It’s either or. If you know what artist is going to be their that you want work from your best bet is to give him/her a call and see if they need someone for the day. I find that when I go quiet a bit of artist are their looking for random people to work on unless they are entering a piece into one of the many contests then they usually have…[Read more]

I’ve done my knuckles and My shop asked me a slew of questions: what tattoo’s do I have now, Locations, Do I have a career, how long have I been their etc etc. Something worth thinking over I wanted them when I was 16 and waited til now(21) to go ahead and do it. This was after talking to the company I work for and okaying it with the owners and…[Read more]

Samurai and a possible geisha would be pretty cool and no that’s not weird to feel that way at all 😀

People need to stop criticizing and answer her question if your just going to come in and say the same thing others are saying whats the point in commenting. None of you know her and your not going to influence the final decision she makes. If you want to talk about tattoos you hate go start another thread and rant until your brain explodes.

Seeing as I have both my arms done I found both areas to be slightly on the more painful side then in the middle of the forearm. I found that when I had the outline done at the beginning of my session wasn’t terrible but when he came back to color a few hours later I was tender and it was a little more painful. Everyones pain threshold is…[Read more]

Welcome to the Forum

I’m sure you’ll enjoy it here, there are a lot of people with all kinds of knowledge on the subject.

To hard to tell I’ve seen shops range from $125 – $300 an hour and I’ve also seen shops that are $400 minimum I mean depending on what your paying your for sure looking at more then $1000 unless you go to an amateur. When it comes to price the best thing you can do is shop around.

Try to stay away from the crap shops you want a nice big piece…[Read more]

Why don’t you take some time to talk to people their instead of asking people who aren’t from Florida that would be the best route to take. The only shop I know is Ocala Tattoos but there portfolios don’t seem to have what you described as what you like.

Unless your socially awkward talk to others you see that are inked.

Maybe you shouldn’t be tattooing if you don’t know about the healing process and what socks and shoes would do to the tattoo. Like Butterfly said until it heals.

Just have a talk with some Pro artists and they should easily be able to blend that into a sleeve. Your choices on what you want get limited when working around something or getting a cover-up, they shouldn’t be too limited though.

Where about’s do you live?

i am going through the same experience as you Ross. i am currently in my career and they don’t care if I have my hands done or not. I look up hand tattoos every night the only thing is I have zero support from family and friends(heavily tattooed themselves). Ill eventually dive in and get them done soon enough.

Cheers

Wow, I can tell that is going to be one amazing piece of art.
Kudos to the artist

Cheers
Marcus

I personally think that’s a sick piece of Ink.
I really like it

Gnarly is right though so don’t be so hard on him. It depends on the shop. From what I’ve noticed an average for good shops is between $125 – $250 and hour with a $60 – $80 minimum. Now with that said I’ve also seen some really amazing shops that are a $400 minimum(trying to discourage small tattoos)

The best thing you can do is to consult a…[Read more]

How big do you want the font to be? depending on your answer that might be to much to fit onto a forearm I guess depending on the size of your arms.

As a filler I seem to always suggest this, and that would be clouds.

Cheers
Marcus

Hi

Well as far as filler go with something that relates to the theme say for heaven and hell clouds and flames.

I’m surprised this many people could care less about their teeth 😮 I mean there are so many alternatives to showers and there is no alternative that would last for brushing your teeth.
