Welcome,
There are plenty of Aussies here.

If you really don’t like it cover it. You may need a zap with a laser, but it still looks OK.

If you already have a tattoo on your wrist I assume you don’t mind having visible ink. I had 2 half sleeves Shoulder to elbow (now only 1) as you are going a even further, keep going into a full sleeve or at least make it easy to extend. I intend to get rid of my other half sleeve next year, I will then have 2 full sleeves. As for LASER I don’t…[Read more]

Have a look at the simpler designs that are a few years old, they don’t look that great. The larger more complex designs look much better over time. Unless you turn into the Hulk stretching won’t be a problem. I think my arms looked bigger after a lot of ink. Print out a few designs and wrap them around your arm and have a look in the mirror,…[Read more]

Your tattoo looks great and your idea is very cleaver, however I don’t think it would work that well as you have a lot of ink, so the other would have very little ink and may be difficult to see what is going on. You could always do another opposite, come up with a design that where the current skeleton is, it becomes a tree and the tree becomes…[Read more]

I have a dragon on my back and I’m pretty certain I have never been a dragon nor ever will be! I think it’s pretty obvious by the text you are NOT in the 82nd. A very personal choice. Is it your brother doesn’t like tattoos in general, annoyed he didn’t think of it first. No one here can advise you to your family relationships, but I’m certain…[Read more]

Very nice! Still plenty of chest available for more ink. I guess no thin white business shirts for work:D

Where in OZ do you live?
Nice Sleeve.

Very nice. It’s going to look great.

I’m impressed. I’m too much of wimp to even consider a tattoo where I couldn’t hide it if I needed to (like at work). You have my respect (and envy). Can’t wait to see more.

That is very impressive. You should be proud of it.

It looks good. Unlike some here I like a good triabal and that is a good tribal congratulations

Wow what a story! That is the most amazing one I have heard.
I would talk to some tattooists and see if they can fix it otherwise get that line LASERed and with that story you should get a great discount. Another tattooist will not have a problem finishing it off under those circumstances.

Pretty much, I wouldn’t worry about sterilisation questions, until you decide, this is the place for you. Qualifications are irrelevent.

You run the risk of being lumped with the fanatics and getting something that may have a totally different meaning, but it doesn’t really matter. How many people with Kanji tattoos can speak Japanese?

That is cheap it cost $AU80 to 3/4 fill a small sedan, with predictions of over $AU100 before the end of the year

The great thing is there are many talented tattooists in Melbourne. I think you will be really disappointed with a tattoo like you have posted (suggestions), with the exception of the hands it takes up a lot of space without much ink. You will be wanting to add and hence cover up very quickly. My tattooist will be moving down to the Carrum…[Read more]

Can you imagine the bad publicity Club sues fan over a tattoo of the team logo – not chance.

I know (not close) a guy with a similar problem. However he is now covered in ink, well chest, back arms and a little on his legs. The big cause of his piercing problems is the aggravation of the jewellery, he was told not to think about a tattoo, so he followed the medical advice as he says, he didn’t get a tattoo he got lots. It could be…[Read more]

The assumption is that this been prescribed by your Doctor. Unless your doctor has instructed you that you can stop taking it when you feel like it, you will need to consult your doctor.
As to the pain there are many on this site, that their chest has been their first tattoo and I’m pretty certain they have not been on pain killers. Aspirin…[Read more]
