shading for sure on bigger pieces but on smaller, one sitting, pieces both are no problem. Unless rids and that is just a whole nother story, hahahaha

Sounds good, look forward to seeing more pictures….

I would say fill them in with designs like have you ever seen the band Bouncing Souls designs? they tend to take “simple” images like butterflies and stars and add scenes wihtin them…..

Maybe add some japanese style waves as they kind of just sit there and standout too much right now….if that makes sense??

Cool, maybe look at some traditional japanese chest plates on full body suits for ideas. I think those are pretty cool…..

hahaha. Oliver should of had a show over her plus many others! If you are being entertained by this thread as I am here’s some more laughs about cable invasion

Toomanynotenough its in my albums, but don’t wry I’ll post better pics when I have my next session this tuesday. Thanks alot for yalls comments

Thanks. Look forward to seeing a closer picture. Is it going to have no color? Who’s doing it?

Did you say sleeve or ribs? Either one both will fit. If ribs maybe one on each side. Have you chose the lettering? I think the images are cool but may be too much for this tattoo. Do you have a shop or tattooer in mind? Maybe take them the lyrics and have them decide the “add on”? Here’s a conversation on tattoo lettering. Is this your first…[Read more]

thanks for coming back with a link to see more!

Do you want a traditional chest piece or more of a peck piece? I’ve said it before and will say it again the less color if any is best unless doing a traditional tattoo, jus tmy opinion. Maybe do a heart or some doves with the banner or a panther. For some reason only traditional style is running my brain right now……… Have you decided on a…[Read more]

look forward to seeing what gets done next…….

Hi

I am making these comments as constructive criticism not as a t-bag on your ink work.

The 3 main issues that struck me looking at your ink is as follows;

1. As mentioned the spacing is not great some of the pieces seem to be a little too bunched up and some towards the middle and bottom are a bit wide of the mark when…[Read more]

If you’re thinking pirate themed then you could also do a ship in a storm with lightening?

Some take longer to heal than others and if the tattooer spent too much time trying to get a color in that maybe your skin doesn’t take well rather than move on and come back it can take longer….plus many other variables. How long does your body normally take to heal from a good cut or scrape?

Nice! Who’s doing/did it? Why color over black and grey? Thanks for sharing!

Sanskrit is a tough translation as are most languages as the uniqueness to each culture is lost once moved to another. Plus we’ve all heard horror stories with doing tattoos in other languages the tattooed doesn’t speak. With that in mind Sanskrit does look really good! Where are you located? Is there a local college professor or temple you may be…[Read more]

That is a whole lot of stuff to put in one tattoo and actually pretty different styles to bring into one cohesive piece. Maybe choose traditional or japanese or spiritual or ??? then go from there. I would one hundred percent second the goto the tattooer with your idea and let them work their magic and trust their opinion(s). Are there some…[Read more]

Which design? Do you have a picture of the tattoo? I tend not to be a fan of getting tattoo designs off of sites as I am yet to see a good one as it losses the tattooer who’s doing it’s style but am open to seeing one. I think part of the experience is walking into a shop with an idea and letting the tattooer you choose add to it….just my…[Read more]

Hi

My serious piece of advice is do not mess with ink that is fine unless you want to add to it with more good ink.
The wrist piece is fine and I would not go through the pain and risk of scarring for a removal.

The cover-up would mean something very large dark and would simply run a chance of leaving you with a poor tattoo…[Read more]
