Hmmm completed – not overly keen with the questions though as rather negative wording. 😡

Hope the course goes well and next year aim towards doing a neutral questionaire – if you asked me that one in the street I’d have walked off after a couple of questions.

To sum it up

I’m educated, not suicidal, happy with myself, life and attitude. I…[Read more]

After much searching and realising way too many tattooists in my area have a crap attitude – or could it be down to a lack of talent as I tried contacting most and either no reply, would look at it so I travelled and not there too busy. Emails sent to places as requested with dimensions pictures ideas etc etc basically drew it out myself and…[Read more]

Hi Jin and welcome – not too far away in Swindon – which studio you working from Abingdon or Kidlington?

Some superb work there – might have to pop in and see you soon (as I am getting pissed about by mine 🙁 )

I will be looking to add to the cross on my lower arm – is that something you could design something around. I’m quite open to artistic interpretation as long as its nothing offensive or dark – so no devils or demons.

I’m not religious though I have a cross I actually like the cross rather than it being symbolic!

You might want to edit a couple of piccys in number 11 as I can make out the numbers!

But some interesting work there – I like work with meanings

I had the same issues initially and having zero patience didn’t help – but just came down to practicing even holding the bcr by the ear and doing it (wouldn’t rip it out if I threw a strop) Now have no issues on any part of my body

Oh yeah hint – I locate 1 dimple and rotate to snap the other into place – works for me

The gecko is personal and more fitting in my opinion – not so sure about the tail bit good idea but wouldn’t look right in the tattoo and having to explain it anytime anyone asked. Crosses aren’t anything these days unless he was religious and meaningful.

Why not do the gecko with fine line angel wings or a halo as a bit different but won’t over…[Read more]

Sorry for pointing out the obvious and possibly preventing you looking a tit with mis-spelt/ wrongly worded tattoo :rolleyes:

A election of words/ phrases I have but not all the words you do – be careful with the translations though as they can have more than 1 way of spelling it i.e love! But I would always try to get it checked before anyway :p

Forum ettiquite is on the main page. An introduction is only the proper thing to do before asking for favors.

I know that hence my introduction after being on here for 18 months lol But as a possible 1st forum virgin who doesn’t know thier way about is where I was referring to. One of my old forums we had an…[Read more]

Bit harsh I feel BIB as not everyone knows forum ettiquite and can push people away with that attitude! :rolleyes:

In regards to your question frankiedux – you haven’t said what style, size etc etc personally I’d start looking at something on google searches or the gallery to get ideas

On the other hand, there’s alot of ink out there on people who don’t get it. For many it’s become a statement of fashionable rebellion, no different than buying a Thundercat purse or a hoodie with a skull on it. Sorority girls go into shops and pick flash off the walls, or get quarter sized roses on their ankles. Idiots…[Read more]

Never too late……just fashionably late :p

Cheers chief will look at that as never thought of that – but was also playing today at going from bright colour on the vermin side to grey on the other then would tie in with the right black sleeve

At least I know what style I want and should be possible but now just need to finalise what the hell its going to be :confused:

Only 1 problem….my Mind is a bit on the “warped” side. lol

Fair do’s on the being clean and just keep it that way 🙂

Whats to say yours isn’t normal and the others are warped – c’mon many of those across the pond don’t appreciate good sarcasm 😀 Plus from a ‘warped’ mind you get a better artistic value…[Read more]

whats on your arm and do you want the style to carry on ?

This is my sleeve in progress

I’m quite open that they can all flow together or not as the case maybe – as long as those stupid vermin are gone lol
