Oh and these also have a special meaning to me (before anyone starts and gets shot down ;):p)

ewww they cant have hurt too much there not so big? just a bit of a sting? also im going eww at feet :[ not a fan of feet hehe
 
I'm the type of person that get bored with things quite quickly.

I like henna tatoos because they eventually fade. I wouldn't get a proper tatoo because they last forever and I may one day not like the tatoo any more.
 
Nice tattoo dude, keep meaning to get my left arm done but can't find a style I like and don't want something there for the sake of it :(

They hurt a lot more than my whole back put together, no matter how small they are.

i just woke up to find have of my tattoo had scabbed and came off, i knew it was getting scabby but! one swallow is now healed...looks pretty sweet too.

its a bit extreme but its your arm
 
UPDATE:

went into the parlour yesterday and ill be booked in again in about 2 weeks. another full day session of 7 hours, getting the skulls finished and underneath my arm done were basically gonna just keep tattooing it.
 
Just booked in for a full day session next saturday :D

under the arm, and colouring to be started.
 
Not being harsh dude, but at the moment that looks really tacky. Hopefully it will come together once you've had more done to it.

Is there any meaning to this design?

Tacky as in, as it currently stands it looks very cheap. It looks like the artwork of a bored 13 year old.

I'm really not having a bash; different strokes after all.

Personally, for me to eventually get off my backside and get a tattoo, the artwork, especially if it was as dominating as yours would almost certainly have to own some significance.

The colouring will probably make all the difference.

a bored 13 year old, everybody whos asked to see it in the parlour thinks its amazing work, maybe the pics dont do it justice. as mentioned new skool is cartoony.

Let's wait and see what it's like after your next session mate.

as mentioned its personal preference, the tattoo artist is very good at what she does, its not to everyones tastes.

You don't have to explain yourself to me, it's your tattoo, not mine. If you're happy why it, that's all that matters.
 
Looks like one of the girls out of Soul Calibur (or some fighting game I've seen) to me, but hey whatever floats your boat.

How many hours work til it's finished?
 
well just got back sat nearly a full 6 hours+

of colouring and a complete new piece under my arm, i wont post pics just yet as im bloodied up but it does look really really good such a big improvement if it wasnt good before!

my first piece has both swallows done, one purple and blues, and one reds and oranges!, and under my arm a Poison bottle which reads "XXX" across the label, and its been completey coloured in, so as you can guess im in a lot of pain!
