its actually prisma pencils on paper

The japanese stuff is cool.

yeah just go through six feet under, thats his shop in upland, ca.

theres no reason you couldnt do a mans ruin half sleeve. Its just an idea, you can compose it many different ways.

when it comes to tattoos, you generally get what you paid for if youve done your homework. 100-200 an hour is pretty standard though.

usually it will start to flake and peel. After that it will look kind of shiny, and the skin wont quite look right yet. Its just that the skin isnt completely healed and back to normal. Usually from the shiny point its a week or two and then it should be back to normal. If you are talking about spots where the color is just missing, this could…[Read more]

Definitely wait,,, your asking for problems unless you can give it at least a week to heal before really working out and runnning around slamming into things.

the pics are kinda blurry, but from what I can tell it looks pretty rad. The shapes and flow in most of it are pretty good.

very rad! looks awesome

it may be a little to out there for you, but how a bout just a simple silhouette of a man playing a guitar. Literally its simple man.

Usually most problems with drinking after a tattoo have to do with falling down, being dirty, letting a bunch of other people drinking put their nasty paws all over that fresh wound. The actual drinking alcohol part wont do much unless you go on a serious rager.

Never get tattooed at someones house!!!!! Why? Almost everyone tattooing out of their house is going to be poorly trained and more than likely, really unsanitary.

ive done tons of sets of eyes, but never just the eyes of someones kid. Usually the eyes are meant to be more erotic or more horror like and creepy. I would think it a little odd, but to each their own. The tattoo is ultimately for you, so what you think is really all that matters, when it comes down to it.

I would say more wrist and hand, less arm. You could get some wicked detail in this if you made the hand and wrist much larger and took most of the arm out. Bigger tends to be better for the longevity and shear impact of the tattoo.

Where Im at in Mississippi, you have to be 18.

looks awesome

The idea is awesome, but the coloring and shading looks abit patchy, Theres quite a few holidays in the tattoo here and there. But nothing a good touch up session couldnt fix and make this a great tattoo.

You get what you pay for, Just find a good artist you are comfortable with that does a quality of work you are comfortable with and get as much tattooing done as you can afford at a time.

looks like a great start, nice clean linework.

I like it, but really would have left the gray shading out. Especially in that style, just black and lines.
