I actually like your sleeves. 🙂

So you’re saying that since the tiger isn’t good at all, the rest is crap by default?

Unless you get some half-assed artist to do it. Then it might need a background and a foreground!

I believe they call them thing’s “Cover-Up’s” :p

Sorry, yes, the banner. I thought it looked like a wooden platter or something.

And don’t tear yourself up over the puzzle bit. If you spend the rest of your life critqueing your piece you’ll go bonkers 🙂

No. You’re the only person that sees that.

Wow you guys brutilised this tattoo.

Correction: The tattooist brutalized that tattoo. We’re just commenting on it 🙂

You’re right, it might be salvaged. But not by this artist.

Much easier 🙂

Why did you decide to make the platter half out of puzzle pieces?

It appears fine in the post above… maybe you can read it from that pic, but it’s way too small for me, even with my glasses on 🙂

The problem with my vision is that it’s pretty dark, and I’m not sure that’s exactly what you’re going for with this tattoo. IMO, memorial tattoos should be positive.

I like your idea though, and think it’s tons better than using the lyrics.

The tattoo includes a QR code, which is basically a multi-dimentional barcode, which iPhones and Android phones can read and interpret. The phone reads the QR code and displays whatever media is hidden behind that QR code (on the internet).

It’s about as useful in customer-grade applications as warts are on pigs, and is the new ‘fab’ to sweep…[Read more]

Not that I can read Kanji at all, but there’s no way to read that from that picture.

That background completely ruins that picture. Why does it need a background? The mask is is very detailed and should work well on it’s own.

Oh, and Dimmu borgir is awesome 😀

If you are talking about the pictures where several are actually fitted and stretched together, I actually hate those images because they distort the perspectives and give (to me) worse outcome than just showing several angles in several pictures.

As for the program, yes that stuff is done in programs like Photoshop, but there are free…[Read more]

Oy, that ink is bad :S

You should just bring both, and even more if you find them. Let the artist do what he thinks best, but supply him with good material to work from.

yeah maybe you go in to get your arm done and get your chest shaved but not me buddy.

No… you go in to have some part of you tattooed and THAT part is shaved.. usually by a man, since they are the prevailing gender in the field.

Feet and hands will regenerate the skin at a much higher rate than the rest of the body. If you want to maximize the lifespan of your tattoos, don’t do it on those places 🙂 Most anywhere else should be about the same though.

Umh… that’s pretty much what happens with every tattoo 🙂

I have no comment on Michigan artists, but I just wanted to say that that is one of the nicest paw prints I have ever seen. I’m loving it 🙂
