Knee ditch is no prize either.

Very colorful!

Welcome, Sean! (From South Central PA)

There are thousands of tattoo pictures in the gallery here.

Artist’s work at different speeds.

If the artist is really good, it’s fine to take some time for a great tattoo.

To some that is a long distance. There are those in this forum that have traveled thousands of miles for a specific tattoo artist.

You will have your sleeve for the rest of your life.

Sounds like it will be worth the travel time. (Who is the artist?)

Welcome to the forum.

Nice start.

Looking forward to seeing it colored.

Only in my mind.

Nice work!

Personally, I don’t care for Black & Gray, but this is sweet!

well that sucks ! they allow women to wear open shoes !!??!?!

Yes they do. I’ll have to dig out my kilt. That should make for a fun day.

After wearing these modified water shoes to work for over three years, summer, through winter, I was called into the boss’s office at the end of my shift to hear that for my own personal safety, I must not wear these any longer as they are not safe in an office environment.

I feel so much safer now.

I would go with something other than a consumable. I like to give clocks as gifts.

Look for a wild clock for her shop.

Even one personalized can be rather economical.

Did the same tattooer do your other tattoos?

Other than laser treatment’s I don’t know what to suggest.

(This is precisely why I wouldn’t consider a religious tattoo. I don’t want to try to explain it when I stand before the Lord)

Welcome Truman!

We like pictures!

Here too.

(although at my age I sort of expect my loads to be slower)

Has Erik worked on you before?

I have two people from different shops work on me in different areas. I’m thinking of both working together to join my back piece to the rest of the work.
The three of us have planning sessions on occasion.

Talk to Erik and Russ. It could be a dynamite piece.

Welcome Scott!

I turn 59 years old in March. I got my first tattoo in June, 2012.

Looks good to me.

Welcome to the forum!

the weird criminal minds dolop of skin and toenail hand flipping the bird thing between your ankles is just mind boggling.

As warped as my mind is I’m surprised that I totally missed that.

Thanks Dan!

I did Google “Mandelbrot” tattoos, and there are quite a few examples.

There are a lot of tattooers that don’t deal with clients that bring in their own artwork. I take artwork in simply as suggestions and let him create a tattoo in his own style.

If you’re looking for an opinion on your ideas, I’m afraid I would go along with the others.
