Stuart P Gets Dublin Inked... All you fans of Miami Ink and Kat Von D hold on to your arm sleeves as this town is about to get its own celebrity tattoo studio when Dublin Ink opens its needles in December. Already Big Brother pin-up Stuart Pilkington has flown-in to town specifically to get inked-up by the skin artists who permanently painted him with the iconic George Clooney tat last seen in the Tarantino vamp movie From Dusk Till Dawn... Stuart Pilkington Tattoo artist to the stars Leigh Guerrine from Miami Ink fame is setting-up-shop here in Dublin next month and already his celebrity clientele are lining-up to be the first ones to get permanently inked at his Dublin Ink studio. George Clooney, Stuart Pilkington Last weekend Guy-Liner enthusiast Stuart Pilkington of Big Brother 9 fame flew into town to have Leigh's steady hand recreate George Clooney's From Dusk Till Dawn tattoo in black ink all the way from his neck spiraling down to his left wrist. That had to hurt. Stuart Pilkington What with the success of the Miami Ink TV shows there is even talk of a Dublin Ink version of the hit series following the Irish lives of the tattoo artists and people who they ink-up... We're big fans of uber babe Kat Von D here at ShowBiz.ie - hopefully she'll make it over for the December launch of Dublin Ink.

Sandy – Dublin November 07, 2009 - 17:10 I've read all the posts and there are some very strong opinions out there, but the point that seems to have been overlooked is that this tattoo, while clearly derivative of "tribal" tattoos which have been embraced by the homosexual community, is at best, conceptually mediocre and ultimately embarrassing for all parties involved. Anyone who knows anything about prison tat culture knows that this, being on the bearer's left arm indicates that Mr. Pilkington is a bottom. With a tattoo like that he would surely be the type who gets passed around by the inmates as a "f#*k toy". Nicola – Dublin November 06, 2009 - 13:51 That must be some dog...... get a life ya fu..ing dope...Dog could do better they dont even have hands Ken – D4 November 06, 2009 - 13:23 My dog could do a better tattoo than this. Amateur at best. jim tattooist! GBR – GBR November 03, 2009 - 22:06 firstly its not maori or polynesian !!!! its common tribal.. it comes out of some normal persons head and means nothing , not a witch doctor or trial leader, symbolizing family heritage .... its retarded that u people get on here and slate stuff u have no idea about at all ,, so do us all a favour, before you comment read about it! educate yourself! because you just look absolutely stupid! nice tattoo! soild ! ps stuart is an english pretty boy not irish!!!!!!! Mirg Praree – Rathmines November 03, 2009 - 20:57 Yer right Jake! You know what happens to girls like this with Maori tattoos like that? They get fed to alligators. What could possibly compel an Irish ladyboy to cover his body in sacred Maori symbols. I hope he never travels to NZ or they'll shrink his head. Jake the Muss – Auckland November 03, 2009 - 18:44 This tattoo is actually Maori in origin. It was once painted on boys who were fond of mating with marsupials. These days it is painted on transgender loving gentlemen who like to dream of being found floating naked in George Clooneys swimming pool whilst George massages his pet pig. Stuart is a fine model for this work of art. Noami – Dublin November 03, 2009 - 18:41 All tattoo's are disgusting. Highlander – Toast November 03, 2009 - 18:35 That is beyond pathetic. Is this the route all the insecure post celtic tiger boys are going to take. It's like a huge scar of insecurity. LOL john prentice – dublin November 03, 2009 - 16:31 Ha, what a stupid lookin Tattoo, any decent artist would'nt do such a blatant copy of an already crap tribal. We will see how this all turns out.......... Nicola – Dublin November 03, 2009 - 16:30 Well for one you knob (Loserville) you cant even spell Tattoo correctly, think about it mate... How is that for Irish Socialites Loserville – Massachussets November 03, 2009 - 16:01 There is a whole load of self promotion going on here me thinks considering the only ppl who read this site are models and 'irish socialites'. None of whom have ANY interest in tatooes. Cop on lads! Lynzi – Dublin November 03, 2009 - 14:34 I am loving this tattoo, i've seen some more of Leighs work and its all super!! Oooh and i cant wait for the Dublin Ink series hurry up and get filming!! :) Pauline – Dublin November 03, 2009 - 11:31 I got my first tatoo done by Leigh..

Cassie – Dublin November 03, 2009 - 09:50 My 10 year old daughter has a better tattoo than this that she drew on herself this morning with a marker. And even she has the sense to do something unique rather than something George Clooney already had for a movie. Keep on dreaming Stuart. You ain't no Mr Clooney-more Mr Bean!! Nicola – Dublin November 03, 2009 - 08:20 Leigh is a great got my full back done by him and have to say its the best tattoo i ever seen...
