It is different for everyone.
I’m type 2 (no idea if that makes a difference at all) and I have to say that my healing does go a bit slower, but it’s not so bad. And that’s the thing.

Your friend should look at how her body usually reacts to…[Read more]

Will do.
I have to say I’m very impressed with some of the work at Feline, especially Gavin’s work appeals to me. So I’ll have a look there. Don’t know when yet (full agenda for a while), but this shop is at the top of my list right now.

I’ve had a look and it looks really good, but I really don’t have the time to get this all sorted before the end of March. The design still has to be made. It’s only in my head right now.

I hope you find a new artist with a similar style. If so, I will definitely come over to have a look.

What kind of help do you expect? I guess you understand it’s not your body so you can’t really do much about it. However, if it bothers you that much, you should tell him. Hiding how you feel will definitely not help.

I just bought Chinese Democracy – It is good but 15 years or so to make was a longtime.

This tattoo was done in the early nineties, so it doesn’t look like Axl looks now. Actually, I don’t like the way he looks now.

The tulips are near Amsterdam, so just going to Amsterdam won’t help. You obviously want to go to Amsterdam because of the Sex Museum.

By the way…getting drugs easily is a myth…has been for years. Just thought I’d throw that into the group. :p

I get that remark a lot and you’re wrong. When I have found it, I’ll scan the photo with the tat and the photo it’s based on and put it on here as well.

Oh wait, I just realised, my tattoo doesn’t look like Axl anymore. 😉

She also didn’t have any pain during the healing process at all. She just talked funny for a day of which I took complete advantage. 😀

The Adidas stripes I did because I’m an Adidas fan. Don’t know why, that just happened. And besides, it looks good on a wrist.

And I’m not a dude, thank you. 😉

I guess you can imagine the kind of remarks you get when you have Axl on your right shoulder…
It honestly doesn’t really bother me, I’m just used to people thinking I’m really weird.

Eventhough I said the photos are bad, I guess they will do to give you an…[Read more]

I have one quite big tat of Gary Oldman. It’s based on the film Dracula he did, so the three brides are on there as well. Thought up the combination myself, so it’s a unique tat.
That’s on my back on the left.

On the right I have Axl Rose (yeah, laugh!).
I have to say that the artist…[Read more]

My previous tattoo artist always covered my new tats with plastic (with tiny holes in it so the skin can breathe) and I’ve copied that. Usually that resulted in the tat healing within 4 or 5 days.
It can be a hassle to have the plastic on you (I’m talking cling foil here), but it’s worth it, I think.

Oh well…
Think what you want, but I have two and intend to have another someday (when I can finally go to the USA and have the money together).

To me tattoos represent moments in my life and therefore, no matter who or what the subject is, it’s ok if things change. My past…[Read more]
