Outlaw, you take a hard stance against beginners like me, but damn, you do some beautiful work. Just checked out your album. Good stuff Bud.

I like the black waveish artistry in the crest. would be easy to turn into a black and grey sleave. You could go for a nautical theme with black and grey waves with maybe a koi. Because of the lack of color, you have losts of possibilities with that arm. as you can see, im partial to black and grey lol. good luck.

it looks good to me. ive never really used to much on any of mine. a very light coat of A & D and always let it breath. thats the only downside of getting tattoos, letting them breath. Like the one poster said, you need to make a complete lifestyle change for a week or so. Sleep in weird positions so your tattoos dont rub, wear short sleeves in the winter, get A & D on your clothes. its worth it though in the end. Everyone heals differently though. ive never had one scap up on me, and ive been tattooed over 100 times. Looks like its healing OK to me though. Make sure you keep putting lotion on it though, even after its done pealing.
