Hi guys and gals. Thanks for all the great comments. I have about 32-35 hours into it so far. Just had session 8 tonight. Here’s the most recent pic.
Still alot to go. I’m guess it’s gonna take about 3 more sessions. We’ve decided to go with all black and grey and it’s turning out well. I live in Japan although I’m not from Japan origionally. The tattoo arist turned me onto a product that they have here that’s used for hemmoroids. I was kinda apprehensive because I’ve always heard that Prep H is not good for tattoos but he assured me this was different. It’s also contains a topical numbing agent that made tonights 4 1/2 hr session a breeze. I feel like I could go 2 more hours no problem. Just thought it was interesting.
Nice Tat! You’re def gonna be addicted. What’s next?
Here’s from last night right after the 7th session. I’m strating to get excited because I can start to see the finished product. hahaha. Hope you guys like. I think the next session is gonna be shading on the butt. I’m dreading it, anticipating that I won’t be able to sit for days.
Looks great! Good that it has meaning to you too. How’s the wrist for pain?
hahaha first attempt? That’s pretty amazing. Looks good for something coming out of an established tattoo shop but on the first try? remarkable. I’m diggin the layout and the concept too. If she’s that good I bet that you’re gonna be covered in ink in no time. Good luck.
It’s been 10 days or so and the old skin’s starting to feel like new. I have another appointment this coming Sat. Can’t wait to get another session done.
It has been a little expensive but certainly worth it. I never dreamed it would be 10 sessions though. I imagined it would be more like 7 or 8. I’ll post pics after the next session.
Wow. You drew that? You’ve got serious talent. Where on your body would you put that? Have you asked any artists about turning it into a tattoo?
haha wicked. I wanna steal that tat. Congratulations on the fine work. The legs make it look spooky!
Here’s 5 days after the 6th session. It’s starting to peel pretty good. Hope that he can finish in only 3 more. Thanks for all the great comments guys. The last session was pretty rough. It came pretty close to the 5th session and my skin was starting to feel pretty beat up. It was the first time that I actually blead. I have a good 10 day break before more ink though. Thanks for the replies.
Here’s what I’ve had done on the 4th and 5th sittings. The shading is alot more painful then the line work. The pearl is near the right shoulder. I like the idea of adding some green. Any other ideas?
Not alot of pain. I’ve heard that the ribs are more painful. Haven’t gotten to the shading yet so maybe that will be rough. Here’s what I got done on the the third sitting. Demure, what did you have in mind for an accent color? Anyone have any ideas for the pearl? Maybe a design in it?
thanks guys. I have another session on the 17th. I’m hoping to go twice in Sep and twice in Oct. Can’t wait for it to be finished. When I had originally asked the artist to draw something for me I told him to start at the shoulder and end at my belt. You can see that he didn’t listen. hah. He’s got great ideas though so I’m letting him run with it.
