That would be awesome, especially if said shop had online ordering too and would ship outside the UK. We can’t get any Tattoo Goo in Iceland and I’d really like to try some of their products.

Not being an artist I have no comment in the feasibility of your idea, but I just had to say GODDAMN that artist is good, and no wonder he’s a prick! People that are this good can afford being pricks. JP (Iceland’s finest, and has a somewhat similar style, only in B/G) is like that too… a bloody annoying selective prick who refuses to to…[Read more]

Then it’d be weekly for a time and then end. It would still have served it’s purpose 🙂

A Lara Croft tat would be hot. So many possibilities.

Actually, Lara Croft was just made to be a pinup.. interesting idea you got there 😀

Is it fondling itself?

are there any artist here that can photoshop or edit my picture to make it look better?

And what would that accomplish? The tattoo is still messed up on your back even though someone fixes the picture for you.

I guess it would be something commemorating all the good times I’ve had with video games.

Personally I’d say that’s exactly why you need to spend some time on designing this and deciding for yourself which characters to choose. We can’t tell you which characters have brought you good times. Only you can do that.

For me, this symbol represents “No hesitation” all the way.

Is means the wearer didn’t hesitate to walk into a tattoo shop and pick the first ink on the wall, then didn’t hesitate to pay good money to have it put on him/herself.

That sounds like a pretty interesting idea there. I might even steal it for some other forums I’m on 🙂

And on a similar note, in Harry Potter the Dementors of Azkaban are very dark, skeletony creatures with no visible face.

Aaawww… you poor thing! How about I take that phone from you.. so you don’t have to suffer using it. I’ll find good use for it :p

Well, you can easily get sunburned through thin shirts and dresses and the like, so I would assume that tattoos will require high SPF sunblock even WITH the long sleeves.

For me, my tattoos are not meant to be seen in the normal work enviroment, but I would never try hiding them outside the workplace. I guess I’d rather use sunblock and touch-up…[Read more]

Also, stretchmarks can be hard to hide with a tattoo.

Hmm.. I have the same problem (overweight-created stretchmarks) and I never thought about that… that’s going to mess a bit with my designs 🙁 Thanks for the info.

I completely agree with KnightHawk, and I must say I nearly pissed myself laughing when I read his No.5, because that was exactly my first instinct for an answer too 😀

Well, different artists do different things with different inks, which in turn work differently on different people. Yours may not fade as much as mine or it may fade even more. As they say in the adverts, results may vary 😀

A good thing about ink, though, is that if it’s too dark you can always just tan it away 😉

I’ve never had a touch up but I assume that it’s the same needle going into the same skin at the place as the last time that the pain would be the same. Unless the process of getting a tat damages nerves theres no reason for it not to hurt so bad.

Well, the way I understand it the tattoo creates (or rather the body does)…[Read more]

stupid question I know… Does getting a tattoo touched up hurt more than
getting it done the first time?

“There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers!” 🙂

Not a stupid question at all. I am very interested in the answer myself.

Quite welcome.

Actually, the second picture is taken only 5 months after I got the ink. I had been in the sun a bit over the spring/summer while swimming but very little direct sun hit the ink in that time.

You mean, because in real life Lilies are bigger than Forget Me Nots?
