The Real Craft Behind Tattoo Art | Las Vegas News

This weekend marks National Tattoo Day, and we dive into the gritty, artistic world of professional tattooing with Bad Apple Tattoo. From apprenticeships to precision inkwork, it’s a craft built on years of dedication—not just talent. Owner Eddie Crotsley walks us through the process, from iPad sketches to stencil tweaks, as client Buffalo Larry fine-tunes his panther design. We also explore the comeback of vintage styles like tribal armbands and barbed wire, and peek behind the scenes at laser removal tech, proving tattoos are permanent—and so is the skill required to create them.
