That is some very nice ink. My wife hates spiders so I called her over and it freaked her out 😀

Aww thanks peeps 😮

It is really nice to hear some positive feedback.

My artist actually said he is going to be sad when it is done as it is something we have both enjoyed seeing develop as a project.

I am hoping to get a pro-portrait done of it when it is healed and finished and will def host it online.

We are also going to work more detail…[Read more]

lol

That is spot on actually I managed to convince her that the geisha was a cultural part of the tattoo and I had to stick a robe on her (as the orig idea was that she was naked).

My wife still hates that part of the tattoo and should I get a sexy pin up I would def be pushing the boundaries way too far :p

Hi Arni I will try them out.

I am hoping May but depending on his bookings (he has a 5-6 mth waiting list and much of my work is out of hours) it could be June.

I think we will have a few beers when it is completed.

Hi

It is a nice job but clearer pics would be great. Have you considered extending the piece so it don’t look so lonely 😉

I like the fade out effect he has applied to it.

Hey KH run with the zombie koi would love to see it done and it would go sweet with your squid.

I found this link for a number of zombie pin-ups (some are repeats but some good images in there).

Hi Bdubbs

In answer to your question black is not harder to fill in than other pigments it is just more noticiable to the naked eye – especially when healing.

The way it works is that the needle deposits pockets of pigment deep into the outer skin just above the dermis (the internal lower level of skin).

When you first have it done the pockets…[Read more]

Your sis is insane for that spider tattoo im way too soft to go that bad.

I have been prepping myself up for the next session on Friday had some white cell booster shots and I told the nurse I can always have blood transfusion if I loose too much :p

She was banging on about the infection risk and i could go septic and so on.

I know what you mean I promised my wife that my first tattoo would be my last now I am finishing up a backpiece and already had thoughts on a chestpiece.

Even when you get told by Dr’s that you are risking your health and your wife threatens to divorce you still think yes but what next…

Hi

I checked the contents of Tattoo Genie and yep there is nothing in the product that will harm a tattoo and plenty of the non-essential amino acids they refer to are used in a lot of everyday skincare products and as long as applied with a carrier solution will not harm the skin and can encourage healing.

No problem with that it all looks…[Read more]

Hi Emmy

Both work quite well with and without text. Grief is a very personal thing and it really depends if you have the word mum or dates people will usually click it is a rememberance tattoo and may not say anything (so not to upset you).

If it is just a dove a lot of ppl may ask the meaning. It really depends on how comfortable you are about…[Read more]

I would suggest a a small dove outline. They can be done very small.

This could also represent the passing of your mum who I am sure believed she was moving her spirit to a…[Read more]

Hi

Well I am going to step in and say I actually like that tattoo. Whilst I am not a tribal fan as in I would not have it done on myself there is nothing wrong with that ink.

I have seen horrendous tribal tatts and that does not fall into that category.

If you were to incorporate both sets of ink I would suggest relining the tribal and the blue…[Read more]

Hi

First of all I would suggest reading the blog or clicking on my sig and going through it – it may help with some of your basic questions about tattooing.

As for the tattoo – I would suggest that you think very carefully about what defined the relationship and how you want to remember it or honour her memory.

Is there something that would…[Read more]

Be proud to sport them.
