Lately I've been seeing some awesome collaborative tattoos and I think they're just going to be getting better. I saw a question like this on another board so I thought I'd throw it here.
If you could chose any two or more artists to do a collaborative tattoo on you who would you choose, and why.

And would you want contrasting styles or similar?
I'd have to say I lean more towards a collboration with contrasting styles. I think it creates a dramatic effect. Like getting two differant tattoos smashed together, but both artists are there to plan where one overlaps or adheres to the other. like these two for example.. http://www.allornothingtattoo.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=37&pos=4

Carson Hill and Bert Grimm...Talk about a contrast!
Oh yeah ya didn't say they had to be alive!..TAz
Joe Capobianco and Joshua Carlton really come to my mind first. Both contrasting styles for sure...
HERNANDEZ and SHIGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brain Everett and Aaron Cain
Brandon Bond and Timothy Hoyer would be pretty f***ing sweet
No necessarily for me, but how about Joe Capobianco and Bob Tyrell. That tattoo would have the most honest happy positive energy humanly possible!
Gabe, so are you talking about the tattoo or the energy coming from the artists? ( I know that the energy put in is the energy that comes out) I guess you have the advantage of personally knowing many many fantastic artists. I just look at their stuff online.
Guy Aitchison and ..... Oh my God!!! Mickey from Dr. Pogue's Tattoo Institute.... That is the ESSENCE of contrast!
Apachee Jill Tong, and Jeannie Cooper
im really into chick tattooists, and they are both great artists that have been around a long time
