Weird question but What does one wear to a tattoo convention in the middle of winter in the North West? I normally wear shorts and a tank top but that is in the summer.

First world problems. LOL.

Howdy. Welcome to the forum.

Go big or go home.

She’s massively disproportionate. Sorry but it looks completely off design wise.

And; You don’t have anything even close to a sleeve. You have some tattoos on your arm.

Especially the second part.

The best advice I can give to someone wanting their first tattoo….is don’t get it done on your prime real estate.
Save your shoulder caps for big/great work.
Friends don’t let friends get script tattoos.

Does anyone besides me think that sarafabel is a joke?
“Let me tattoo this on your thigh, black only. Quote $800-$1600”
Really?
First off if you have creative control on design and placement how the fook do you come up with
A quote that open ended?
Only black….no shading….no color……$200+ an hour…….WTF

Wow. I’d like to laser my whole back…..

Stop thinking in terms of “sleeves” and “half sleeves”. Just start with a “tattoo”. And build from there.

Welcome to the forum.
Where are you from?
My 10 year old elbow could some freshening up but that’s cause its an elbow. You’ll be fine.

Its kinda hard to process. It looks well done and it’ll only get better when it heals.

Also……ouch.

Welcome to the forum. Please post a picture of said wrist tattoo.

Very nice. Congrats on the addition.

Looks great!

Red is the most common color to have an allergy with….supposedly. I personally have a hard time healing red.

These pictures are really bad. Have someone take it for you. Hard to see anything really.

All you need for a great tattoo is a good idea and the right artist. Keep your idea, lose the drawing.

How on earth could you possibly have set up an appointment for two half sleeves and not know what the subject matter will be? Are you aware that sleeves take a lot of time?
Do yourself a favor and cancel. I don’t know anything about you but it sounds like you just want to “get tatted up”.

And that never works out in the long run.
