i have found that a majority of people tend to go all colour or all black and grey, not many have a substantial mix, but i think its because im super anal about being symmetrical and the flow of it. I seriously contemplated all black and grey except for one enormous all colour back piece but i just really dont think im a colour kinda gal! lol

I’m not sure that’s a place i ever wish to visit bro…

*shudders* 😉

any time bro! if i get a chance to look at the pics and it reminds me of any other local artists ill give you a shout

just had a look. Not a style i would choose for myself but good clean lines, nice colour choices, should heal really well. Are you pleased with it? 🙂

hellooooooo! 🙂

set up a photo album on your profile page and drop the photos in there, that way people can see them because they arent links if they’re on restricted pc’s like meeeee lol

Hi! Bristol is only a couple of hours from me, i live in Farnborough in Hampshire. There is an amazing artist called Jakub Hendrix who works at a shop Called inkpire in Basingstoke. He is an incredibly talented 3d enthusiast artist (and someone i hope will be doing my back pieve for me) his realism and his colourwork is just spectacular. I cant…[Read more]

Sorry hun but it is what it is and now you’re stuck with it unless you remove or cover it. i have some white fill in on the hand grenade on my finger which is now kinda brown but im not really bothered to be honest. other than that all the white on me is jusst used as a small highlighter so its not noticeable.

weird. aside from the usual scabbing etc i have never experienced in running out of a tattoo! i tend to use the tiniest bit fo bepanthen only when it starts to get dry in the first couple of days and then i just leave it the hell alone. my skin just reacts if i keep buggering about with it. Maybe that’s why mine never ran?

nope, cant see any pf the pictures unless they’re in the profile albums, i cant post pictures either. Im on a restricted work computer but it shouldnt block forum embedded images like that and images show up on other forums i use on this computer, its just this forum that i cant!

I have a question but what do you mean but “when i bleed the ink comes off with it?” Its perfectly normal for some of the colouration to be mixed into the blood while it is fresh but i highly doubt it is being sucked out of your skin layer so that nothing is there when you heal??

Hi, welcome to the forum, i cant see the picture but congratulations on your first ink!

Good luck!

its a tough one and i get where you’re coming from, i like to mix and match my artists, some of them are very qilling to do more pieces to compliment something that is already there but they arent going to be your David Croden, Carlos Torres, Bez, Nikko Hurtado artists, they are more likely to be popular, on the rise local lesser known artists.…[Read more]

Just had a look through, that’s some really nice work you have there! the pocket watch is lovely! Also becasue you have started from the bottom and worked your way up i think that actually leave you with more option than if you started at the top. Not only do you have more space for bigger more elabroate items to be showcased but the way i see it…[Read more]

what kind of style is your current work? realism or traditional, black and grey or colour? i cant post pictures through the forum either for some reason so go to your profile and create an album and post the pictures there, then people can refer back to it. Is the dove in any way a religious symbol or just because you wanted birds? how much of the…[Read more]

What he means is welcome to the forum and please post some pictures so we can have a good look! haha!

i have found in the past that a lot of artists, particularly very talented artists will not “add on” to another artists work, particularly if that work isnt particularly high standard. They dont want to be associated with something that is 90% someone else especially if that work is a lot worse than theirs. If you want to be tattooed by these…[Read more]

I dont know if you posted a picture becuase i cant see, but if your existing dragon is a theme of blue and orange, then you can eaily spread that across the new piece on your ribs if that what you want to do. You dont want a black fish… it will look like a blob, use variations of blues/greens/purples if you dont want red, these are all similar…[Read more]

Once you’re of the age of consent (18 in most places i believe) to get a tattoo no one cares what your parents think. plus, like buttwheat says, im not entirely sure how they would find out…

My parents dont like tattoos but they accept they are on me because im y’know… an adult lol

I cant see the pictures but im guessing boobs, boobs are…[Read more]
