Nor me unless those little multi coloured boxes are the tattoo 🙂

Let’s be honest, we’ve seen worse on here 😀

It’s certainly a big problem for two of my local guys, Dan Chase and David Corden. They both close their books regularly but are still booked out a long way (over a Year in Davids case)

Still, nice position to be in, being booked a Month and a half means that your work is (quite rightly) sought after especially as an apprentice.
I appreciate it…[Read more]

You’re really nailing it, can’t wait to see how good you are in a few Years time.
Please, please just promise to give me a booking when you have a waiting list measured in Years!

To be perfectly honest dude, I don’t think you are quite ready yet.
I wanted one (on and off) since I was 18 but wasn’t ready to get one until recently (I’m nearly 40 now)

Just remember the obvious, they don’t wash off, don’t get it wrong!

Good luck 🙂

Well, although it’s difficult to see from the picture, I believe it’s quite small, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to cover it up. I would think that you’d need something at least 3-4 times bigger in order for a cover-up job to not look like crap.

Likewise, I don’t believe it can really be fixed. It would only get worse.

Have you thought about…[Read more]

For me, the first place to start is to just decide what KIND of tattoos you like and don’t like. Once you’ve narrowed that down, your own internal search mechanism becomes more focused and you find it easier to find things that you like. Once you’ve gotten a good grasp of what you like, you can start researching artists that specialize in that,…[Read more]

Although Chen’s reply was unnecessarily rude, he is right that we don’t exactly welcome scratchers in here.

That being said, I’d be very interested to see the quality of your work. You see, you make two points that I believe to be completely erroneous.

Firstly, you say that “if you really dig deep you will find that the average tattoo artist got…[Read more]

It doesn’t look like an imperfection to me although it is. Looks like he is spouting something, maybe water lol

Oh, how young you are. It’s an 8-bit tattoo. 8-bit water would never look anything like that 😀

Cornishtiger, our resident laser expert, can probably give you a rough guesstimate for a price, but I’d think it shouldn’t be too expensive. Seeing as it’s so tiny,(surely they must charge (relatively thinking) per inch or square inch or something like that) it can’t take more than a couple of seconds each session and thus can’t be too expensive…[Read more]

I would leave the line, it definitely has a story behind it lol

Which would be better… a story and a perfect tattoo or a story and a botched tattoo? The story will be there regardless :p

8-bit tattoos can be awesome. Please post some pics 🙂

Lovely story, and definitely something that helps you remember that tattoo 🙂

Have you considered just getting the mistake lasered (it can’t be very dark or wide since it was just one scratch) and then continue on with the tattoo sans mistake?

Looks like a trip to Poland is in order next Year then!

I think you make a good point there O6, just seems crazy though when it’s something that’s indelibly ingrained in your skin.
I only drive old crap, I just don’t see the point (for my purposes) in driving something nice but then I don’t have to walk around with it fixed to my arm for the rest of my life 😀

Some people are really proud of their…[Read more]

They’re a lot nicer about it here than on the other forum lol

Looks well done, if you’re happy with it then congratulations 😎

Superb 😎

I’d not come across instagram before, just going to look into it now 🙂

EDIT: Got it, yup, it’s looking fantastic, congratulations on it so far 🙂

What he has done wrong is skirted a proper apprenticeship and reaped the rewards for doing so. The blowouts are from being too heavy-handed. The poor line work is due to a lack of practice and maybe an unsteady hand as well. The disproportionate drawings, poor shading, and so forth are due to lack of practice. He needs…[Read more]
