Well I have been looking for an artist for my first tattoo for some time. I have decided on a japanese piece that will cover my entire side (may as well go with the painful areas first.) I have eliminated 5 other artist after speaking to them and realizing that i get along very well with these two guys. So I was wondering which artist you would go to of the two artist.

both are out of the same shop but in different locations.
Josh out of the Mesa location and Chris Bailey out of Apache.

If anyone knows any artist in the phoenix area that i should consider looking at let me know who they are and i'll chech them out. Mike Roper would be awesome but he is a bitch to get a hold of. If anyone knows how i might get a hold of him let me know as well if you would.
-Any input is appreciated guys.

yes I did, thats how i got ropers name. I have tried a few times to find a way to get a hold of him and it's just proving a bit tough. It seems you have to know someone that has gotten work from him or know him personaly.
