Hey guys, it’s time for this week’s Tuesday update. As per usual, Gabe had a bunch of different projects going on at both shops. He celebrated his birthday this past weekend by taking a couple days out of town. Cody got to work on a walk-in wolf request. Colin wrapped up another painting and did a Raggedy Ann and Andy tattoo. You don’t see too many of those these days. Dan and Phil both got to do some cool roses. Phil also did a sick Orca tat. Casey got to do an awesome bear head. We had some craziness happen outside the shop on Saturday when someone mistook a sleeping homeless man for a dead homeless man and called the cops. We had fire trucks, ambulance and squad cars blocking our street for half an hour or so. None of that comes even close to what’s been going on in St. Louis though. To all our St. Louis friends, hope you guys are safe and staying as far away from that shit as possible.
Chirs Boyle will be covering shifts for Dan this week. Stop by the shop and he’ll lace you up with something rad.

Hey guys, thanks for checking out this week’s update. Our good friend Chris Tate from All Star in St. Louis was in town over the weekend covering shifts for Colin while he worked at Iron Age. Gabe spent most of his week doing sessions on various projects he has in the works at both shops. Lars got to do an Indian Girl straight from an acetate on Hunter’s dad. Dan covered up an old dolphin tattoo with some roses. Colin and Casey finished up some painting over the week. There were more than enough walk-ins to keep everyone busy.
For those of you that might have a tattoo you’re interested in getting but haven’t come in to talk to us yet, you should know that now would be a good time to do so. Once the Fall semester starts and all the students are back the tattooers will be booked up alot more than they are now. Come see us and will get you set up.

Hey guys, here’s your weekly dose of Iron Tiger stuff. Gabe had a cool mix of walk-ins and appointments at both shops. He and Cody both got to do some military tattoos throughout the week. Dan did a sick hammer head shark on one of his appointments. He also did the most awesome Mr. Peanut tattoo ever. Colin finished up a new painting and got to do a little lipstick banger on one of his walk-in customers. Morgan spent most of her Saturday afternoon working on a dominatrix Jessica Rabbit piece. Even though basically the entire city was busy moving over the weekend, everyone still managed to stay busy with a steady stream of walk-ins.
A tattoo that Lars did was recently featured in an article in Inked Magazine. Photo credit for the shoot goes to our counter guy Drew Piester. Check it out.

Hey guys, thanks again for checking out this week’s update. Gabe did most of his appointments at Tattoo You this week. Cody, Casey and Lars all finished up a bunch of paintings. Lars also had the rare opportunity to tattoo someone’s toenail bed. Colin did a cool dagger on our friend Ellen for her birthday. Our walk-in clientele kept pretty much everyone busy all week. Thanks again for being awesome guys.
Today is Cody’s birthday. If you see him out tonight buy him a shot.

Thanks for checking out this week’s update guys. Fresh back from he and Dan’s trip to AZ Gabe dove right back into his huge array of session pieces including wrapping up our friend Max’s leg sleeve. Dan did a huge panther head as a cover up on the back of a walk-in’s neck. Colin worked on a few different paintings and did another session on an aquatic sleeve he’s got in the works. Cody got in some more work on some polynesian tribal. Lars got to do a pretty rad owl on a walk-in on Saturday. Phil worked on quite a few projects including some nesting dolls and a soldiers cross. He also finished up a nerdy cat piece. Check out the last picture of the weird creep-ass that was hanging out at the shop late Saturday night.
Patience from Trader Bobs will be working today and tomorrow at the shop. Get at her for walk-ins.

Hey guys, thanks for checking out this weeks update. Gabe had some interesting requests this week including a creepy plague doctor tat. Cody got to do a portrait of someone’s mouth. Dan had a few different projects in the works including outlining a mandala/all-seeing eye shoulder piece. Colin tattooed an awesome cat on our friend Mark. Moe spent the weekend doing a guest spot out in Kansas City. Phil finished up a rad new flash sheet. Morgan celebrated a birthday on Thursday. We closed the shop Saturday so we could all go to Lars and Tiffany’s wedding. Despite the wedding being located in BFE the ceremony was perfect and everyone had a blast at the reception. Can’t stress enough how happy we are for you two.
As i’ve mentioned in earlier posts, Gabe and Dan will be at the Northern AZ Tattoo Fest in Prescott, AZ on July 4-6.

Well guys, we did it again. Our Friday the 13th was one of the busiest we’ve ever had! We had a line down the block by the time we opened and it stayed that way all day. Between Iron Tiger and our sister shop Tattoo You we did close to 400 tattoos and 240 piercings. As always, we thank everyone who came out for being so patient, excited and just generally awesome. You guys make this event worth while and we appreciate all of your for it. Also, thank you to Tyson from Streetdogs for keeping us and our customers fed and refreshed all day. Below you’ll find pics of various Friday the 13th tattoos plus some other projects that the guys worked on throughout the week.
Both Iron Tiger and Tattoo You will be closed on Saturday, June 21st to celebrate the wedding of one of our best and brightest Lars Van Zandt and Tiffany Turner. We love you both and wish you the best.
