looks good, can’t wait to see it finished.

You are better off going with your bodies own natural endorphines, those things are good for a nice three hours. Although any work being done after that three hour mark will not be much fun.

Oh, and why not have your artist draw up a unique piece for you instead of using an internet download. Tattooing really can be an artform. And like any art,…[Read more]

Construtive critisism? What’s to critisize? It’s stunning. So will it be finished when the giesha is completed or do you have plans for the tiny bit of space left between her and the dragon?

so far so good, keep us updated. It is always interesting to watch the progress of a tattoo.

You can all kinds of things around a koi if you want a asian themed sleeve. I don’t even think a cover up would be necissary unless you actually want to put something over it.

Well the hair question is one of personal taste and probably depends on just how hairy your arms are. Personally I don’t like the looks of a shaggy tattoo and a lot of others feel the same. That’s why a lot of men shave their tattoos. I believe there was even a thread on here discussing waxing them lol. As far as the stomach goes, that’s also…[Read more]

As well you should be very happy, that is a very nice looking piece.

In addition to what Gym said the 5 day mark is probably a good time to go from the Bep and switch to a non scented lotion. I usually make that switch after the 3rd day myself.

Although it shouldn’t really bother me, it is a pet peeve of mine as well. Currently I’m in the process of getting a “sleeve” done but since I”m stopping a few inches from my wrist can I still call it a sleeve? 😀

Sure it counts as a sleeve, just think of it as buying a shirt that doesn’t quite fit:p A sleeve is a very…[Read more]

I’d rather schedual an apointment and go into a shop. But then again crowds make me antsy.

Oh, and that is a very nice piece Ontwo

wow, that pops even more now, I love it.

To me the typical orange and yellow kois are overdone. Although I still appreciate the excellent work that goes into them and admire them for that reason. On the other hand, kois that incorporate other colors I really like. I saw a black and red one that I just fell in love with. Now I’m debating getting a black and pink koi done in that cutsey…[Read more]

good work so far, going to look great when it’s finished.

It is nice work and by all means use it as inspiration. But it doesn’t look like a piece of flash to me which means he had the piece custom drawn for him. Copying it is just bad form. Honestly, all my pieces are custom drawn and if I ever saw one of them on someone else my first impulse would be to strangle the b%@ch. A better option is to find an…[Read more]

I think they look good as well. But I also understand that just because something looks good doesn’t mean it’s what you wanted. Something that extends them back over your shoulders might look good.

Nice, your artist did an excellent job on the tattoo and you did a great job with your after care. The finished product is something to be very proud of.

I love the idea and the saying. Certainly hope someone can help you out with the translation because that’s a tattoo I would like to see some pics of when it’s finished.

Is it just me or does that trout look like it’s about to start taking names and kicking @ss? My compliments on a beautifull piece.

That’s definately different. I like the idea of celebrating the diverse influences in your life. I think I would do it with something a bit more serious myself, but that’s just me.

Hi, I don’t know a lot about cover ups. But I do know that those who do will ask to see a picture so that they can give you the best advise.
