The only way I would be impressed with this thread would be if the title was “Miley Cyrus gets a 2X4 on the back of her head and then, coincidentally, “knighthawk” was there and fucked the shit out of her. Literally. NO, I mean there was actual shit on the curb.”

welcome to the forums, post up some pictures for sure.

Navy here as well, always good to hear from our brothers overseas.

who gives a fuck if she got some tattoo in her ear? so? what is this a ground breaking issue or something?

Scrubmuncher hit it right on the head.

My question is why bother numbing it away? The pain and blood are part of the experience. This ritualistic aspect of tattooing is part of what separates us from those who do not have ink. It doesn’t make us better, or worse, than anyone else, but it’s something that’s happened to us…[Read more]

i had my ears stretched to 00’s, and i had to get them sewn shut. after 3 months of waiting, the holes where still not any smaller, so i went and saw a plastic surgeon who closed them right up. you can hardly even tell i ever had gauges.

it took me about 6 months to get them up to 00. I did another step up every week to 2 weeks, with plenty of…[Read more]

Yeah, and definitely don’t warn her not to get the new ink done by the same person that did the old one!

Definitely dont tell her that. The artist is obviously extremely competent, and will create many great tattoos just like this one!

wow, very well done, the gold almost looks shiny!

Perhaps not, if you’re going to be nasty.

You fuckin guys kill me! The guy was asking if the image would be able to be put to skin, not what you thought of it.
Arni, you chastized me for this same move.
I tend to agree with you guys, but the answer to his question is YES it can be done on your skin just like the image.

it CAN…. but why would you want that on…[Read more]

Wow, lots of sensitive newbies here recently.

Seriously, right :confused:

Probably because most of them are still kids, right out of high school or something, and just aren’t quite mature enough to handle life yet. Sounds about right to me.

Either that or they’ve got a bad case of herpasyphilitus complex. It comes from…[Read more]

Because unlike you, I want to leave the thread here so you can actually have a chance of getting a real answer.

And mind your language.

quitters never win!

and heres a picture of a bunny with a pancake on its head. does that make your day a little better?

kanji is lame and unoriginal. no way to make it “your own,” no way to make it unique… especially the symbol for love. really?

that being said, most tattoo enthusiasts dislike kanji for those reasons.

you get something that is overdone, be ready to take some nasty comments on it. plain and simple.

glad to see another from the bay on the forum 🙂

welcome aboard

wow, if i could afford to travel like that to find an amazing artist i would. unfortunately, my budget causes me to stay local. that is a nice piece you have there, wear it proud

Thanks man! When do you start your 1/2 sleeve?

not sure just yet, im still looking at artists work, seen a few whos stuff i like, but they all have a slightly different style. it’ll probably happen within the next month

its turning out really good man, i like it a lot. props to the artist, really good work

its gonna have to be a half sleeve, starting from above my elbow to up over my shoulder (new navy regs make it pretty impossible to get anything new below your elbow). That said, i have a much more limited space, as i cant make it a full sleeve. im loving the storm theme idea, but needless to say i cant fit a ton of art in that space. im…[Read more]

Hi

There are 2 sides you need to clarify before getting inked.

The first is his level of artistic skills – have you seen his work on anybody else? Does he have a web site? Does he have a portfolio of work done?

Check out you can actually see his work before he does any – you simply might not like his style.

The second is…[Read more]

i know he didnt ask for opinions, but were just tryin to keep him from the regret in the future… everyone says they wont regret it when they get shit done, but when it it comes down to the future theres no way to know if you’ll still like it 20 years down the road, and even if you do like it if it will be acceptable for your workplace.

as for…[Read more]
