It looks great. How long did it take?

Nice and bold.
I love that cupcake!

I feel like the darker lines on the second picture of the bird might just end up looking sloppy.

If you are willing to go with full sleeves you could probably cover that up with close to anything, it’s pretty small.

Hey guys, what do you think of a tribal design for the extension and background of my cross? :confused:

I think you’re better off with the demon than the tribal.
There really are so many things you can do with it. I like KnightHawks idea so far.

Don’t stress. 🙂

Are you using a thin layer of moisturizer when you apply it?

It’s likely there just isn’t much there to peel. I remember you saying it was a simple, line tattoo. When I had my outline it just barely flaked off in some places. I barely noticed any peeling at all. I imagine this is the case with your tattoo.

I love the color; it looks good.

Awesome looking ink, very well done. Already see your interested in getting something else, what do you have in mind for your next one?

Thanks. I still have some details to work out, but I’m going to get a nightingale and some roses. I think I’m going to get it on my thigh/hip.

Really awesome. Definitely one of the best biomechs I’ve seen.

You can worry about pulling ink out when it stops peeling, I believe. This usually takes about four weeks for me.

Itchiness is normal. You can lightly slap at the skin, and this should relieve some. Soreness isn’t abnormal, but if it persists or gets worse I would see a doctor about it.

Can’t answer your other questions for you, but I’m sure…[Read more]

Sherav you have to pick a new member of the week!

And I think starting a new thread like everyone suggested is a good idea.

Whoa.

I thought it was Coney Island from the thumbnails, and got super excited. But it’s still awesome. And huge.
Go you for going so big for your first one.

I can’t wait to see more work on it.

I love the cars as well!

Great work.

Welcome to the forum.
I’m sorry to hear about your grandmother.

I’m a little bit confused about your idea, maybe you could clarify for me, you’re getting a Star of David with corners that are twisted – similar to the fashion of a Celtic knot, OR you’re getting a Star of David with entire Celtic knots in the corners?

I like the first idea, it…[Read more]

Thanks ArniVidar. 😀

Its not that I’m ashamed, I’m just not trying to be sexy. You are quite right though, it is just the human form.

It all seems pretty solid. Though some of the portraits are just good, not great, or incredible or amazing.

This is the path to acquire that which you seek:

1. Consider your immediate area, and the tattoo artists in it.

..A. Research said artists

..B. Evaluate their work

2. Consider artists outside your immediate area

For the record: I was hesitant to post pictures because it’s kind of a sensitive area. It’s difficult to photograph the tattoo and cover up at the same time. Perhaps someone more endowed with computer skills that I could crop or photoshop for me, for the sake of modesty..

Thanks everyone. 😀 I appreciate all the kind words.

I’m so happy with it; I love it. I just can’t stop looking at it.
It’s looking better already, now that it’s not as swollen.

I’ll definitely be going back to Mike for my next one. He was really awesome throughout the entire process.
