Star Boards

These are the Boards your looking for....

A Charity project involving 65 of the UK's top tattoo Artists, 
small concave pieces of ply wood and six (or at least 3) of the
greatest films ever made.

The 'Star Boards' project is born. Gonna get a load of blank skate decks, get a load of like minded Tattoo Artists and get them to paint, model, spray, burn or do whatever they want to their assigned skate decks as long as it is STAR WARS related. The finished decks will then be displayed at Physical Graffiti tattoo studio in Cardiff for 2 weeks before being displayed at next years Liverpool Tattoo Convention and auctioned off for charity. 

The project so far has had an enormous amount of interest with over 60 top artists wanting to get involved, this number may grow as word of the project grows. Neil from Tattoo Revolutio Magazine is on board and will follow the project to its finale at next years Liverpool Tattoo Convention (dates TBC)

will post a list of confirmed Artists lter this week.
