World's largest-selling tattoo magazine

TATTOO MAGAZINE

This magazine has it all for the avid fan of skin art and so much more. I have been reading Tattoo Magazine for over 5 years now and I have never been disappointed with its in-depth and interesting articles as well as its high quality pictures of skin art. But the best part is, it isn't just focused on people's tattoos... It contains articles about bands (and their tattoos), advice from the experts about skin care after getting a tattoo, places of business for skin art and piercings, clothing lines, motorcycle companies, products for the tattooed customers and the tattooing customers, and its always changing information from issue to issue.

An example of this magazine's unique style, is in the August 2006 issue which covers an interview with a couple who not only have an insatiable love for tattoos but a love for wine as well. They use their tattooing skills to create elaborate bottle labels for the wines that they ferment and sell themselves. One interviewed winery founder says "What we want to do is create a full line of tattoo art products in order to create new kinds of work and a new source of income for tattoo artists around the world." And what better way to get their product known than in a tattoo magazine, and a largely known one at that.

A few other great aspects of this magazine is its sharing of events such as tattoo festivals where friends and strangers that share a passion for the arts can come together all around the country and share their skin with each other and when awards for their body art. This magazine also displays many, many pictures of other people's tattoos which allow the reader to get ideas of their own and perhaps make something beautiful themselves or have someone make for them. Tattoo Magazine covers articles about select artists around the country allowing them to be known and gain more potential customers with displays of their work.

I highly recommend this magazine for you lovers of skin art!!!

This may be a million years late but: Thanks for your kind words on this magazine. There were a lot of tattoo mags out there but IMO this and a select few others have the most class and recognition.
*Also I should selfishly add that I thank you for getting my issue on the first page of google results for "tattoo magazine cover 2006". :)
