Star Boards Update


My Darling wife is busy typing up the Artist List and i am now the proud owner of starboards.org which should be up n running midweek. I have found a supplier for the boards but cant get em cheaper than £11 pounds each, so.... im gonna offer up some advertising space on the website and on the back of any flyers i do, just kinda banner sized ads going for £50 each, also if anyone would like to donate anything to the purchasing of the boards feel free. Have to raise almost £800, just send money via paypal to starboards@chrisfuckinjones.com also contact me via this email if your interested in advertising, thanks for your help in advance and may the force be with you.....

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.

Other News....

As well as the Star Boards project I've been real busy at the shop and been getting back in the Convention scene again as well as getting the house ready for the arrival of baby Dexter who's gonna be here sooner than we think......

Worked at the Newport show again this year which was fun did a few nice pieces including this

Back Online

Hey, finally got the internet sorted at home so i can get things a bit more up to date. Been a busy few months, moved house n stuff. still found a lil time to do some painting, did this for my apprentice Tash, you really should check out her stuff. Really enjoyed painting this one, gonna do alot more Starwars stuff in the future i think.


Also did this for a customer, kind of along the lines of his half sleeve he had. Got a few Koi sleeves on going at the moment, cant wait to get em finished and stick some pics up.


Got the chance to do some pretty sweet work recently too, My good friend James wanted a colour portrait of the mask, havent done many colour ones so was grateful for the opportunity. Check out James's photography here, the guys got skills


Also doing a black n grey Rock icon sleeve on Jon, really like the way this one is coming along so far, currently workin on a portrait of Slash on his forearm, heres how the top half looks so far.
