Setting the record straight about what we do here, at Triumph Tattoo:

Contrary to things we have heard, no, Triumph is not a flash only shop. Meaning we do much more than just flash.  Don’t get me wrong, we have loads of awesome images all over the shop, and to be honest, we often wish more people would pick them. Why?  Because we have a flash collection ranging in images from the past to the present and everything in between.  Traditional flash (Sailor Jerry for example, to current tattooers who are killing it in the tattoo world, including, but not limited to Ben Siebert, Derek Noble, Steve Turner etc.)

So remember folks, we are a custom shop, meaning: we will draw what you want, go off images you bring in or see in our books, and yes, we will still happily tattoo a piece of flash on you.
Enough about that, come get tattooed!

On Air

92.9 KISM linked us a couple on air clips that came out of our Re-Do your Bad Tattoo Contest!

The first is our very own Darrin on air answering a few questions from the KISM morning dj's.  Yes, there was an abnormally high rate of the word "boob's" in the dj's questions and overall conversation, but Darrin did a good job meandering his way through to keep from sounding like a total perv.  Good job Darrin :)

The 2nd on air clip was from a woman who entered the Tattoo Redo Contest and it is pretty amazing.    The woman's nickname is "Sweet Cheeks" and she got a tattoo in jail by a person named Hammer, enough said, just listen:

HEADING TO ARKANSAS!

 Jason is heading to Arkansas to work at one of our dearest friends, Dustin Jackson's shop, Anchor Tattoo.  He will be there June 10-14th!  Check out Anchor Tattoo http://www.myspace.com/anchortattooandpiercing. 

This is how we roll

A Jason & Darrin masterpiece painted on the back wall of the shop. Can you believe this was completed in one night?!  Burlington police department got some points for not making them paint over it, apparently it is standard protocol to get a formal permit :)  Who knew?!

For our customer's convenience!

Hello everyone,

we have gone through and organized our 16 different "idea binders" in the lobby and I must say, we are pretty impressed with our organizational skills :)  If you are looking for images and ideas or if you are not 100% sure what you want tattooed, figuring out what that is has just become a whole heck of a lot easier.

Come check us out!

Whose feeling tough? This guy is....

Talk about a marathon sitting for both Jim and his client. This bad boy was a one sitting tattoo completed in just under 7 hours. This guy deserves a round of applause.
