Photorealistic portraits of people, faces, and figures. Skin texture, depth, and shadow that looks alive.
Dogs, cats, wildlife — capturing every hair, scale, and feather with precision and life-like detail.
Classic monochrome with seamless gradients and smooth transitions. Timeless and bold.
Vivid, saturated colour work built to stay bright for decades. Every hue placed with intention.

Bring your reference, your ideas, or nothing at all. We'll work out the design and placement together.
About me
I'm Evgenii — a Russian-born, UK-based tattoo artist with 15 years of experience turning ideas into permanent art. Specialising in hyper-realism, I work from my private studio in Cheltenham and travel for larger projects.
What clients say
"Evgenii tattooed a portrait of my late father. The likeness is unreal — I cried when I saw it. Every time I look at it I see my dad. Absolutely incredible work."
"Got a full sleeve done over 3 sessions. The detail in the wolf and elk is insane. Strangers stop me in the street to ask who did it. Evgenii is genuinely world class."
"Travelled from Manchester for a colour realism piece. Worth every mile. The consultation was thorough, the session comfortable, and the result is jaw-dropping."
