    Hi friends, i found that tatoo on web: http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/1074/liontattoom1.jpg

    and have some questions.

    We can see the high quality of that tattoo, its a hard tattoo to do ? It’s require a good professional right?
    How many time take this tatoo to be made in hours?

    And some people telling me that that tatoo will loose colors and get ugly, this depend of quality of paint and self care right?

    Thanks

    did you use an online translator to type that message?

    anyway, yea that is a very nice looking tattoo, and yea it woudl take a talented professional
    the amount of hours depends on the artist, some work faster than others

    it will fade a little, but it doesnt mean it will get ugly, and its Ink, not paint… lol

    Color portraits are pretty difficult, so you’ll need to check around before you get it. Not everyone can do them, so if it isn’t done properly; it will look pretty weak.

    So make sure you check out portfolios for color portraits.

    Thanks, yes sorry for english.

    Another question, about price, how much a tatoo like that would cost in a good place?

    Today i visited a shop and the guy said that he will take nearly 6~8 hours to do this ink tatoo

    Yes its very nice picture, i will make here with this guy: Look his works please. He is considered one of the bests of my city and country.

    Well, they guy that will tattoo me said:
    I can make this tattoo well done exactly same, but have one problem:
    Probably the colors in 5 years will get ugly and can misture so i have another way to do that tattoo:

    Make this in black, grey, white, etc, so it will become better and no risk when your skin get old

    Hi

    You get colour fade and a slight blur in all tattoos as you age no matter the colour.

    Black does hold up slightly better than some other pigments but depends on your health, age of skin, sun exposure etc.

    As for the cost I would set aside around $1000 as can easily cost that with a detailed piece.

    Thanks a lot, sometimes i go to the Sun, but i use always solar protector..
    But i think that i won’t make that tatoo with all colors.
    I will agree with guy that will tattoo me, he told will make with black and grey.
    So i will see if i like and make tattoo.

    Thanks

    Hi Tana

    Yes diabetes can effect the healing of a tattoo – you have to make sure they are on top of their sugar intake as otherwise the immune system becomes worn down as it tries to deal with glacemia.

    It is nothing major but something they have to take into account.

    Take Care

    i will have a word with him when i see him next 🙁
    he has a small tattoo of a cross and had no problems but a sleeve might be alot for his body to take unless he does it in smaller sessions (1 hour a time maybe )

    thanks guys !
