Resident artist, Black Ink Rebellion Studio, Newquay
No-nonsense premium custom tattoos with horror at the heart and comic-panel drama in the bones.
My passion lives in VHS-era horror cover art and dark flash culture, while I still enjoy creating a wide range of custom tattoo work in styles to suit all tastes.
About the work
My strongest passion is the 80s and 90s horror universe, from VHS covers and cult creature features to comic gore, occult symbolism and grimy flash-sheet energy.
That passion drives the mood and identity of the site, but it is only part of the story. Non-horror custom work is very much part of my portfolio too.
Studio approach
I work by appointment only, with collaborative design, honest placement advice, and clear aftercare for first-timers and collectors alike.
I bring VHS sleeve grime, creature-feature drama and dark flash-sheet instincts into skin-first design.
Not every piece has to be horror. My portfolio also covers blackwork, fine line and broader custom ideas.
I keep things straightforward with thoughtful briefs, honest feedback and proper aftercare, without the usual faff.

More than one lane
If you’re after something outside the horror lane, I also keep a separate gallery for other custom work, so the portfolio reflects the full range properly.
