Thank you very much for the compliment! I was, in all honesty, expecting to get something of a hard time about the tribal, with it being a bit out of favour – so I’m quite pleased with the feedback so far. I do tend to think that sometimes the person moulds the feel of the tattoo, not necessarily the other way around. If you see what I mean!

Thank you cruciaL 🙂

As I mentioned, given my time again I wouldn’t opt for it. I did tend to rush into things a bit, and have had to make the most of a rushed decision! The work on my forearm is somewhat stronger – the sugar skulls piece, flames and checkered flags on the inside, so I’m not too worried. A t-shirt covers the majority of the tribal anyhow (its fairly big :o).

I do quite like the idea of adding another element to sleeve things off. I’m guessing it may take more attention away from the tribal too.
