You should have seen the ‘before and after’ shot. The before is particularly horrible :S

Horribly so, yes 🙁

LOL. And there you just proved you’re a troll, and dumb as a box of bricks to boot 🙂

Aye… you picked up 44k working for your daddy. You’re set, no matter what you do. Most people aren’t so lucky 😀

Sorry Wardy, but you’re about the last person in the entire world that should be giving job advice to anyone.

It’s not very constructive, nor can I really make it constructive. It’s simply not well done. Those flames, in particular, are horrid, the roses are bad, and whatever that thing is supposed to be around the heart is.. I don’t know what it is.

Sorry bro, just giving my honest opinion.

Well, I hope that outline drawing isn’t indicative of the extent of your tattooists’s abilities, because that’s not very good.

😮

Why doesn’t Santa Claus have Dreadlocks and smoke weed?

:p

What the hell are you on about Spidey? Hamsternuts was answering whosyourdaddy, who came on here apparently specifically to stir shit with gusto. Nobody is giving hamsternuts a hard time at all.

That argument withstanding, the rest of the thread were us telling you that your tattoo is extremely poorly done, and you chose not to even answer us.…[Read more]

Generally speaking, you don’t design your own tattoo. That’s what you pay your tattooist for.

You don’t have to cover it up if you go out. You CAN go out with it open and jolly. It’s just not a very smart idea. Covering it up won’t change the fact that you’ll be pissed out of your skull and you won’t have ANY idea what you’re doing, whether you’re bumping it into things, whether you’re actually spilling beer all over it or if your mate is…[Read more]

If your boss doesn’t like you using your phone at work, how does he feel about you having knuckle tattoos?

The tattoo is essentially a huge, gaping wound, oosing puss and stubbornly trying to grab hold of all bacteria and other nasties it can find.

If you’re willing to A) Have it ooze into your clothes and ruin them, apart from being all kinds of nasty, B) Risk damage to the tattoo and possibly having to work it over again and C) Risking infection…[Read more]

Yup… that’s what the “live” part in the URL means 😀

There are 12 web-cameras at that link for people to check out. I think my favorite one is the Austurvöllur one during the summer. That’s down-town Reykjavik, and you see all the people just chillin’ while you’re at work trying to earn some money 😀

There’s always concealer as well. It’s a bitch to have to do each day, but at least it’s cooler than sleeves.

It’s an interesting question. Since I am quite hairy, this is a future concern of mine. I believe I’d shave either both or neither. And since having a bare shaved arm would be horrid, I think I’d skip shaving the tattoo arm as well, until I had them both inked.

Honestly, I don’t have the slightest clue.

I recommend you contact TurboSatan and ask him about it. He’s the one pulling all the strings in the background 😀

The Experience system is pretty convoluted so I can’t really explain it in detail for you, but I know that you get 100 minus points for “Necromancing”, or awakening the dead. In this context, that means awakening threads that have been dead for a long time.

Before this post you had necromanced one post that’s been dead for 53 weeks and another…[Read more]

The shading is what’s going to give the tattoo it’s 3D, so it looks like it’s at the stage it’s supposed to.

Who’s your artist?

Yes. Some artists, like Tim Pangburn for instance, specialize in coverups. But if you look through your artist’s portfolio and see many successful (successful meaning that the tattoo underneath is skillfully hidden or eradicated) then you’re in luck. If there are no coverups in the portfolio, or if they just don’t look good, you don’t choose them IMO 🙂
