So the other day we posted our first Cosplay Girl; well, now we would like to post our first Tattoo of the Month. We will be posting a new Tattoo of the Month on the 10th of every month. So let’s find out what our first Tattoo is …………………..

1.What is your name?
Will Robinson, feel free to insert a “Lost in Space” joke if you like. I was cursed at birth, I think.

2. How old are you and where do you live?
I was born in Camden,TN, but I currently live in Holladay, TN. It’s a small town in Southern Benton County.

3. Do you read comics, and if so what do you like to read?
I do not really read many, although I do have a few. I mostly just buy some here and there and put them up for safe keeping.

4. Ok, do you have any favorite artist or writers?
I don’t have any favorites. I’m not really an avid collector so to speak.

5. Alright, so what got you into tattoos ?
I have just always been intrigued by them. I love the aspect of them and the colors. Also, I am impressed by the skill it takes to apply a tattoo.

6. What is your comic book tattoo?
I have 2 so far, I can’t really say one is my favorite.I have a Spider-Man on my right calf, and a Captain America on my left shoulder.

7. What made you want to get that as your tattoo?
The Spider-Man was more for my daughter than for me, she loves him. As for the Cap, well I have always been a fan of that comic. I even loved the movie from the 90’s, even if it was bad.

 

8. How long did it take?
Spidey took about 4 hours and Captain America took about 5 1/2 hours.

9. Where did you get it done ?
All of my tattoos are done at Budo Tattoo in Jackson,TN. The artist who did them is Matt Brown, award-winning artist and shop owner.

10. Have you met any of the artists or writers whose work your tattoos are based on?
Unfortunately, I have not met any artists yet.

11. Do people know about your comic book tattoo ?
Yeah, most think I am crazy for getting comic book characters as tattoos, but I think they are the most original tats you can get.

12. What is the funniest thing that has happened to you when people see it?
Most are impressed at the detail of it. They always want to know if it hurt or how much I paid for it,you know silly things like that.

13. Are you hoping to get more comic book ink ?
Yes, I am hoping to add an Iron-Man to go with the Captain soon, as well as Hulk, Thor, Wasp, Giantman to round out a sleeve. I would also like to add some of the villians to accent the Spider-Man, like Veon, Carnage, Green Goblin, and maybe Doc Oc.

14. What do you like to do when you’re not getting tattoos? Where do you work and what kind of music you like; anything you want to tell us ?
I work at Carharrt Inc.in Camden, TN. When not working I just hang around the house and watch movies or play games with the kid, or spend time with my beautiful wife, Amber. Music is really my bag, I listen to an eclectic variety from old rock to horror punk like Mister Monster and Blitzkid. I also listen to some rap like Big B,Boondox,and Twiztid. I also play some of those silly MySpace apps, like Mobsters and Mafia Wars.

 

15. Great; do you have a website or a MySpace so people can contact you? My MySpace is www.myspace.com/williamrobinson31. Feel free to add me if you want.

Thank you one more time Will.
