Ended up going for another design which I had been thinking about. Really pleased with it. Forgot how much tattoos hurt! Thinking of getting a bigger one with colour on my ribs next, with a musical theme. Thought on this? (whether positive or negative!)

Thanks for the reply Shorty, much appreciated. So basically your saying if i get a good tattooist I should be ok on the short term, so thats cool. I was also wondering if there could be problems with such thin lines on the long term? Someone told me that it would be ok at the start but a few years down the line it will spread (as all tattoos do) but this will be more of a problem for a tattoo like the one I have chosen. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.
