I just got it yesterday, the artist was recommended to me by someone at work. I had been wanting to get a tattoo for well over a year now, it took me a while to decide what I wanted. I knew I would want a dragon, probably tribal, but I thought I’d get it on my right shoulder. I ended up deciding on my right forearm instead. Because I wanted my first tattoo to be where I could always see it, and where everyone else could always see it. Reactions have been fun, and I’m not done showing it off. But as far as I’m concerned, it turned out to be really amazing, at least for me. It’s a simple tattoo, but I freakin’ love it.
I definitely will wear it with pride. I doubt I’ll ever add to it, I don’t really plan on covering myself in tattoos, I just want a bunch of small ones, I suppose. Not really sure yet.
He was only gonna charge me 170 dollars for it, but I gave him an even 200. I felt like tipping him a lot, and I’ll be going back to him for all my future tattoos, so I felt it was worth giving him a good tip.
As for the blue, I originally gave him this picture:

And I told him to change it up and make it his own, and I said I preferred blue instead of red. You can see how much he changed it from the original picture, I couldn’t be more impressed with his work.
I like the color red more as well, but I thought blue would work better for this tattoo. And I’m not disappointed, so I feel I made the right choice.
I honestly don’t see myself getting any huge tattoos, but if it just happens, then it’ll quite possibly happen to me. I guess I’ll find out. I’m just starting out, but so far I already know what I want to get as far as my next 4 or so tattoos go.
