Self-critique is an important part of the tattoo process, especially during the apprenticeship experience. Every artist on the planet started as a rookie and you wouldn't believe how much some tattooers have improved over the years.

We took a trip down memory lane and let his critique some of his first tattoos. Take a look at how far he's come in the gallery below and let us know what you think of tattooers critiquing their own work in the comments section on Facebook.
