I have a Star Wars tattoo myself, so I’m all for nerdy tattoos. I just think it can be pulled of in a much cooler way 🙂

I’m not saying you need to find someone with tattoos, change your life, social circle etc, but if your friends are mainly more conservative and you already know that you’re not going to find anyone interesting for you within their expanded social circle, at work, where you usually go, it might be a good idea to look other places 🙂
And the whole…[Read more]

Oh, now this is a kind of fun topic! I think it is indeed easier for guys, and I don’t know how many times I get frustrated by seeing these hot guys with beautiful tattoos, date little blondes who might have a trampstamp. Where is the love for heavily tattooed women?? Anyways.

It’s never been much of an issue for me, but that might be because I…[Read more]

Yesyesyes! In a fulltime job you should have no trouble surviving without overtime… Sick/vacation benefits shouldn’t even be a question :S
Over here, you get 12% of your total pay the previous year in June, so you can afford to have a vacation. And if you get sick, you still get paid. More than 17 days and the state pays. I think it pays what…[Read more]

Welcome, and congrats on the healing 🙂
I got out of a serious eating disorder myself a few years ago, + some other stuff. When I first decided on getting better, I went ahead and filled up an entire arm with things that make me happy. I got a knuckle duster with hearts in the “finger holes”, which to me is the “Love, not hate” tattoo for me,…[Read more]

Original? No way. As a tattoo? Please don’t.

Prints? Not sure about exactly that one, but you can buy prints off his webpage; Last Rites Merchandise

Last Rites also functions as a gallery, so every once in a while you might get the chance to buy a painting etc. Contact the shop for info on just that.

Make sure you get a good nights sleep and that you have a decent meal before going in. Bring with you a soda, some candy, something to keep your blood pressure up 🙂
A lot of people actually get cold during longer sittings, I do as well. Might be because I live in winter wonderland though. But I know a small dose of painkillers can help with that,…[Read more]

Try again.

When it comes to very good artists, most of them will have a lot to do. If you even HINT at just wanting them to draw something so you can compare to what others artists are drawing for you… Well, to be perfectly honest? Some of them will tell you to fuck off. Drawing a full backpiece takes a long time, depending on the amount of detail or how…[Read more]

Gonna need to see a picture first.

And really? You got married, your wife has been bugging you for ages, and you haven’t done anything yet? Man. I wouldn’t even accept a ring from a man who still had his ex’ name on him. Patient woman you got there :p

Is it upside down…?

Not sure when my job description started to include looking for a good stripper or someone to make a trampstamp ass cake, but my day sure got a lot more fun!

what style are you looking for?

Considering the fact that I have a ridiculous amount of ideas, I’m not really looking into ONE style. Everything but japanese and realistic, really. Been hoping for Tim Kern, and right now I’m on the “I’ll call you if anything opens up”-list. So anyone amazing, most likely color, new…[Read more]

Yep, just relax. I’ve had tattoos look worse. Don’t worry about putting lotion on it, it’s been so long now that it’s no risk really. Use something free of perfume etc, can also help with itching 🙂
The problem with getting tattooed by an artist you don’t really know much about, is that its hard to tell how its going to heal. Can’t tell you if…[Read more]

I actually just tried to get in with Gene myself, but all booked up! Looks like I might be getting in with Brian who works in the same shop though 🙂 Both great artists.

Many of these top artists will have quite the waiting list, so a good idea can be that if you know you’re travelling to where they are sometime in the future, maybe even a year…[Read more]

Hobbies? What’s that? 😛

Usually I’m so backed up with school and work ( I’m doing a double degree and working 60%), so I don’t really have a life most of the year.. Now during summer I only have work though. I do a bit of artsy stuff. I paint, draw, make hand painted t-shirt designs (actually bringing in some extra cash!), create some cosplay…[Read more]

Your little girl is beautiful, by the way.

As a tattoo.. I love the idea of her on the carousel horse! The pic is a bit blurry, so if you’ve got other pictures of her with that smile, bring them along to your artist! Any picture that shows her face will help. I can see this working very well as a big piece, with her on the horse, in a color,…[Read more]

I think having a tattoo of your daughter on the carousel sounds like a beautiful idea 🙂 Clearly the background would have to be changed, and maybe switch up some minor things, but I like the concept! And I’d go for all of it in color 🙂
Sounds much sweeter and nicer than many many other children-tattoos 🙂

Indeed. I just came back from Scandinavia!

Expensive as fuck and every woman is 6 feet tall with legs up to her neck lol

Hahah, sounds about right. Except I’m tiny, about the size of a hobbit. So not all of us are huge! Haha
