Brilliant Black & Grey work from Ladislav Hacel | Buy the Victor Portu

27 July 2019

This week we're taking a look at some of the incredible black and grey work done by our super talented pro-team artist Ladislav Hacel. Known for his amazing realistic tattoos, Ladislav works from Alone in the Dark Ink in Didcot. He's an exceptionally talented artist with a very solid work ethic which we hugely admire.

Ladislav moved from Slovakia to the UK in 2007, and decided that he loved the idea of pursuing a career in tattooing. He got the ball rolling by learning to tattoo, whilst working 2 other jobs in order to fund the early stages of his tattoo career. After a few years of mastering the technical art of tattooing, Ladislav opened his own tattoo studio in Didcot, where he's worked from ever since.

Ladislav really enjoys working at tattoo conventions, and he has won around 50 awards for his tattoos (all first place!). He’s also been published in various tattoo magazines, and has won 2 British Business Awards as well, which is a big achievement for him. He’s sponsored by Radiant Tattoo Ink, so is naturally a huge fan of the Radiant Tattoo Ink Range and their huge colour selection, however he's an incredibly talented black and grey artist as well, and doesn't just create colourful tattoos. His black and grey work is phenomenal, and today we're going to take a look at some of his amazing work.

We're in love with this Greek God style piece done by Ladislav recently. The positioning of the horse and it's white highlights are perfect.

The most beautiful tiger piece ever. This majestic tattoo has left us in awe.

A sombre religious piece depicting the Crucifixion of Christ.

This one will always be a personal favourite of ours. We love how detailed this creepy Sarcophagus piece is.

This spooky skeleton spaceman is insane! It really sends shivers down your spine just from looking at it. Top work by Ladislav.
