replied to the topic Searching for new matching, yet not matching at the same time tattoos… in the forum Tattoo Questions and Experiences 13 years, 2 months ago
We dont know anything about you, your relationship with your friend, or anything else for that matter. Only you know what is the best tattoo for you.
As for a suggestion, how about you get the torse half of a care bear thats been cut in half at the waist, and your friend get the lower abdomen and legs. That would be quite unique 😀

Where does all this gender specific placement crap come from. Reminds me of the belief that a guy with only his right ear pierced is gay.

replied to the topic White Ink in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 2 months ago
Thijnk of it this way, tattoos are something that should be easily seen and catch your eye. With white ink, it become rather difficult to see unless you look at it pretty closely. Why spend the money and go through the pain to get something that can barely be seen? It might seem like a cool idea, but really doesnt work out in the end for multiple reasons.

Dude if you really want the koi just get it. If you care that much about what the average person thinks than you are not ready for a tattoo period.

replied to the topic Foot tattoos in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 3 months ago
I had the top of my foot done a few winters ago. It sucked. I couldnt wear any footwear because the skin was very sensitive, and because it was winter, my feet were always cold. Definitely wait until summer comes around.

replied to the topic did i screw up? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 3 months ago
Sounds like you are ok, but NEVER, EVER cut, pick or pull a scab off of a tattoo. You could have easily pulled some of the ink out. Just continue putting lotion on it, but otherwise leave it alone. Dont pick any skin or scabs off at all, they will come off on their own. I wonder, did you tattoo artist give you any aftercare instructions?

replied to the topic idea for a tribal-inspired tattoo i'd like to get in the forum Tattoo Flash – Show Your Designs 13 years, 3 months ago
That size could work, but as for the design itself, im not even sure what it is tbh. I would suggest not getting any tribal though… but thats just me.

replied to the topic numbing gel – instillagel. advice please in the forum Tattoo Questions and Experiences 13 years, 3 months ago
Think of it this way: If you did use the numbing cream, everyone (maybe even you yourself) will think you are a “pussy” or “wuss”. Sounds kind of a macho-man thing to say, but its true. Part of the sort of “mystique” of large tattoos is the amount of pain you have to go through to complete it. I have a backpiece as well, and it hurt pretty bad,…[Read more]

replied to the topic Any tatts you regret???? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 3 months ago
LOL no i dont have any pics of it 😛 It was pretty small so there wasnt to much detail, but it was always good for a laugh. If only i had thought ahead and put it somewhere else…..

replied to the topic Do you agree with my sis about my potential tattoo? in the forum Tattoo Flash – Show Your Designs 13 years, 3 months ago
I agree with your sister. The the third picture itself just looks… awkward. I also dont like the three framed pictures idea for the reasons stated above, and the fact that it wouldnt really flow with your body (its going to have to be somewhat large to get all that detail in there). I think if you are intent on getting those pictures,…[Read more]

replied to the topic Where do you get your inspiration from in the forum Introduce Yourself 13 years, 3 months ago
A good thing to do is to get a list of addresses for all of the shops in your area, and visit them all (or their websites) and look at every portfolio you can get your hands on. Look for tattoos that really pop out and look similar to actual paintings. Tattoos can look very stunning, as much as any other medium, so dont settle for less.

replied to the topic Tattoo Photography in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 3 months ago
I like the pictures to a degree. However i think you have missed something with making everything else but the tattoos themselves black and grey. Let me try to explain.
Your pictures, while bold, dont give dare i say, and accurate representation of tattoos and the person wearing them. Right now, the tattoos look more like stickers or some kind of…[Read more]

replied to the topic Any tatts you regret???? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 3 months ago
Dont regret any of mine. I did have tiny butterfly (literally a stick of butter with wings) on my left arm, but was eventually covered over with my sleeve on that arm. Im glad i dont regret any, because nearly all of mine are large pieces that would be impossible to cover without massive amounts of lasering.

Get an amazing portrait/realism artist, and ditch the tribal and words, those will just clutter it up and look.. unpleasent.

replied to the topic Black out heels? in the forum Tattoo Questions and Experiences 13 years, 3 months ago
I agree with what others have said. The foot takes so much abuse compared to other areas of skin because its always moving and rubbing against things when you walk which everyone does alot of. Also, although it may be not a particularly painful or uncomfortable, it will be VERY difficult to heal properly, and colour will mostly likely come out…[Read more]

replied to the topic full sleeve medical related question in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 3 months ago
It doesnt really hurt more, like i said just feels different from normal skin/tissue. Take your finger nail and push into one… thats how it feels, minus the usual burning sensation when getting a tattoo.
And unless the lump is somehow not covered by skin of normal toughness and thickness, i dont think its going to burst… as cool as that would be 😀
