A POPULAR Wrexham tattoo artist has committed to working extra hours due to the overwhelming demand for AFC tattoo designs. 

Last week, Dave Griffiths, 41, impressed his fans yet again with a design of the main man himself - Super Paul Mullin, which received a like from none other than Ryan Reynolds on Instagram. 

Dave is a Wrexham born and bred tattoo artist working at the Taylor Made Studio.  

AFC super-fans have gone wild over his recent designs of the club's refurbished stadium and a Deadpool and club crossover.

The Leader:

Dave said: "After seeing one of my recent Wrexham tattoos on Facebook, my customer approached me to get one of his own. We opted to add in his favourite player Paul Mullin. 

"We used a reference picture of Mullin celebrating whilst wearing the kit which he helped us to gain promotion.  

"The tattoo took around five hours to complete. More will be added to it soon!"

Dave told the Leader that he has witnessed an increase in requests for Wrexham AFC designs since the club's promotion in April. 

A spokesperson from Taylor Made Studios said: "Due to an influx of messages for Wrexham badges, Dave is going to be working on a Monday morning for a few weeks to accommodate the high demand."

He has even started creating alternate designs for the Wrexham AFC badge due to the high volume of requests.

Perhaps club owners and Holywood's dynamic duo Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney will be next in line at the studio.
