Blackwork, dark ornamental and organic tattoos designed to live with your body
not just sit on it.
Artist Statement
I’m Victor Martin, also known as Cervino Tattoo, a London-based artist. My work is rooted in Dark Fantasy and the medieval shadows — witchcraft, dungeons, natural elements and the raw mysticism of forgotten stories. I’m drawn to the way organic shapes can wrap the body and feel like they were always meant to be there.

The process
A short chat to understand your idea, placement and timing. For complex pieces we may mark the area on your body to plan flow.
Share your concept, a couple of reference photos and where you would like the tattoo.
Freehand: I sketch directly on skin to match anatomy and movement.
Custom artwork: I prepare drawings when the concept needs detailed planning.
We’ll pick what gives you the best result.
A full day session is 600£ and a half day is 300£. Prices can always be discussed for more specific projects. You can book sessions on consecutives days or space them over the time, whatever works best for you.
I’ll share how to prepare (rest, hydration, skin care) and provide a simple aftercare guide for clean healing and long-term contrast.
