Hi

If you choose your design wisely you will not regret it if you look at it for a month + everyday youwill see if you want it.

The pain is bearable you will not be laughing but I doubt there will be any screaming 😉

Hi personally for a calf I would go for the down drop wings which can be reduced without too much detail loss if size is an issue.

The up wings would require a wrap to make to do them justice (which you do not want) and the small straight ones always seem a little cartoony or feminine to me (this is just a personal taste thing).

Good luck with…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum.

Don’t forget to post up ics an an account of your first tattoo experience (if you can be bothered).

@ Joker it brought tears of pain to my eyes knowing that we shipped far to many criminals over and damn if you didn’t survive to reproduce and haunt us on this forum! 😀

Hi and welcome.

Well the tattoo is really something that is personal taste –

Do you want black n shade or colour?

How big do you want the tattoo small and cute to a body suit?

Where do you want the tattoo placing (it is addictive and you may need to plan placement esp if you want sleeves or a backpiece).

What style of tattoo interests you…[Read more]

Hi

Yes the tattoo can be translated quite easily however there are factors that will need to be taken into account.

This is quite a detailed tattoo so if you want to fit all the detail in you may need to choose a bigger placement area such as chest or calf.

I would recommend spacing the metal posts out a little so not to cramp the ink up and…[Read more]

Hi with regards to the use of blue shading I would think that the tattoo would look more stunning if you added a hint of bright blue to the eyes (which should easily cover the green as it looks a little faded) and maybe redo the hair with blue highlights to brighten up the hairpiece.

It would also add a sense of punk anime to the tattoo.

Hi

You have to be 18 to get a tattoo in Greece but many scabby studios there will likely not care and do you at the age of 16. (I have been round many of the islands and seen some of these pits).

The decent studios will demand ID those that don’t will often be of questionable skill and likely dodgy hygiene.

As for the actual inner lip tattoos…[Read more]

Hi KH

I rang a tattoo artist I know up and asked him bluntly what would he be looking for and he was nice enough to give me a run down.

He said that he gets several requests for apprenticeships and some from art students. He said the main issue that let many down was the fact that their portfolio sucked or did not show what he wanted to see.

I…[Read more]

Hi

Ok I understand now so they did the outline in water then went over it again in pigment?

Well to be honest whilst I wouldn’t agree with it myself ( I prefer my artists to get straight on with it with pigment) as long as the needles and tubes etc were sterile the tattoo and your sister should be ok.

If they are just starting out they prob did…[Read more]

Hi

I just looked over the details of this and please any of you artists correct me but…

Your sister went to a shop and they put on a stencil and said I am just going to outline this – walk to a sink pour some water out and start to drag a needle over the outline using water only?

Ok this means only 1 of 2 things:

1. The tattooist was using a…[Read more]

Hi

Actually it can extend from anything that can be considered unpatriotic eg a tat of a burning USA flag etc, the use of facist/nazi symbols, or communist hammer and sickle, or prominent (known to USA) gang tattoos, or terrorist affiliation that is publicly visible (eg forearms, hands, neck face, head) that cause entry problems.

This is because…[Read more]

Hi

Just a reminder whilst we encourage debate and some amount of disagreement – can ppl please rein it a little?

To clarify a few things;

@ kcity3 – The way I have read this thread is that you state that your deceased friend had this tattoo and that you want to replicate it on yourself as a memory to their life.

I would advise taking the image…[Read more]
