We won’t sugarcoat it — this past year has been nothing short of revolutionary.
We stepped up, rebranded, dropped products that truly made an impact, and hit key milestones along the way. This is what made us set the pace, rather than just keeping up with the industry.
No need to shout about it, we just did the work, and the results speak for themselves. Now, one year after we dropped the Revolution Needles Cartridges, let’s take a look at the journey that brought us here.
The logo is strong and minimalistic, representing our values. The color palette is a reflection of who we are: unwavering commitment, bold in creativity, and not afraid to push boundaries.
Then there’s the tagline: “Skin in the Game.” It’s not just a catchy phrase; it’s a promise. From day one, we’ve invested everything into helping tattoo artists elevate their craft. We get it — artists pour their hearts (and reputations) into every line they ink. That’s why we pour the same into every product we create.
Born from our refusal to stand still, we present you the Revolution Needles Cartridges.
After five years of research and development, plus the valuable insights from our Pro Team, we’ve crafted cartridges to meet the real-world needs of tattoo artists — the natural precision of a sharpened pencil, the flow of a fine pen, and the boldness of a brush.
Unveiled at the 2024 Oporto Tattoo Convention, these cartridges weren’t just another addition to our lineup; they signaled a new era. Since then, Revolution Cartridges have been carving their path into studios worldwide.
We rebranded and launched the cartridges. Next step? revolutionneedles.com.
Faster, sleeker, and embodying our "art first, design at the center" philosophy, this wasn’t just about fresh aesthetics (though we’re loving the look); it was about delivering an enhanced experience that truly captures the essence of Revolution Needles. And we nailed it.
Great tools need great hands to wield them. Enter our Pro Team members.
Representing the pinnacle of their craft, these artists embody the spirit of pushing tattooing beyond its limits. Spanning a range of styles and spanning the globe, our Pro Team showcases what it means to innovate without compromising authenticity. They’re not just a part of the Revolution — they’re at its core.
At the core of our Pro Team stands Samuel Potucek, a pioneer and a key player in shaping our cartridges. His style? It hits with the raw intensity of Lucian Freud and the vibrance of Françoise Nielly, but straight on skin. Right beside him, Toni Donaire brings neo-traditional to new heights, where every piece speaks louder than words, flawless attention to detail, and sharper than lines.
No crew is complete without a color realism powerhouse. Enter Oxi. Did we mention that she switched from architecture to tattooing at 25? Talk about genuine drive and passion. And as legends don’t walk alone. El Bara, a trailblazer of traditional tattooing, turned his studio True Love Tattoo into Europe’s stronghold for the style, earning global respect along the way. Passion fuels our pro team. That’s how Alvarito rose — feeding off music and art, his style never stops evolving.
You know we’re based in Portugal, right? Without Erich Rabel, the black & grey realism game wouldn’t hit the same here. He’s pushing photorealism to its limits and setting new benchmarks. Quang Pham started out hand-poking as a teen — now he blends ancient influence with modern fire, and it shows. Then there’s Bob Mosquito, who turns graphic design into bold, unforgettable tattoos. You see his work once, you never forget it.
Tram left everything behind to chase tattooing — now she’s a reference in precision and fearless dedication. Samu Rico? His hyper-realistic black & grey work looks closer to a photograph than ink, and that’s no exaggeration. And last, but never least: meet Kenta, our most recent member. Found us through Oxi, grew with us, and now he’s rewriting the game in his own way.
These artists are not just shaping the industry — they’re setting the bar for the next generation of tattoo pioneers.
A Revolution is only as strong as those who stand with it.
Over the years, we’ve met countless artists and enthusiasts whose passion and loyalty inspire us every single day. Every message we receive, whether it’s feedback, a shoutout, or a thirst to join the Pro Team, reinforces why we do what we do.
Your voices keep us grounded and push us to keep innovating, improving, and testing the boundaries of what’s possible. After all, you’re the ones who truly have skin in the game.
Without you, the Revolution is just a concept. You risk your skin. You are the movement.
The role of our partners goes beyond distribution.
They drive the Revolution movement from the heart of Europe to the rising sun of the East. These guys are arming artists with the tools to break barriers and push their art to new frontiers. And yeah, they’re crushing it.
Our path keeps evolving. New ground to claim, more artists to fuel. The Revolution marches forward, relentlessly.
This year, we hit the road for a grand tour that was anything but ordinary.
We stormed the stages at The Ink Factory in Lyon, set Nantes abuzz, brought the Revolution spirit to Brussels, and turned heads in Krakow and Alès. Each venue became a proving ground where new talents emerged and familiar faces joined the Revolution.
In four months in 2025, we’ve already been to Le Mondial du Tatouage in Paris, the Milano Tattoo Convention, the Lille Tattoo Convention, Gods of Ink in Frankfurt, Helsinki Ink, Pau Tattoo Convention, and took over the grand stage of Oporto Tattoo.
We don’t come to these conventions just to showcase; instead, it is all about sparking conversations, handing out thousands of samples, and building a raw, unfiltered connection with the artists. A living testament to our growing movement.
Wanna know where we go next? Stay tuned.
This isn't just a year in review — it's a celebration of everything we've built and the movement we’ve created. And all this? Just a warm-up. Next year we’ll have bigger stages and bolder moves. Stick with us, the Revolution’s just getting louder, and we’re nowhere near done.
