I have red poppies. healed just like any other ink.. as long as the ink is “good” quality, I believe the allergy thing is a myth.

If it were me (and I’m personal friends my my artist).. I’d go in and say, “hey, I want a flower/butterfly piece on my shoulder and i have $xx.xx amount of money to spend on it.. can you help me design something that will fall in that price range?”

I play roller derby and have to wear arm pads (elbow & wrist) when I play.. ( I have arm tattoos). I have found that using “after Inked” tattoo moisturizer from the moment the tattoo is on has everything healed up within 2 weeks and at least twice as fast as anything else I’ve ever used on new tattoos..

It’s $20 a bottle at the shop I go to, but worth every penny.. (Just a suggestion)

* responding to the thread hijack **

I’m new here too..

I think the rationale holds true no matter where you are that it’s not necessarily the message, but rather the tone & delivery of the message…

I’d suggest a polite, “Hi, welcome! Please be sure to post an intro for us so we can learn more about you!”

P.S. the tattoo idea of the OP is definitely interesting…

I just started on “The Shack” by William P Young which is a religious fiction book…. I saw it on the shelf at Target, and flipped it over and got intrigued.

I am NOT religious, per se, but I can be spiritual and the book is very interesting. I got a B & Nobles Nook for Christmas so I paid $6.00 for the ebook and am about half way through it.

I usually read fairy, vampire, witchy stuff… but I like book that sucks you in, no matter what it’s about..

I knew going in that this would not be a tattoo that everyone would like… the portrait is a stencil of a drawing that someone did that I like. It’s not supposed to be a “perfect” lined tattoo, and I really like the way it turned out myself.

I am definitely looking at adding more background pieces to the piece– I have large poppies lined up for the top piece and we’re going to wait on the bottom piece to heal up and then decide if we want small poppies blowing out of her hand and out into the air, or a crescent moon or …. who knows… I don’t want to rush it.

I read Gregory Maguire’s “Wicked” and realized that there is another side to every story… I found that portrait piece on Deviantart.com that a girl had sketched out and really liked the look —

had trouble deciding between the portrait versus full body, so I just did both!!

The guy that does my work is super particular about his stuff– I have no doubt if it’s a matter of cheap stuff or bad environment– I don’t need to worry at all…

They use his shop to train the new health inspectors..

Obviously this is old news.. but I am interested to see if she ever got them removed or what she decided.. she kind of dropped off the map once everyone figured out she cried “Wolf”..

Yeah- he/she can straighten out the lines ….. I can’t believe I’m going to post this…

before:

after– lines straight, nice celtic knotwork added:

The outline really doesn’t look all that much thicker– very subtle…. the scar in the middle from a crappy artist is hidden a little better… rework done by Marc Rainville at Art Attack in Old Town.. (1st star done by someone I won’t name….)
