Sam was simply amazing with his artistic ability with my tattoo!! It’s even better than I hoped for! Friends and family are all in awe of the beauty and colors in my tattoo. I highly recommend him and his shop. Great experience all around!

Literally all of my tattoos have been done here. Rick is incredible, professional, and so, so talented! The owner, Sam, is also just plain awesome. Definitely get your work done here.

Rick does awesome work with everything I have asked him to do. He will take my original idea and magnify it with an end result better than originally planned. His tattoos with colors are absolutely amazing, as well as his attention to detail.

I love this shop. I have gotten all of my tattoos here and they are absolutely amazing. Rick Welch is my artist and he is the coolest. I will forever recommend him.

I only have 3 tattoos and 2 peircings but I can say by far this was the smoothest transaction I've had! Rick did an amazing job on a dragon fly outline! He drew it to size and helped me decide the best positioning for my wrist! It was quick easy and relatively painless! I also bought a new hoop for my nose which they clamped in so I'd stop losing it and it's been in for over a year now! The prices were totally fair and I don't regret my decision to choose here! I will be back again I'm a few months for another!!

I cannot even begin to express how much i love this tattoo shop. It is incredibly clean - it smells clean from the moment you walk in the door - with artwork all around and a beautiful display case of jewelry to choose from should you decide to go the piercing route. Sam, Rick, and the other members of the shop make you feel welcome inmediately and are genuinely enthusiastic about what they do and making sure that your tattoo is perfect for you. All of the shop staff are extremely knowledgable and very courteous. Rick Welch ... read more

Rick has been my tattoo artist for more years than I can remember. He is always friendly, his room is just awesome (gotta love a fellow horror fan), and he does what he says he will do. I've never had an appointment canceled on me, the shop itself is clean, professionally managed, and everyone there now is always happy to talk to you about whatever your tattoo or piercing needs may be. If you want a fantastic tattoo, this is the place to go in Wilmington, just don't be surprised if you have to make an appointment! They are b... read more
