The work itself appears to be good.
I like his take on Japanese.

His Name is Tony at Chronic Ink in Toronto. All the artists there are very young but If you are into Jap. style they seem to put out some nice shit or at least from what I see. I'm into B&G myself but to each thier own. I live outside Ottawa and have been doing a bit of research. I dont like to bad mouth tattoo shops but the one in my hometown leaves me speachless everytime some pour sap gets something done and posted up on their face book page. I'm willing to drive all day if thats what it takes to find a good shop. Toronto is like 4 hour drive and NYC is about 7 hours drive.

Are you specifically looking for japanese style? I got tattooed by Joel Conroy http://www.joelconroy.ca/blog/?page_id=8 from your hometown of Ottawa (he's working out of 5 cents tattoo shop) and I would highly reccomend.

Animosity, looks like Conroy does some nice stuff but Jap. B&G is what I'm looking for. Jess Yen is one of my favorite artists but several year waiting list and the fact he's on the west coast makes it near impossible unless i luck in somewhere at a convention he is attending.

OICUR4692, I did notice Jess was at the NYC convention a little while back. Not sure if he takes walkins but maybe if i got in contact with him early enough I can maybe work out somehing for next years show. Who knows never hurts to try. Thanks for the tip on Cummings in Montreal he is only a few hours away. I fish there all the time.

Sleevem, did you end up getting any work done by Tony?

Regardless, did you ever get any indication on his hourly rate/how fast he works/how far he's booking ahead? Considering contacting him for a piece.

I'm thinking his lower arm looks a bit red. I'll bet the photo was taken right after finshing all that area and lightened up a lot later.
