Tough call really.

I personally am a black and shade fan but a phoenix I would lean towards colour because they are such bright and fiery creatures – may look a little muted in just black.

You have to go with what you love best though.

Hi

That is some of the best tribal I have seen in ages – the main bit is the solid shading and the fact it flows with your body shape.

Too many times I see it where it has just been slapped on with no thought and seems to be drowning in a sea of skin.

Nice work.

Hi Ghosst

Plasma and ink leak is normal for the first 12-24 hours if it continues after 48 hrs you need to seek medical attention.

Wash the effected area with non scented soap and pat dry.

Grab some ice and wrap in a plastic bag or thin cloth or use some frozen peas and lay on the area for around 15 mins or longer if you can stand it no more…[Read more]

Hi

Whilst you have likely done your research here is quite a few examples of writing on skin tattoos that might give you an idea of how it looks.

Hi Frijj

If the weight loss is extreme or very fast you do need to wait until you balance out at your desired weight because the skin can stretch or sag depending on this and that tattoo can be effected by this.

Moderate to slow weight loss or gain does not tend to effect tattoos.

Again with the colour purple tattoo pigment can be made up from…[Read more]

Hi

There are many in the Jewish community who will find the fact you have a tattoo offensive no matter what the content is.

That said the content of the tattoo is not offensive to me or arguably anybody else as it is not of the following taboo’s;

Worshiping the dead.

Idolotry.

Nudity.

Blasphemy/Heresy.

I think it would make a fine…[Read more]

That is a really great piece of ink.
Looking forward to seeing it when it is healed up.

Gratz on getting it done.

Looking forward to seeing it and remember no steam rooms saunas or swimming pools for two weeks so you don’t knacker the ink.

Tell Colin Matthew (Brit who did a Lion of Juda for) sent you might get a discount. 😉

A piece that size across chest and arm will easily set you back $600+ dollars prob closer to $800 as a guestimate.

That is looking exceptionally lifelike.
Must have taken some time to get that far.

Looks great though.

Hi

My mates are currently working in UK but I think they are not so far from from you If I am spelling it right it is a place called Goias (western part).

They say when they return though likely will be to work in the tourist industry (that is what they are studying here).

Hi

No does not make much of a difference as the artist will draw to fit the size of arm that you have.

Hi

To be honest unless you know the artists really well i wouldn’t have it done by several as their styles will likely not flow as a singular piece.

If you are having such a serious piece done I would suggest just not wandering into a studio and saying yep outline this – you want it planning and then fitting so that it is a custom fit to your…[Read more]
