It’s actually looking pretty freakin sweet, Bert. Stop being such a freaking pussy.

Welcome Marty. Or more accurately, glad you finally decided to take the plunge and sign in! Looking forward to seeing your ink.

Welcome, man.

So you want to get a really original tattoo using an idea you already have. Hmmm. Well, I’m not sure, but if you look REALLY hard, you might be able to find a shop within a few hours drive where there is an artist whom is willing to create a completely original piece of artwork for you and apply it to your skin in exchange for…[Read more]

It would seem to be a little biased if they said no, Buttwheat, considering that they appear to have shared a couple ounces before posting this Incense and Peppermints Utopian fantasy. Let me know how this works out for you, Dr. Feelgood.

Welcome.
I like cheesecake.

Well, I think your portfolio is pretty impressive, Candice. I would let you lay ink on me anytime. Welcome and thanks for posting!

That is because Clint Eastwood is a bad ass mofo and I’m sure he just stared at the guy until he broke down and cried.

LOL! I can just picture that!

A little trivia on Clint (one of my fav actors, too) On his first audition he was told that he talked too slow and his Adam’s apple stuck out too far! A lesson to all of you out there who have been criticized. Don’t let it stop you from pursuing your dreams!

Her work is incredible, But I am SO not impressed with the Hetfield tat. Hardly recognizable.

Hell yeah bro! My favorite is the movie where he plays the pothead loser, then goes on some dumbass adventure with his loser friends. And then, at the end, he ends up with some girl WAY out of his league.

No need to be a dick, maniac. I’m not talking about the freakin storyline, just about the fact that he is so natural…[Read more]

Yeah, Seth Rogen is a great actor. I wouldn’t get it myself, but this girl’s work is the SHIT! Who cares if the subject is one you disagree with, the artwork is incredible! Thanks, bro.

Meh. Add color, don’t add color, that’s still some pretty sweet ink you got there, dude. Welcome.

Um, wow, well, I hope you artist has big plans for this, because right now it’s very boring. I’m not judging, though. I’ll be interested to see how this progresses. I know from my personal experience as an artist that a work in progress is usually far different from the finished product. Welcome to the forum and good luck!

Ok, couple things about this piece. First, I don’t know what the artist is intending, but those teeth need some shading. They look VERY two-dimensional as is. Secondly, the septum has pretty much the same issue. Too definite a line between the cavity and the surface. Lastly, the angle of your pics suck, lol. Nobody is going to be standing at butt…[Read more]

It sucks that aftercare is such a clustered mess, but unfortunately, everyone’s skin is different, and different things work for different people. Follow the instructions given to you, if it doesn’t work out well, there is a great sticky about aftercare in this area of the forum. I have to agree with Arni, of course, color running down the skin is…[Read more]

Looking nice!

Hey, David. Not sure where you are located, but if you are in the states PBS has a great show called Gary Spetz’s Painting Wild Places. It’s on Fridays here, but not sure if that’s nationwide. The man is a watercolor genius, though, and I record the program religiously. Just a heads up. (btw, if I recall, I think your from England, got a terrible…[Read more]

Thanks. You got some really nice effects with those two medium.
