I like it as it is – love the shading. In my opinion, adding the Aussie coastline would make it a bit too obvious – its cool to sit and think about a little, I reckon….

Hi – I’m also in NZ.

I like your tattoos – my favourite though is your Nightmare Before Christmas one. Its one of my favourite movies – you just can’t beat Tim Burton, in my humble opinion!

I love the design – and its got a real NZ feel to it too. Can’t wait to see it finished! 🙂

Beautiful colours – and great shading. I love it!

If you’re already having second thoughts about it – then don’t do it. In my opinion you’ve got to be 100% happy with your design before you make it permanent.

Wow good luck. I know nothing specifically about working as a tattooist – but as with any work I would advise getting to work on time and giving it 100% effort. Oh and being able to make a great cup of coffee….always helps!:)

I love the shading on the flames.

Sounds yum – I love cheese and garlic – but I think I may also add Marmite under the cheese as an ‘extra’….got to love some daily MSG.

Cool! GOOD LUCK….can’t wait to see your pics.

I had both nipples done – and it was more painful than my tongue piercing. It was a ‘sharper’ type pain sensation for me, but not as ‘sharp’ as getting my clit pierced.
The first nipple piercing is ok – but then the problem is that you know what is coming for the second one, so you kind of anticipate the pain already – I think that makes it…[Read more]

Gorgeous – I love that style of work.

From Monty Python and the Hoy Grail….

I love your rib piece and I love that it is black/white too. Gorgeous!

Ewwww Dave – that makes me squirm!

I had my eyes lasered a few years ago and that was bad enough – but at least ‘I can see clearly now’….

And I love my eyeballs.

Buying unusual gemstones is my vice (not the usual sparkly/bling ones though) – I always have to have just “one more”. I justify this vice/habit by making one-of-a-kind jewelry out of them and selling them!

I just bought this Sonoran Sunrise Jasper gemstone (very rare) and set it in silver with Salwag seed beeds and red coral…..

Yes – its not really about the physical piercing, its a question about parent issues.

When you have a daughter you will understand more :D….

Gosh tricky one – I still have all of that to come (my daughter is only 3 years old).
I got piercings when I was still at school because my parents were very strict and I just wanted to push the boundaries. I think that if they had been more liberal, I wouldn’t have bothered.

I think you need to discuss in an adult and friendly manner with your…[Read more]

My tongue piercing didn’t hurt – the piercer was fantastic.
The healing was a little sore but not anything too bad. It kind of feels like having a filling done at the dentist….

would love to see your pics?

I LOVE the stars on your arm!
