    I think my tattoo is pretty much healed. I just have to keep putting the lotion on it for a few more weeks and keep it out of the sun for about another month, then I’m good to go. Thanks for your help, everyone!

    Yeah, but I don’t think I really have the desire for full sleeves. I think they would’ve had to have been something that I wanted from the very start. Besides, having now been a tattoo fan for 7 years, I have identified and recognized the fact that I am more of a fan of individual/seperate pieces as opposed to sleeves. And that is not, in any way, a reflection of me saying that full sleeves are bad. They’re not bad at all. Ain’t a thing wrong with ’em. I’m just saying they’re not for me personally.

    Liking individual pieces doesn’t preclude you from getting a sleeve. Look at my album. With the exception of my back piece (obviously) and the tattoo that reads “Love. Peace. Metallica.”, all of them are on my right arm. With a little bit of black silhouetting in between the pieces, it’s roughly a 65% sleeve, and when I get enough cash to get my next tattoo, my right arm is going to be completely sleeved. Hell, I even know what next two on that arm are going to be, it’s just a matter of money.

    So, what I’m saying is, if you want a sleeve but like individual pieces, just make sure they are thematically the same, and have similar colors so they can come together as one cohesive whole.

    Love. Peace. Metallica.

    Thanks, but I really don’t have the desire for sleeves. I already have my next two tattoos chosen and am currently thinking about what my third one will be. Like you, it’s a matter of scrounging up the money.
