definately agree with matthew there, when it comes to tribal, you have to get it fitted to your body, to make sure all the lines and curves are exactly where they should be in relation to your shape, otherwise your gonna have a poor looking piece..
as for the picture, i’m pretty certain thats not real, it looks photoshopped on…its cool looking, for your first tattoo its a huge project so maybe break it up and do it piece at a time….and be warned tattooing your rib cage is one of the most painfull things i’ve experienced, not to put you off, just to let you now, its a strange sensation but as they say no pain no gain! my rib cage took 8 hours of pain, worth it though! 🙂
keep us posted!

I have seen that model pic on so many websites and basically i think it is eyecandy for girls (and some boys) but I was seriously wondring if that is a real tattoo or if it has been painted on a model for the shot.
The model’s name is Anthony Lothar, and he’s my wife’s online friend. Ripped ass mother fucker texts dirty things to my wife on my cell phone fairly often, and the only thing that keeps me from going after him with a baseball bat is that he’s English, and lives in London.
At any rate, he does not have a single tattoo, and has informed my wife I am a freak for my abundance of them. The asshole.
Oh, funny story. The guy is such eyecandy that my wife’s beautiful, 18 year old virgin friend, who’s never even kissed a guy, texted him on my cell phone honestly offering him her virginity the next time he’s in NYC if he’d buy her plane ticket.
….god I hate him.
As for the real point of this discussion, I’ve seen alot of people go from no ink to body suits, and they rarely regret it. I personally say if you’re passionate for it, go for it. Small tribal pieces rarely look good, but when they’re this sized and well done, they can kick you right in the balls, and say “I’m a goddamn killer piece of ink mother fucker!”. I say follow Matthew’s advice, and go for it man, because no matter how much you try, no two pieces of tribals are really the same.
Love. Peace. Metallica.
Erm, The sitting was about an hour and half.
Haha.. thing is i discovered i didn’t have a very good tollerance to pain.
Anyway.. I think it was really worth it.
Next session in about a weeks time.
