Brave New World

Ben was awesome! Got a tattoo of something he sketched up and it came out awesome.

Got a simple tattoo from Ben walking in. Their place is clean, his work is sharp. Would come back again.

What an unbelievably awesome experience, from the consultation to the actual tattooing. Eric was attentive, thorough & professional. His attention to detail was spot on. I went in with a concept, and we scheduled the sitting for a few days out. In the meantime, he reworked the original design into something even more amazing. The shop is very clean & welcoming. And the prices are extremely reasonable. I plan on getting a few more in the near future and wouldn’t dream about going to anyone else.

In Denver for a wedding and my boyfriend and I came across this shop when we were exploring the city. Ben greeted us and was very friendly and informative right off the bat. He did a great job on my tattoo. I’m very pleased with it and the shop is awesome. And a side note… He also appreciates a vanilla coke. ;)

Ben is awesome! Very personable and talented. Did a great job on a mostly straight lines tattoo for me. Highly recommend his work :)

I LOVE my tattoo. I got my first tattoo at Brave New World about a week ago. I was feeling very nervous before I arrived. But Eric and the whole staff was welcoming and made me feel comfortable. Eric and I made a final decision on the design, he explained what would happen and answered all my questions. The whole experience was great. I followed Eric’s aftercare instructions and the healing has gone smoothly. I’ve received lots of compliments on my tattoo. Thank you to Eric and his whole staff.

Ben did a great job tattooing my husband and I. We got exactly what we wanted and he was very kind and professional. Neither of us had been tattooed in a long time and he was very patient and made us feel comfortable. His line work is very clean and straight which was great for the very geometrical designs we wanted. He also has some great orginal designs. Would recommend. My tattoo healed great and I am so happy with it!

I have been noticing and admiring Eric Cox’s art for years, and just in the last year and a half found myself in his chair. I came to him with a vague idea, a smattering of images that represent a style I’m interested in, and not much more. He listened so intuitively to my thoughts that he turned it into a beautiful composition I never would have dreamed up. I believe I actually jumped up and down the first time I saw the finished drawing. I was so enthralled with the finished result that I promptly asked him to start a leg piece for me. Eric’s style is characteristically his own, and it is apparent he is a lover and maker of fine art. Plus, his shop is amazing. It’s a feast for the eyes the moment you walk in, and a perfect balance of people’s darkness and people’s beauty. You can also guarantee great music while your sitting in the chair.

Got my very first tattoo with Eric. This was a sentimental and sensitive experience for me as I was getting a tattoo in memory of my daughter that I lost in pregnancy. Eric was very empathetic to my situation and took his time helping me narrow down the choices I came up with and which ones would look best and last the longest. I went with her name «Zoey» tattooed on the inner wrist. It was perfect! I never had intended to get a tattoo until the recent events in my life. Thankful Eric was there to help me have a permanent reminder of my daughter.

See pics. Never EVER getting even a fix here. And while owner might be alright, be warned public, artist ben is a rookie and should NEVER have the walk INS. Poor mgmt decision. Prices are a total scam.
Little background, me and my fiancé have many many tattoos. We know the difference of the best, good and down right scam. unless they make this right at least attempt to make this right, the word will continue to spread. Jah willing

I wanted to wait until my tattoo healed completely before I left a review just so my review would be accurate. But I went to Ben Vigil for my tattoo. I was a little nervous at first because it was my first time going to Brave New World, I had gone to a different tattoo guy for my first 4 tattoos. But the minute I walked into Brave New World, Ben made me feel very comfortable and at ease. He spent about 3 hours on my tattoo and the whole time he played reggae music which was AWESOME because it’s my favorite genre of music and really calmed me down. He’s also a really nice guy and is an amazing tattoo artist. I’m planning on getting a sleeve and I will definitely be trusting him with the remainder of it. The tattoo looks perfect, the lines are very clean and it looks even better than I imagined it would. :)

My brother and I both went on a trip to Denver from Edwards. We did some research on where to go and found brave new world. Ben was so nice and effective. When I showed him what I wanted he did even better than the sketch I had. Highly recommend Ben such a great artist and sweetheart!

I am on Cloud Nine right now! Eric is a WIZARD! He turned a HEINOUS botched cover of a tattoo into a work of art I can’t wait to show people. It’s been an eyesore on my ankle for almost 5 years. Now it’s beautiful. This summer, I am going to wear skirts and shorts! I called yesterday, and he said I could come in that afternoon for a consult. He fit me in his schedule the next day. He was very prompt. We started right at 7:30 as scheduled. It took exactly 2 hours as planned. I was very surprised that it did not hurt that much! Some tattoo artists really dig into you and make it hell, but not Eric. My palms sweated, but that was it. The two hours went by fast. He is extremely personable and fun to talk to. Also, the décor is great! So much fun stuff to look at. I chose Eric and Brave New World because of great things I read here on Unilocal.He is THE guy for covers! He has almost two decades of experience, and he is an ARTIST. He has a can-​do attitude, which set me at ease from the beginning. He refuses to «beaten» by a cover. He is a boss! I am coming back to have my other two tattoos (which are nice already) further beautified by Eric. Pricing was very reasonable. My only regret is not going there sooner! In a couple days, I will post some pictures.

A friend and I stopped in at Brave New World yesterday as a walk-​ins both hoping to get very small tattoos. The guys at the shop were very friendly and helpful, fitting us in easily. Ben drew up our tattoos and prepared everything; Eric gave the tattoos and did a fantastic job! I would absolutely go back to this shop (which is decorated phenomenally by the way) to get something more elaborate than yesterday’s tattoo. The art I saw and received is beautiful.

Thank you to Eric! Really appreciate the work you did on my cover up tattoo. It looks amazing. I also felt Eric was very professional and skilled at his craft. He went above and beyond by improving the design that I brought to him. The shop is very clean and sterile. I plan to get my next tattoo with Eric down the road, on the next one ill just tell him the subject and let him do his thing. Again, many thanks!

I’ve been going to Enrique at BNW for almost 7 years now and have never been disappointed. He definitely has taken a few of my vague ideas and made them beautiful. He is an excellent artist and an excellent and professional tattooer.
Everyone at the shop is friendly and helpful. The tattooing is extremely sterile, the shop is clean and the atmosphere is great!

I’ve been putting it off for 10 years for no good reason, but finally decided to get my first tattoo. After researching tattoo shops in Denver, I decided to go with Brave New World. I’m happy to say that it was the right choice. Eric Cox sat down with me and explained the process, sketched the piece that I wanted, and executed it flawlessly.
I have a phobia of needles, and was getting dizzy. Eric was understanding and gave me time to stop spinning before starting again. That was much appreciated. All in all, a great experience, and when I decide to get more work done, I’ll not go anywhere else.

Big ups to Eric. He started a sleeve/​cover up on me last week, and I couldn’t be happier with his work. I gave him a very vague idea of what I wanted, and his drawing was on the money.
I wanted to get tattooed by a top tier artist — that’s exactly what I got.

I heart Eric! He is my hero! He not only covered my circa 1994 arm band with a kickass sleeve. He runs a tight ship at the shop… super clean, awesome artists, and relaxed atmosphere while being carved on with excellent skill!
