[@realpkchronicles]

More artists need to be like him!

[@Nicoda1st]

That Horse with the flames surrounding it, is among the 10 Best Tattoos ever to be made by any artist

[@baax]

I love it as well, incredible piece

[@majed89]

This is what tattoo shows should be like. Thank you for the uploads :)

[@drivenbythechills]

Holy schmokes ! Keep being amased by the talent & artists that you guys show in your vids. The talent & quality of tattoos in that guy is insane !! Dedication, strong will, hard work & passion really does something wonderful

[@jason.dinsmore]

Hell yea, all tattoos should be timeless. That's a huge quantifier.

[@Burgerofthehill]

I love how he wears a dress shirt and tie. Tattooing can be classy.

[@ccccchhhhh]

Class has nothing to do with what you wear and everything to do with how you treat people

[@thegodfather2402]

Truly a great guy - personality of gold. I'm honored and proud to wear his art

[@khaithianthang]

Thanks Vice, i found this the legendary of Traditional Japanese Tattoos artist.

[@NineLegend]

Best artist I've seen yet in this series.

[@natehavens1758]

Kings avenue is a great shop. I'm in the middle of a project working on a sleeve (Jason June) at the NYC shop. Definitely a place to go, all their work is amazing.

[@supremeguru2753]

Went to school with Mike and he was an artist already this dude can draw his ass off . He was a beast in art class he could do anything. But he was into sports in high school.

[@wackeyweber]

His place has an almost dentistry type vibe and i kinda like it. As someone with 0 tattoos and nervous about getting into it, I think a vibe like that comes across as professional and would make getting into the idea of getting tattooed a little more accessible.

[@DamaLiam]

Most shops nowadays are like that. Obviously not the caliber of mike and his guys, but most legit shops are sterile and classy

[@ryandasilva604]

Just here for my yearly watch of these videos.

[@josephcampolattano9676]

Really enjoyed this!

[@whoismds6002]

the next time i'm in NYC i'm getting inked by him! Love his style

[@mustyoudie]

I got so stoked when I saw the Plainedge jersey. I had no idea!

[@JeffHardy303]

I live in the town right next to his,definitely getting my first tattoo with this guy.

[@ConsciousKing10]

mad respect for this guy.

[@redrocker109]

This guy is so wholesome and I love it

[@butterflytara]

My tattoo artist and I am working on a realistic butterfly tattoo... with at least 50 realistic butterflies. I am so happy and proud of him that he is able to do it exactly the way I want them....

[@kevinowings77]

This video makes me happy because I try so hard to do customer service and good work. Congrats Mike.

[@isaaccastillo6574]

These videos are over 10 years old on KZbin and I’m just finding them now. Hopefully @vice does some follow ups

[@khaithianthang]

MIKE RUBENDALL YOU ARE JUST AWESOME !!!!

[@draven3838]

Outstanding artist

[@decadesofsegregation9677]

Part three was semi hard to find. I see a lot of people looking for it. Not on KZbin but at this link. www.vice.com/en_us/article/mike-rubendall-3

[@shinma989]

Tom LaSala Broken video in that link now, unfortunately.

[@nickbailiff575]

[@ratmosphere]

[@dominiquen2021]

beautiful work

[@drakemanification]

Absolutely amazing art work

[@MrLisztomaniac]

6:30 the same thing I tell to everyone who tells me I'm wasting my money continuously on tattoos

[@toknowclark]

Very nice work

[@Superglassmaskinen]

I love this guy! :D looks so happy!

[@samburns6405]

Too many people try and find a reason for getting a tattoo and it having to have some sort of meaning when i think simply just enjoying the art work is good enough.

[@HGQjazz]

People tend to get the tattoo they deserve, whether or not they actually try to.

[@juggernaut0701]

Wouldn't doubt it. Also in Pappalardo's epicly laterd he mentions his dad owns a pizza shop.

[@NickPearsonMD]

whoa! thats anthony pappalardo's family's pizza shop!

[@fred788]

I love the fact that his friends dad slash old boss doesn't say rubendall but ARUBENDALL 😂 SOOO NEW YORK

[@Krimbopulous]

5:17 is that Rick DiPietro?!

[@BucketPukes1969]

[@joeyquan4188]

Funny to even see him recreating Grime's flames

[@BucketPukes1969]

[@RightToImagine]

[@Vin94100]

[@qotsaGirl7]

[@tagone05]

Very inspirational.

