How do you know this?

If it’s correctly done it will not hurt much more than getting the tattoo, and will leave no scar, especially since you’ll always be tattooing something new over it. 🙂

I guess it depends where you go…I’m just pissed that I’m not happy with the tat in the first place 🙁 He should give me my $ back!!

Welcome to the forum.

The picture is really too small to judge just how bad the actual execution is but the drawing it self, (although I love the concept of the heart G-clef) as you yourself are finding, is lacking in quality. What jumps right at me is the lack of separation between the dot at the bottom and the vertical…

Very good. Is that picture in your album the “before” picture then?

Yeah, that is before. I don’t get on here much, so I haven’t updated it. I’ll post a pic in awhile. I got the removal done three days ago, so they said it’ll continue to lighten for the next 5 or so weeks. I already met with Joshua Carlton, and he said…[Read more]

If you’re talking about that thing on your chest, then if you want a “great work of art” I’d say you’re going to have to laser that sombitch first.

already did. It lightened it dramatically.

Not at all. Everybody here just wants to see GOOD tattoos, although some obviously prefer big and detailed.
Us liking or not liking the subject matter has nothing to do with liking or not liking the actual tattoo work 🙂

It’s difficult to tell properly from that small image, but that Skull Butterfly looks to be poorly…

I’m looking at a map here.. is this in the big blob of green you call the Berks County Park?

I don’t know if it’s officially part of the park, but yeah it’s right near there. It’s an 8-mile hike round trip from the Hamburg Reservoir up to the Pinnacle and back.

So how frequently is “frequently”? If it’s a very hot and sunny day (which we don’t get too many of here 😉 ) and I’m swimming and chillin’ in the sun, how often would y’all recommend applying?

every 50 minutes or so if youre in the water a lot. otherwise every 2 hours is ok.

Fantastic. Any skiing in those mountains?

Not in the mountains you see there. The closest Ski area is about an hour away. There are about 8 or 9 ski areas within a couple hours drive.

I love Vermont in autumn. It’s probably one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to.

I grew up with it so it was always just how it was, didn’t see it as anything special.

Agreed Arni. I live 10 minutes to the salt water 2 minutes to the river and 30 minutes to the mountains.

Fair enough. If you don’t plan on taking up tattooing people, that is just fine, and your desire to make quality tattoo machinery is admirable. I have no doubt that your gunsmith skills mean that you will be able to do some amazing work with the machines.

However, this forum does not allow the sharing of information that…

No tattoo artist worth his salt will want to take you on as an apprentice if you start building your own bad habits with a machine.

Honestly, I think I’d choose Reykjavik. I just love this city.

At any rate, I’m a city rat, so I would always choose civilization and culture. No decrepit farm houses in the middle of nowhere for me.

Even though that’s a city though it looks peacful compared to most city’s.
