About The Dead Man’s Hand Tattoo

The Dead Man's Hand Tattoo sits on Sturt Street in central Townsville, a custom studio that keeps things clean, private and comfortable rather than flashy. A small crew of resident artists covers a broad spread of work, from detailed portraits to full custom pieces designed around a single idea.

The studio frames itself around collaboration and takes the time to plan a design properly, which shows in the way regulars describe the place as welcoming from the moment they walk in. Cover-up work sits alongside fresh tattoos, so it suits people rescuing an older piece as much as those starting something new.

With consistent five-star feedback and a steady resident team, it reads as a dependable local choice for considered, one-off tattoos.
