If youre worried you could Amway incorporate a more feminine background or some filigree or something. The contrast could look cool.

I’m happy I kept it where it was originally done but I get what…[Read more]

Love your avatar btw.

An autograph is a symbol of a memory. When you meet someone you look up to you often have an ethereal blur muddle your thought, especially if you’ve spent the afternoon waiting to meet them in the pub. It’s a concrete reminder of an awesome event.…[Read more]

Laser doesn’t have to mean complete removal. It can just lighten the image a bit 🙂

Lol what is it with people and quotation marks. “Opinions” “chap” whats going on here people?!?! lol.

I’ve been getting tattoos for a long time now so I don’t mind and/or care that autographs are not to everyones taste. My logic for getting it was that it was a once in a life time moment with a guy that…[Read more]

Like I say; it’s a poor tattoo by normal tattoo standards but I adore it. Best day of my life so far and fav tattoo to date.

If they’re huge again…[Read more]

I don’t see why him being a wrestler has anything to do with anything, same for my age. I like who and what I like. He’s been a massive part of my life and has made a huge impact on me as far as my writing,…[Read more]

I dig the towel and the belly. Who wants a skinny dude in a white towel?! Nobody!

Chicks with tattoos are hot no matter what they get (within reason lol)

Lol sorry man, didn’t mean to trad on your toes 🙂

I guess anything clocky, clocks without numbers, clocks with numbers but no hands, a sun dial with no shaddow, an hour glass.

If you’re into the rose idea, an hourglass with rose…[Read more]

The line work on my half sleeve isn’t exceptional my any means but it’s so heavily coloured that you don’t even notice and it looks awesome (or I think so at least) as a whole.

Keep us updated as the work continues. It’d be cool…[Read more]

I always have my nails painted, if there’s a chip they get redone. I always have my hair done (mostly cos it’s short and looks crap if I don’t) I’m a 50:50 dresser ie. I have lots of pretty skirts/dresses but I also feel perfectly comfortable out in my jeans. I’m also fairly heavily tattooed.

I have a cherry…[Read more]

I’m a chick but I’d probably judge a guy for having a shit pre-pube tattoo.

I think the fad at the moment is more cutesy tattoos than just barbie. Anything childish seems to be in; Care bears, my little pony, barbie, Disney princesses, Strawberry Shortcake, cupcakes, sweets …..that kinda thing.

I think because…[Read more]

Were you wanting to stay black and grey or branch out into the world of colour?

Lets hope his shading is better than his outlines and it disguises them cos those lines ain’t good mate.…[Read more]

Timeless like won’t ever go out of style? Or timeless like an image that could literally be interpreted as ‘without time’?

I think you either have the tattoo….i’ll call it a gene. I love my impulse tats as much as my well thought extensively researched pieces even my shit tribal on my hips. They are who I am…[Read more]

why not? I’ve only just had my outer half sleeve done, it took me 2-3 years to settle on a theme but I settled on it because I think its pretty/cool but I also think its timeless.

You cant suggest that a few years of…[Read more]

Im doing my final year project atm too so LOVE you’re doing about tats. Is it sociology? From the questions you asked I don’t know what you expect to find. Other than tattoos and perceptions there were no themes. I think you should focus on the qualitative data from the comments rather than quantitative from the yes/no…[Read more]

How come your artist went over the same spot the following day? Is the rule not to let it heal then go for round two? That’s the way it’s always worked fro me…..:confused:

^That is not, by any stretch, all of my ink.

I get what I…[Read more]

I’m a half sleever because I want to teach English and in summer I’m pretty sure I’d sweat my ass off in full sleeved shirts.

I don’t think money is an issue. If you care that much and want one that…[Read more]

I’ve never had any work done on my feet but I would imagine they would take longer to heal cos of shoes, socks etc but I’d have thought it’d be healed by…[Read more]

I’m going to leave the bit of writing exposed. I only got rid of the other bit cos it started to smudge a bit; one of the words was almost in a cloud of it’s own ink…..weird. The rest is still important to me and I want it there, it says ‘the deeper that sorrow carves…[Read more]

Is it the koi you like or the Japanese/Oriental style in general? What are you into? What inspires you?

Is it a 3/4 sleeve you’re after? Like fill your whole upper arm?

I like the originality of the idea, don’t get me wrong, and like you said the whole boring/cursed partner name tattoo is a little bland…[Read more]

That kind of writing rubs me up the wrong way too so you aren’t alone mate.

On the tattoo in question. My advice is leave your wrist alone and DON’T get…[Read more]

Saying that, I much prefer being inked on boney areas than fleshy ones which seems to be rare. Maybe I’m just odd :s

I’m a student so I’m in the ‘not being able to afford the whole thing in one go’ boat. I want to design it myself and the way you’re doing yours sounds like a good idea plus once it’s finished I imagine the sense of achievement will be amazing. I’m looking forward to the challenge (inbetween coursework of course lol). Got untill…[Read more]

Forgive me but are you a chick or a dude?…[Read more]

Ditto. I hope you’re kidding about Randy Orton being a crap wrestler too. He’s a fucking god.

Just above your elbow sounds cool.

I just suggest that cos I’m studying to be a teacher and I know big pieces on arms etc will fuck up my chances at a job good and proper. I’ve surrendered to the idea of wearing long sleeves so I can do what I want with my body. I’m getting my first arm piece on Monday :s meep big step…[Read more]
