how can complete strangers give your husband an idea of what to get? sounds like he should wait until he decides on what HE really wants instead of rushing into this.

red is very hard to cover up, especially if you want a color pin-up. my suggestion is to get some laser sessions to lighten up the red before getting a cover up.

Okay, there is no reason to be rude first of all. If you had read my post, I am not looking for anyone here to pick out the tattoo that he is going to get. Just IDEAS so that he can come up with his own design that can be taken to the artist and let the artist work his magic on it. As I previously mentioned all of this in all 3 of my posts as well.

He isn’t rushing into anything. This is several months off at least if not more than a year, we are just trying to get ideas. You are just assuming that he is rushing into it because I never mentioned a time.

He spoke with the artist who did my tattoo and he said it would be a very easy coverup no matter what he wanted to do. So, if he said it would be an easy cover up, than I believe him that it is going to be an easy cover up.

If you are going to comment on my posts, please have the courtesy to read the entire thing because I have fully explained everything in all 3 of my posts that I have made so far.

Yep, Gsouder is right. I’m a girl lol

But anyway, it would be better off to cancel it if you have to than to try and fight through it. It will be worse for both you & for the tattoo.

If you are still feeling bad tomorrow, I would just cancel the appointment tomorrow because if you wait til Thursday when you are supposed to be getting the work done and then try to cancel with your artist there is the possibility you’ll make him/her angry cause you waited so long to cancel. I don’t know about the studio you are going to, but my artist’s studio requires atleast 24 hours notice of a cancellation. 🙂

You’d be better off to reschedule. Your body cannot handle fighting a cold or whatever it is you have (sounds like a flu or infection) plus trying to heal after the trauma of a tattoo.

It sucks but it is going to be better for your tattoo and it will make the healing time go much better if you wait until you are not sick!

I hope you get better soon, being sick is no fun at all 🙁

Okay, so here is my rough idea of the pin-girl half sleeve…

It is just a pin-up girl in a swim suit on a beach at sunrise, obviously. Keep in mind though that this is a VERY ROUGH idea that would be presented to the artist & he would make necessary corrections and changes & pretty much turn it into a masterpiece. Now, that being said, I crop the photo into the shape of how it would fit onto the arm, with the very top rounded and kind of a flat/squared sort of bottom where it would be by the elbow. Unfortunately when it saved it, it cut off the rounded top. Just know that it conforms to the upper arm 😎 lmao

There are few major changes that I know for a fact he is going to change about the overall look of the tattoo. One being the girl’s hair, probably going to make her a brunette.

just wanted to see if there were any other ideas that he might go for & show off my creative little idea lol

I agree with you that it is quite sad that we are branded as being lesser than others because we choose to wear a piece of art that has significant meaning to our lives 🙂

I have just recently finished up my first and have yet to receive any negativity with mine at least not to my face, but mine is also houses a spiritual meaning so I don’t know if people see that as being different or something :confused: I’ve heard a couple of people grumble about it while out & about the first couple of days because I was wearing backless shirts to keep it from sticking to the tat.

But definitely think seriously about it 🙂

The reason I say it might not be as bad as you think because you notice, but someone else might not. I have a 2 year old son & I am on the fairly small side, as I wore an american size 5 in juniors through the end of my pregnancy after I actually started looking pregnant instead of fat lol I never did manage to fit into maternity clothes before I had my son. I never got big enough lol However, I have TERRIBLE stretch marks on my stomach and while I think they look terrible & ugly, not many other people notice them because they are quite light-colored.

So that is why I mention it may not be as bad as you are thinking. 😀

Oh, I forgot to mention, this was his very first tattoo so he was kind of in a rush to get a tattoo anyhow. But he has gotten 2 tats since this one & both of those are much better done by much better artists 🙂 lol

Anyway, thanks in advance for anyone who has ANY ideas!

I think your best bet would be to talk to the artist you want to tattoo you and find out if he/she will even tattoo over it or not.

However, I will state this, I highly recommend NOT getting it tattooed over. The reason because of the location it will be visible depending on the type of shirt you wear. I don’t know if you are a male or female.

However, if you get a tattoo right there on your neck you are going to get a very negative response from people, especially those without tattoos because they tend to have a misconception that anyone with tattoos (especially with tats on the neck, face, & hands) are either gang members or criminals. 🙁 Sad, but true.

Now it would really help if you could post up a picture of this so-called “ugly” scar, because you might be the only one who notices it because you KNOW it is there, but it may be that nobody else notices it the way you do! 🙂

Thanks! lol I am so ecstatic about it that I keep running over to my huge wall mirror & staring at it 😮 My boyfriend keeps laughing and making fun of me for being obsessed lol

The tribal is actually a single wolf-head just mirrored since they line up along my spine, my artist said in order for it to look even that it needed to be symmetrical on my spine.

I definitely plan to get more, it is just the matter of money lol

I want to have a piece on my back that incorporates all 9 of my native american spirit guides, (the other 8 will of course be in tribal style as well just to match them up to my wolves), as my wolves symbolizes my main N.A. spirit guide.

Of course I have others in mind that don’t go along with this particular tattoo/theme lol I have a toy/cartoonish train I want to get done for my son. My bestie & I wanna get matching ones with unique twists that suit our individuality, I want to get one for my future hubby who is a US Army soldier & is deploying next year for an entire year, and who knows what else 🙂

I am still working out the details on all of them so that I can take them to my artist and tell him what I want and then let him play around with them until he creates me another masterpiece like he did with this one 😀

157 views & nobody has ANYTHING to say?!?!? REALLY!? :confused::confused:

I managed to get a slightly better up close picture of it, with the digi camera.

You can see more of the colors in it than the phone camera showed.

I’m just super happy with it so I thought I’d share! 🙂

So when will this start to look good?

Hopefully, after it starts getting filled in. 8/

As of right now, you almost cannot see anything or tell what it is. I hope it starts coming together and starts looking really good once the color is added to it. 😮

Um, I believe that is your arm, not your hand. Just saying…

I like the bright colors in it and the fact that it looks like a well executed piece of art, but other than that I’m not a huge fan.

You might want to be sure that you really mean ANY comments welcome! 🙂

granted, but then you would realize that you are eating the best thing in the world and keep eating until you gain 500 pounds and when going to the beach people mistake you for a beached whale! 😮

I like the bottom one & the top ones the best because the bottom one looks like it would be a child’s toy.

I like the top one because it has lots of bold, clean lines and has a place where I would put his name (or initials) & his birthday.

See, if I did the bottom one I would have to do his name (or initials) across the top of it and his birthday across the bottom.

So, it’ll be a while before I get it done anyway cause I need to save up money to get it done lol 😀
