Wow thats quite the statement. I’m sure sometime down the road you’ll get some heat for it from other races. You know the usual wannabee, or you wish you were black. Probably get some heat from white people as well. Be hey its your skin.

Why not just tattoo your whole body black?

I was also wondering, do you guys think the word fate looks a bit crooked or bigger than the rest of the lettering?

Its kind of hard to tell with the angle given

Looks sweet, really like the added green!

Haha this is weird, in the other thread the OP made half the people were saying he should add more to it. Stop confusing the poor man! 🙂

I agree. Many people stated it looks to plain or needs something added. Now people are saying leave it.:confused:

I’m sure a good artist can come up with something simple, yet…[Read more]

If I do and get these tattoos how are people going to judge me in your opinion?

I am getting a job with some relation shortly so I’m okay for jobs, but what do you mean it will ruin my life?

For example :

If I go into McDonalds or walk down my local street do you think people are going to stare and judge me before…[Read more]

It’s amazing how many different aftercare procedures there are. I was informed to wash mine with antibacterial soap 3-4 times a day for 7 days, and apply aquaphor once my skin dried. After 7 days I could switch to a normal lotion.

I agree! Now I hear people say NOT to use anti bacterial soap..WTF! I’ll stick with…[Read more]

Looks nice, welcome to the forum!

I like it,Are you planning on adding any art to it or leaving it as is?
I think it looks abit like a newspaper title on it’s own.

Well thats what I was kind of thinking. Was waiting for someone else to say it. 🙂

Not to shabby

damn so many options! I am kind of skeptical about waxing now, as some have stated over time it could do some damage to the tattoo cause it goes so deep. I wonder how that veet really works, and if it does at all? One way to find out…

Thanks much everyone, I’m really excited about it. Once all healed I may use my better camera with a flash see if they turn out better!

Veet FTW!!!

hmm think that stuff actually works?

everyone heals different, certain parts takes up to 4 weeks for me. Some less and some more. Just be patient.

As I get to the 2 weeks, I only wash it about once a day, I personally believe at that stage theres less chance of an infection as its mostly peeling. And I try to be very careful and not taking any skin off by accident. I apply lotion…[Read more]

Never less than once a week though.

Thing is, for the first day or two after you shave, assuming you lotioned right after, your tattoos…[Read more]

I’m a fucking sasquatch. If I didn’t shave my arms once a week you wouldn’t never be able to see my ink. Ditto my back.

Very nice work! As far as getting more detail out of black/white it all depends on what it is, and whos doing it. My left arm is mostly black,grays, and some greenish grays. While my other sleeve is going to be color and I’m glad I went that route with the theme I got going.

In my opinion a space sleeve should be very bright colors mixed in…[Read more]

looks awsome!

I told my artist that I wanted a tough looking angel, he came up with a roman-greek looking one that I really liked. Same goes with the demon, I wanted him to be crazy mean looking, I can’t wait to see him all filled in with color.

My parents always forced my siblings and myself to go to church EVERY sunday. I told them when I get older I…[Read more]
