holy crap this is one of the best back pieces I’ve ever seen. I love the idea behind it as well. Good words to live by. I’m excited to see how it all turns out in the end.

i agree with what most have said. it does look very well done and it’s unique so you get tons of props for that. my only suggestion is maybe add some shading to it in the future to make it stand out more. either way kudos and congrats on a great first tattoo

I have a low tolerance for pain so when I got my first tattoo I pretty much had my headphones on the entire time so I could focus on something else and squeezed my friend’s hand through the rest of it. Honestly, it hurt like hell when I was getting it done but even still, I think going through the pain is kinda a good thing. It’s something to be proud of in the end and you kinda feel like a badass when you can show people your awesome tattoo and when they ask if it hurt, you can say “hell yes but I’m just that badass I can take it…”

I went back to work the next day. I work at Best Buy so it’s not like I have to do a whole lot but one of the guys in merchandising (where they move product and heavy boxes all day long) said depending on how much work or stretching you may do, put on lotion throughout the day and it will help. As long as you take good care of it it should be fine.

right now I’m leaning a little more towards black and gray. I’ve always loved black and gray, it just looks very classy to me.

I’ve been looking into both artists for a few months now but I saw the plague sleeve a few days ago and that’s what got me to join the forum because now I’m starting to lean more towards Chaboya. I’m going to send e-mails out to both artists and talk to them about my idea, cost and about how long their wait list is. I know Miller’s would be seriously long and seriously expensive as well as a pain to drive out to so cal while Chaboya is so close. Thanks for the suggestions though.

I’m in San Francisco, Ca. I’ve been looking into two artists in particular. Both Corey Miller at Six Feet Under in Southern California and Nick Chaboya at Seventh Son Tattoo here in SF. Both I think are amazing artists and would do an amazing job. Cost isn’t an issue for me and no I’m not considering Corey Miller just because he’s been on La Ink or to get on tv. I just enjoy his work. Nick Chaboya is much closer though and I’d be able to get it done cheaper because of less of a commute as well as being able to go in ahead of time to talk to him about my idea and get feedback.
I’m actually glad you mentioned how much will be going into a small space because I forgot to mention it in my original post. That is also a concern. I’ve debated making them two separate tattoos or going larger but I don’t want it to take up my whole back. Here are some examples of placement and about as large as I would like to go:

and if not on my shoulder blade than maybe here:

Keep in mind I have a tattoo already:
