Nathan Williams is a man who knows what he likes. Not to say Nathan is picky about everyday stuff but when it comes to things that are important he has strong views and he sticks to them, and that can only mean good things when it comes to him designing a signature frame. After his years being the full-time filmer at United, James Cox and Nathan built up a strong friendship which then continued to James and Alexis tattooing Nathan at Two Snakes Tattoo shop every time he came to Hastings UK. So who better to get together with to come up with the graphics for his signature frame? Look out for a full interview with James about the project next week but for now get your 'First Look' at the 2016 Mothership...

"The colab came about mainly due to the fact that prior to starting up Two Snakes Tattoo, I was filming full-time for United. Nathan and I became close friends over this period and he inevitably began getting tattooed at the tattoo shop by Alexis (Camburn) and myself whenever he came to Hastings. When the time came round to start thinking about a new colourway for his signature United Mothership frame, he suggested that he teamed up with Two Snakes Tattoo and we could help them supply the frames with a sticker sheet that resembled a page of tattoo flash, so that people could choose the design and location of the stickers like they would with a tattoo. We all thought it was a great idea so things just went from there." - James Cox
