds work looks better i dont understand lol) jeni has done some tribal work if u look under her pictures, but ill try and see if jed is willing to do it. |

| IF you do get a tribal ask Jed to make it a little different, something unique. You'll thank me later when you realise every douche-bag under the sun has some shitty tribal work. |

QFT.
I am a douchebag under the sun, and I have some shitty tribal work.
I'm just glad I don't have to see it every day. |

I dunno, I'm not an artist. Ask Jed and see what he can do. Tribal is just so stock standard these days. |

a no brainer here, jed has a lot more talent. I wasn't impressed at all with jenni, but Jed's work was seriously top notch! And its not that surprising that someone with more years of experience is worse, because some people have it an some people don't. But regardless scratchers can still find people who will be willing to get less then quality work tattoo'd on them. Just because there in a shop doesn't mean there good. I know of 2 shops I'd actually go to where I live out of the whole state! an theirs like 50 shops! I had someone tattoo me who'd been doing it for 15 years, an they weren't good at all. (I was 15 an wasn't about to wait till 18, bad idea) But anyway hope this helped, go by the actual work. good luck, post pictures
