The leopard print area you are talking about is the start of a nebula:

The easiest way to explain the background is that it represents the cycle of life on a cosmic scale. Eventually when its done it will have forms of all of the the stages of life:

Birth: the nebula
Life: the landscape, invader Zim in his voot cruiser eventually, and the…[Read more]

I have been looking at a lot of the picture Hubble has sent back, and I think I found a background that would work:

The Orion nebula, but with very vivid colors that I think could be done as a tattoo because it no longer is a mass of stars that create the picture but…[Read more]

What kind of sword, that in itself could also create another depth of meaning.Spanish/ pirate Cutlass, roman gladius, katana, or my personal favorite Japanese sword pistol:

Or it could be a bayonet if you had family that served in any wars. Normally if you have anything slightly cultural…[Read more]

I wonder what they would say about me being a 20 year old college student who’s addicted, and has a family that doesn’t care/ won’t disown him and hasn’t gone broke….

Im sorry sir but we aren’t looking for someone so, how do we say it? Boring and normal, we want someone crazy, and more of a failure. 😀

Its really person by person. For me, i didnt eat anything at all and went if for an all day, 5 hours of color on my back. I didnt have anything to eat the entire day until i got back to my house at like 9 at night. i didnt have a problem at all, but i did notice i felt like i was sick later that night, like my body was like ohhhhh shittttt what…[Read more]

Not to be retarded or anything, but what kind of ducks? Just knowing that can make everything go a lot smoother.

it 100% depends. I play to win, and wish to kill retarded teamates all the time but with all fo the annoying voices, i have it set up differently.

I dont go online alone just to play because thats boring so most of the time i am in a party where you can only hear my friends, but the game chat comes through the tv, so just in case someone says…[Read more]

I’m aware that paint has made it rubbish quality – sorry guys!

however where the red cross is, i would like a little picture, i think. i just don’t know what would go well there. also, i’m not too sure about the font, is it clear to read? or does anyone have any other…[Read more]

Oh yea, i know the uv rays are what causes the damage, sorta easier to just say taned area because that was only area affected. Ill just wait to see what it looks like when i loose the tan to see what the damage really is before getting it touched up

Thats sorta what i was thinking, i just knew sunscreen on a day old tattoo may not have been the best idea. The shirt looks like it blocked all of the sun due to the straight line of my farmers tan but ill just have to keep up with the sunscreen from now on.
thanks

For me its when i get an idea, and after i get it all worked out with how i want it. After that, its when i get a weird feeling like i should go set up an appointment now. So once i have the idea worked out enough i just do it whenever. Thats without having to worry about the cost at all, but now i am about to move from maryland to tampa for…[Read more]

awww crap you have to be 21. Makes sense seeing as its for an alcohol ad. Otherwise i would enter for the hell of it, seems like my phoenix and dragon could work nice for that…

i second just covering the entire thing with like a half sleeve or somethin close to one

I started in November after over a year of trying to figure out exactly what I wanted. From the beginning I looked as getting a tattoo as another art form that I can express myself like no one else could.

Since November my phoenix has gotten a friend, but most people only see a dragon and phoenix fighting/ in conflict, but to me it’s what each o…[Read more]

18 is perfectly fine, you can get all sorts of invasive plastic surgery once you turn 18, so just because this type of “surgery” is more visable why would you make a special rule for tattoo’s. I would have been slightly frustrated if i couldn’t get either of mine just because i wasnt 21, yet i could go get a nosejob or something stupid. 18 age…[Read more]

I really dont know about coloring the phoenix. The only reason got it was because of my pet phoenix, and its silver and black. If i had a golden phoenix instead i would most likely color it that way but i dont. i finally got a better body shot of my pet so you can see how there isnt that much color in him to begin with:

But i am all for…[Read more]

Meh, it doesnt really bother me that much. He said when its done healing the black scale shadowing should show through a little more to break it up a little more. i like how its not 100% traditional

went back and got him colored on friday. I just have a stupid bathroom mirror self portrait for now, but i will get better pictures after its all done healing.

This was taken like 48 hours after we finished, and after 9 hours of total work this is my dragon:

Depending on how the marks are laid out, you could use them as a part of the tattoo instead of just hiding them. If they are more spread out instead of a lot of lines right on top of each other you could create a prison within yourself tattoo. It could depict yourself as some sort of demon like thing (not like hey thats you hiding in there) being…[Read more]