[@fuzzy5987]

Agent 47 is that you? 🤣

[@tayllor2900]

I would think so since celebs go to him and people travel from around the world to get a piece made by him

[@BuffaloSouljaa]

I wish I could make my mind up on getting a tattoo, wanted one for years just cannot get inspired for the right one.

[@puprilla]

Never get hung up on the idea just get what u want

[@graciousdeak]

[@madekosala32]

They should make a documentary about Derek Noble

[@zackcoffmanguitar]

[@doglaikadog]

ANTHONY PAPALLARDOS DAAD AAAA YES!

[@CPBrodcast1]

[@rgrobot7986]

Does anyone know the song at 2:35?

[@Lpz77]

Has anyone found out?

[@ica949]

there's a lot of artist of his caliber but theres like no ranking or something like that in the tattoo community

[@fragtall]

Jason Statham tattoing Japanese work lolll

[@Horchata44]

Couldn't have said that any better!

[@dozhadeville444]

I wonder if the smell of blood and the cutting make them attracted more to the work..?

[@pacovl46]

Gandalf got killed by the balrog? I'm not familiar with the books, but in the movies it's gandalf who killed the balrog!!!

[@marcotoni231]

It seems like people on the east coast are really into asian art, and here in the west coast it's more like black and gray, kinda chicano prison style.

[@jhonnyrodriguez3282]

Alguien sabe dónde lo puedo ver en español

[@kidflashlife5293]

Agreed

[@kennytesta9312]

Fondu 😂😂

[@InternetLawman]

Asian tradition and culture is as much a part of human culture and history as eating with forks, wearing jeans, and the atomic bomb. Every person on this planet is human, and as such I believe that each person should be allowed to appreciate and respect art as the piece of human tradition it is. To say "This is Asian culture and should only be worn by Asians," Is very narrow minded thinking. Last time I checked, Asian are humans. And as a human I'm getting a Japanese tattoo.

[@axelwagon7030]

does anyone know how much he charges per hour?

[@TimeTravelinHendrix]

I watch this 3 part on mike way to much...

[@RightToImagine]

how old are you?

[@marcotoni231]

lol, are you from cali too. Cause I'm from the bay area. Also your right that shit is tacky.

[@avenidaescuela2708]

calidad

[@tattooedstranger]

is there any better than this guy?

[@edvenuto9614]

I got 50 tattoos many people think tattoo artist are drug users or devil worshippers. His shop the Beverly Hills tattoo shop.

[@butterflytara]

it is a half sleeve, with the butterflies comming out of a tear in my skin and spreading out over my upper arm, flying away over my shoulder... Beer, of beerjonnytattoo.nl is the very best to me... Love you Beer!!!!

[@urijahspencer8939]

i...i.. LOVE IT oh and im a kid

[@RightToImagine]

what is your problem? ive seen the place a couple of times, i live about two towns over so i know of it, not that it was this highly praised...im not a part of the tattoo community so how am i supposed to just know that its famous?

[@MrKokoshka13]

good quality shit tattoos. colorful as fuck

[@comfi3038]

he looks and sounds like bill burr lmao

[@theslamcityjameffect]

Anthony Pappalardo's dad?

[@RightToImagine]

so awkward i live two towns over..

[@TIGERGUTS]

wha!!!? Is that? hahahah no shit? So he gets his tatts done there? of course , why not hahaha , fawgetabowdit. small world. love it! sk8 forever!!

[@joshuat5140]

anyone know his rate

[@chuck21222]

+Josh Tanner One of my tattoo artists told me he currently charges $350 an hour, $500 minimum, but even so like most top tattoo artists in the world, his books are probably closed for years before you get an appointment.

[@HGQjazz]

Often times the rate they publicize and the rate they actually charge are two different things.

[@blackcowboymusic]

hahaha yeaaaahhh!!!

[@bostonnate4024]

Heyyy wanna go to the pizza shop? Most NY thing ever

[@amunra4024]

people from Japan, Hawaii, and the Philippines aren't asians we are pacific islanders ISLAND ERS ISLAND...not born on a continent, born on islands k thanks, good speech bro

[@jesseraycharles]

hey close your red eyes @3:49

[@RightToImagine]

Actually its not an irrelevant question. "That awkward moment when..." is a joke in my generation...maybe your taking this wrong even though "its none of your business". Stop calling me stupid and a fool please.

[@P00P0STER0US]

The guy wanted a balrog-type demon, and he got a sea-sick troll. And then they laugh at him. Wow.

[@tommyvalle4476]

Oh and celebrity's don't do drugs 🤦‍♂️
