I’m Russty, a tattoo artist based in Leicester. I focus on traditional tattooing – bold lines, solid colour and designs that’ll still look good years from now. I like tattoos that look like tattoos – the proper kind that stand out and stay strong.

I’ve been tattooing for around six years now, learning from solid people and putting the hours in to keep getting better. Everything I do is drawn by hand – no filters, no gimmicks, just proper tattoos done with care. Whether you want something straight from my flash or a custom piece built from your idea, I’ll make sure it’s clean, balanced and built to last.

If you’re into American traditional, old-school designs or tattoos with a bit of grit and honesty, I reckon we’ll get on. Come by the studio and we’ll get something good started.
