Portrait of Whambam Tattoo artist Andrew Brown, London tattooer specialising in bold traditional tattoo work

MEET THE

ARTIST

I'm ANDY (HE/HIM), otherwise known as whambam tattoo. Originally studying graphic design at Central Saint Martins, I moved into tattooing in 2010.

Now based at Good Times Tattoo in Hackney Central, London, my work is rooted in stylised American traditional and script, with a focus on strong linework, balance, and longevity. Experienced across a wide range of styles, I take on projects where I know I can deliver the best possible result.

Below is a rotating selection of 20 ready-to-tattoo designs, available to book right now. Sizes listed are a guide, not a rule — everything's roughly to scale but can usually be adjusted a little to suit you, so just ask if you'd like something bigger, smaller, or slightly tweaked.


This is a small, ever-changing slice of the full flash collection — new designs rotate in regularly, so it's worth checking back if nothing here jumps out today.
