Thats what I was expecting. How much time on average would a full chest peice usually take and is it possible to do in 1 session?

Thank you I’m going to need it. Does anyone know how much he charges per hour?

Just Emailed Larry Brogan about a convention hes doing up in Green Bay, WI so hopefully he’ll be able to take me up there and then i have an extra month to save some cash flow

buttwheat knows his shit.
What do you think about these artists…[Read more]

Damn! I’m going to New York like a month after that. And right now I just dont have the cash. It’ll probably be late July. I’m thinking Tim Beidron in Chicago? This will be my first tattoo other then some home done shit in high school so I dont know any good artists. I need something in the Midwest though

If you have any hesitation dont do it and re think it over. you will regret it is what i think reefdiver is saying

haha nautical stars and acrylic tapers. I’d like to go to Heather Mclean but shes not accepting new projects. I could possibly go to Chicago at the farthest but Milwaukee or Madison are would be best if you have an suggestions. I think Laurents work is the best I’ve seen and I’d like to find someone thats $100 an hour or so. I just turned 18 and…[Read more]

Yeah I got real lazy and did the color in my sisters colored pencils when i usually work in watercolors. I didnt put much effort into it knowing the artist is going to change it and use this as just a concept. I got across the general idea and thats all i set out to do its not supposed to be a finished piece of art. I’m excited to see how it turns…[Read more]

Throw those acrylic tapers away. The weight distribution is horrible, tapers arent jewlery and shouldnt be used to stretch above about 4mm after that get bondage tape and do a wrap every few days until your at the next size. Wait a month at the very least, longer is better. Titanium, glass, stainless steel, and implant grade Teflon are the only…[Read more]

I’m giving the artist complete liberty and I want the cartoon apperence seeing as I’m going to make my living as an illustrator. I can draw realistic I can whip you a portrait up in 15 minutes but I want my tattoos to be something thats not real something ridiculous and something that tells a story

Well then what should I improve?

This is what I’m thinking for color. I got a little lazy with the blue. Opinions?

I think maybe getting 3 large neurons down your spine. Our inner strength is our knowledge. determination come from our brains and as a species our perseverence and ability to survive is dependent on our big brains. you could even simplify neruons into black lines

Ive heard a septum is one of the most painful peircings and mine didnt hurt a bit. I’d say a nostril would be no problem go for it pain wont matter if you want it

Im in Milwaukee and I don’t have a for sure artist yet. This is going to be my first real tattoo. I have a sky whale on my ankle that i hand poked but that doesnt count. I’m thinking Laurent Marin at Adambomb

yup this would be sheriff mojado king of the ocean

I agree with the sun I should have done only one but whats done is done Ill tell my artist how id like that adjusted. And I already have a different idea for my back and I would like this one to go from the bottom of my collarbones to below my sternum

haha the shadows were just a composition thing i dont really like how that worked out I wanted the trees shadows to come down in towards him so i think that will be changed to 1 shadow each. And I’m happy with it i just want to know how this would work more as a chest peice and if there is somthing that should be added or taken away adjustments to…[Read more]

its a blurry picture of a large painting so there is a lot you cant see. I got very lazy with the picture. I’m more of a child like illustrator and thats a look i was going for. I’m compleatly happy with it and i can draw I’m actually in a top art colleges in the country and was offered a substansial amount by alot of art schools. this wasnt going…[Read more]

tapers are fine for small sized up to about 6g or 4 mm but definently not jewlery to wear. tape is ideal as it stretches slowly over time instead of a bit 1mm jump for your ears to just do. tapers also help in blowouts as the push the fistula out the back as you stretch which is no good. taping over a few days or weeks is definently the easiest…[Read more]
