About Royal Legion Tattoo
Royal Legion Tattoo has earned a reputation as one of the most respected tattoo studios in Austin, and the word around town is that it's the artists who make it. Regulars keep going back for skilled, talented work across blackwork, color, and illustrative styles, and locals will tell you the whole crew treats people right from the moment you walk in the door. Ask anyone who's been inked here and a few names come up again and again.
Nat Powers gets a lot of love for beautiful artwork and for creating an easy, welcoming environment. People who book with Kevin mention how conscientious he is, checking in throughout the whole process. Ray Wallace is another one folks request by name, and more than one person says he's exceeded what they were expecting.
David Guy does quality work too, the kind that draws compliments long after. The space itself is small and eclectic, clearly cared for by the artists who work there, and it sits right alongside Spider House cafe, so you can grab a coffee, a drink, or a bite while you're there. We've heard the crew's kindness runs deep beyond the chair too, one person stranded outside in the rain got real help from the artists.
Walk-ins are welcome here, and this is the kind of studio where friendly, professional, genuinely talented people make getting tattooed a highlight. Easy to recommend for anyone looking for a tattoo artist in Austin.
