hey thanks all for the advice.
I may consider a different spot I really want it in February in honor of my dads passing. As for my surgery I have been waiting 2 yrs already and have had no luck finding a surgeon so may not ever get the surgery. If I did it wont be for a while and it will be a 1 inch incision next time.
Anyway thanks again for all the feedback this site is great for newbies like me who don’t have a clue about tattoos and the process involved.
Thanks
Tats
