I like it, the portraits look good and the rose is beautiful. I bet you’re showing it off!

Yay.

Thank you for the advice, which I was looking for. Everyone else go fuck your self, you negitive Nancy’s! To each its own….

Just because the replies you got weren’t the replies that you were expecting doesn’t mean that they did not offer advice. And good advice.

Every shop I’ve ever been to has made a copy of my driver’s license. I don’t see how tracking him down could be that hard.

Looks like he has been doing this for a while, because he has burned more than one shop. So he must either carry misleading ID or have figured out some sad story to tell them about why he doesn’t…[Read more]

So then why do people get white ink? Are that many people unaware of how it changes? Why do the artists use it?

A friend of mine, who is of Ukrainian heritage and tans like a fiend, got a tattoo recently and the artist used a ton of white on it. She was going to go back to have even more white added to it until I told her…[Read more]

Very cool. Lucky you. That’s about the only thing that truly worries me with regards to my tattoo future. There’s quite a lot of red in my plans, and with my luck I’ll probably just reject it entirely.

My last one has a lot of red in it, and I haven’t noticed any problems. Yet. He used Eternal’s.

I like this little guy!! Nice addition.

If you keep the tattoo out of the sun and just use white as a little accent, it doesn’t hold up too bad. My first tattoo had white in it, and while it’s not as bright as it once was, it’s okay.

If you have almost no melanin in your skin (eg. you have very very white skin that can NEVER get a tan at all no matter how…[Read more]

It is brand new but looks like it has been baked in the sun for years. So faded. I don’t think that it will hold up at all. You are going to have to do something about the L or it will disappear in no time.

They look well done. And I like you and your brother having the matching traditional tattoos.

Welcome. Or welcome back. Whichever.

But damn your artist is slow!!! Five sessions on that piece on your back?? That’s insane. My entire sleeve took about the same amount of time.
Artists work in very very different speeds, but I’ve never heard of anyone taking that long on something like that! Good thing you’re so happy about them! 🙂

I thought the exact…[Read more]

I did my whole sleeve in a week but yeah most people take their time 🙂

Yes. But most people don’t end up with a sleeve as FKN AWESOME as yours is, Peter.

Its just a crazy big and detailed piece and I don’t want it screwed up, which is what I’m afraid of..

Welcome to the forum, Bloodshot. Sounds like you have a reason to be pretty proud of yourself!! Stay strong.

I agree with the other folks here. Find an image that you love, that means the same thing to you, and get that instead. And get it from the best artist that you can find.

Tribal is a little too 1990’s. With a great picture people can…[Read more]
