If anyone is interested I believe that Tattoo Artworks in hahndorf (Adelaide) use vegan ink- they told me they use Intenze. Fran (dragonlady) is amazing but i hear it's a 12 month waiting list these days and is getting longer and longer by the years so book first then save haha. She is totally worth the wait though!!
yeah down to earth in niddrie is the only joint that i know who has vegan tattoos. good blokes there. gave me a discount when he did my 'vegan' tattoo across my back. should check it out if you live in melbourne.
Down to Earth Tattoos is run by awesome guys and gals. I stood outside waiting for my date (he wanted me to watch him get his first tatt) for about 3 hours (I was super early) and they asked me if I wanted to come in and have a drink. So so so nice. And good work too.
