Blue looks awesome with black ink too

I read the entire post; I just disagree with some of the concepts, such as it being a poor utilization of space. It’s not poor utilization if there’s nothing else the individual would rather have. Whether or not it lends itself to anatomy (or, at least some parts) is personal opinion. Text is pretty valued as an art…[Read more]

Good luck in basic!

Thank you, hopefully it will go by fast lol

To be honest, although it’s well done I don’t like the one above either. Seems like a waste of space to me.

And Zach, if you are generally against long text tattoos but an image isn’t coming to you yet, I think you should wat and keep thinking about it. Don’t settle for something that you wouldn’t normally get just because…[Read more]

That is an awesome piece of ink…

Absolutely. My tattooist was pretty candid and said she was uncomfortable going much smaller. And the fine details of the text are beautiful; she really did a great job. I don’t know how big you are, but I’m pear-shaped and a size 2 – My upper body just doesn’t offer a lot of room.

Like Adler said, if you have to…[Read more]

I’m totally against long text tattoos. In my opinion text looks best as a few word compliment to an image and not as a stand alone tattoo. To me, long text tattoos are unimaginative and lack artistic creativity and have no aesthetic appearance, and typically the characters need to be small and cramped and will not stand up…[Read more]

It’s hard understanding the translation but I am getting that you want to know if getting both of the eyes of Horus had any significant meaning?

You bet your fur. It’s a poor quality picture, but here it is:

It really is pretty small, but I’m a smaller person so it looks a little large.

That looks well done, I guess the font of the text will play a huge role as well.. But the thing is this has about 4 times as many words as yours and that is what I am unsure about

I have an entire stanza in Tengwar, so I think it’s a brilliant idea.

I may be slightly biased.

Do you have a picture of it? I’ve been getting ideas off of Google, but I still don’t know how I feel about text tattoos in general.. That may be me being biased as well but I am opening up.. I have found stronger images…[Read more]

Ok, so I have my first tattoo on my upper back (Circular design). My plan is to get a second circular design below the first one in a smaller diameter, I need advice on how to make both tattoos “flow” together, the second is a phoenix with some red on it, should I shade the first tattoo with some red? Any ideas? Anyone…[Read more]

I think that is damn cool, I wonder how far down it goes though

Heat and sweat will often make my elbows and knees break out into red and itchy bumps, and as long as I don’t scratch them they will be gone in a few hours..

They make awesome ointments for it that I use regularly, just look for anything with Pramoxine Hydrochloride in it. It will usually say Eczema cream, but my favorite is the brand Dermarest,…[Read more]

I am not seeing any red bumps, but a lot of dry skin.. Do you have eczema?

I have heard in some cases of people with eczema that it starts affecting a newly tattooed area..

I’ve got it on my elbows and knees and this is what it looks like to me, and of course, this is just an un-professional opinion.

The appointment with a dermatologist most…[Read more]

Welcome once and for all

That’s one hell of a side piece! All your tattoos look well done man, congratulations

Pay a profession to laser it off, find a job, and live your life!!

I just don’t see how that drawing could turn into a good tattoo.. Especially a sleeve man.. It just looks like a random design, with a random jelly fish, sun, and fish..

Think about this before you decide because there are a hell of a lot better designs and ideas for a sleeve then what I’ve seen from your album.

Don’t take it the wrong way, but…[Read more]

Let the artists jam out to whatever makes them the most comfortable while doing the tattoo.. You’re not paying them to listen to the music you like, you’re paying them for their art..

As far as breaks go, take them if you need it.. But I like not taking breaks especially during larger pieces because eventually the area will just become numb,…[Read more]

We need a picture man
