I foregot to put this in my initial post.

These pix were taken a few days after my second session.My tattoo has been touched up and is fully healed and completely done. I will get some pictures of the final healed product.

D3fianc3 – I will have to look into some of those artists. It looks like they do some really nice work.

MrChen – Where are the artists you mentioned located? Im sure you’ve probably said it in a past reply, But are any of them in South Carolina?

MistressOfPain – I will check your album out. I hope it goes well for you! Let me know how it turns out!

I’ve looked at it myself. See my problem is, this is my first tattoo. I dont know what to look at as far as whats considered good quality over bad quality. My uncle has 2 really good peices that he’s done, But I overheard that there was a screw up on my uncles fireman 9/11 tattoo. Im set for Saturday at 5pm. But if I dont approve of the drawing and he’s not willing to remedy the situation, I plan on going somewhere else.

Again, I dont mean to sound like I dont know anything. But what do you guys consider good quality over bad quality?

Mistress Of Pain – I guess my artist called my uncle. But my uncle decided to stop by my house and tell me at the last minute last night, After I had already called my artist and heard it from him. Things come up and happen, It’s cool with me and I understand that his wife wanted him to close up shop today to go to a family bbq. I will make sure to post all kinds of pictures of my tattoo when I get home Saturday night for everybody to check out.

FearOfTheDark – Where do you find the name brand aftercare products like the one you mentioned? Do products like that have to be special ordered through a website, Or can you pick them up at local stores?

Thank you for all the advice and replies. I will keep all the advice and information in mind.

Im mainly just trying to find some good examples to show him. I’ve googled Tin Man and Tin Man tattoo’s and only come up with a handful of good examples and pictures he could show to the artist.

I found a few tin man tattoo designs my dad really likes, Now I guess we have to wait until we go to the shop and artist we plan on using to get a sketch and see what my dad thinks.
