Hi

It can be done but… (aint there always)

White ink i s really sucky at staying in the skin and can fade within 18 mths – 3 years it would be a constant battle to keep the lillies ‘white’.

That said if you didnt mind a compromise on the colour yes with a good artist it can be achieved. If you wanted the blurred affect similar to the water…[Read more]

Hi Azure

You caught me out yes my brain is bottomless because actually I do not exist.

Yes that is right I am just a complex AI script that flies out with random bits of info in the hope to pass as a biological meatsack … I mean human.

Again I meant, Take Care

Hi

No it is fine I am always been told that I use humour to mask my upset but for me it is an outlet otherwise you would just sit in a corner wailing.

Besides 22 had a good send off and burial. He was by far my best pet even though he ‘adopted’ me.

Welcome to the forum.

You are doing the right thing ink is for life so take your time on what you want. I have planned my backpiece I am getting for 7 years. 🙂

Hi Justin

I love that piece. Damn that is some fine ink – I really love big cat tattoos.
Wear that with pride.

Hi Azure

Classic Edwardian/Victorian cherub you have there.
The eyes were always turned up away from the viewer looking towards heaven.

Anyhow I digress..

On such a detailed piece if you went lined it would have to be very bold to stop the blur with age. I would personally;

Bold out the the shape then use subtle grey shading to colour where it…[Read more]

Hi Hockey

I am not 100% in Latin anymore as it has been over 10 years since I studied it and had little use for it since then.

That is why I would recommend you check it as memory and books only take you so far.

As for the 100% meaning in Latin because English is so immersed in the root of Greek, Latin, French you would not lose the meaning if…[Read more]

I figured you might be but as the world is full of strange and wonderful ppl you can never be too sure or careful 😀

Hi Seven

Welcome to the forum.
Looking forward to seeing your existing ink and new ideas.

Hi Viper

Some nice re-colour/shade of your tats done. Really brings out the linework.
I love the pirate theme.

Hi

Damn I had forgotten how much I hate latin lol 😀

Ok for the first quote the thing to remember is that ‘you/your’ has several words in latin depending on whether it is a pronoun or adjective and partive or objective.

In plain english you have to decide whether ‘your’ is something that you are a part of (eg group family belief)

Partitive -…[Read more]

Hi Lulbert

Just save picture as and download.
If not just screen print the picture take to your artist and say I want this in black.

It is quite a basic image for any experienced artist and they should not have any problem replicating it.

Hi Tim

Yes I undertsand too much tribal and you would lose the dragon shape within it.

There are 3 extension styles I can picture;

1. A continuation from the bottom of the tattoo that links in the top tattoo.

2. A continuation that forms a frame around the dragon and runs down the edges to link up with the rest of the sleeve.

3. Keeping the…[Read more]

Hi
Welcome to the forum and looking forward to seeing your ink.
Are you going for a themed body suit or each one a separate piece?

Thanks
Matthew

Hi

My advice is simple get it all shaved off.
Nobody gives a damn about baldness and many women (and men) prefer shaven headed men.

I regulary shave all my hair off and many ppl state that I actually look better without hair than with a lengthy mop of twisted hair.

The tattoo would only draw attention to it and implants are very expensive and…[Read more]

Lol

The stuff I have done by 20-222 I am trying to live down or forget.

My one regret is that I did not do a tour of the states with my brother before he died. I had the chance but there was a really hot woman I was dating and I thought I had all the time in the world to do it.

I was wrong. 🙁

I did the tour aged 31 in his memory but whatever…[Read more]

Hi John

Sorry to hear about the scam 🙁

Can you not take them to a small claims court as they have sold you a product that is not as described in the advert? (From the UK so maybe different laws in USA).

Or could you visit them in person to ‘discuss’ the matter?

Hi Hockey

Yes I believe in God and no I am not offended – you can believe or disbelieve as much as you like.

I will get my latin dictionary and grammar books out and see if I can sort you some translations ( I used to study latin but years back so need the refresher) – although it is late here so will likely be tomorrow.

Anyhow Take Care
Matthew
