We're a new studio, so this page is short on purpose: a client we branded and built for, and the product we run ourselves. The next entry could be yours.
Tattoo studio · Corpus Christi
2026
Live now, with every artist bookable straight from the site and the whole shop running on one system.
Black Lantern is a custom tattoo studio on Kostoryz Road in Corpus Christi: ten resident artists, sixteen styles, open seven days a week. We designed the identity, from the blackletter wordmark to the lantern mark, and built the site around the one thing a visitor wants to do: pick an artist and book them. Booking runs on BLKTIDE, our own studio software, so every request, deposit, and appointment lands in one place.

Live at blktide.ink. Black Lantern Tattoo Studio and sponsored artists in Corpus Christi and New Braunfels run their whole practice on it: books, deposits, and taxes.
BLKTIDE runs the business side of tattooing: a booking inbox that turns requests into appointments, a calendar that guards the artist's hours, deposits that hold the date, live tax estimates with quarterly set-asides, flash for sale, and a Tattoo Passport that gives every client a private link instead of a login. Installs like an app, free for solo artists.

A live single-validator devnet runs at onipixel.dev/onichain with the faucet open — request test funds and send a transaction yourself.
OniChain is a Byzantine-fault-tolerant transfer ledger we wrote from the consensus up: Ed25519 accounts, a sharded nonce-ordered mempool, parallel signature verification, deterministic execution over bbolt, and OniBFT — two-phase prepare/commit voting with locking, proposer rotation and 2f+1 finality. The explorer and browser wallet ship inside the same binary and stream every block over a WebSocket as it is signed.

We're choosing our first clients carefully: a few projects at a time, a fixed price, and our full attention.
