Some cool tattoos guys, i'm toying with the idea of having a tattoo done at somepoint. Problem is i can't find anything thats catching my eye at the min, i'm after something thats a bit different to all the tribal, oriental style tattoos that everyone seems to have now. Gonna try and find a few sites see if there are any designs i can use to give me ideas, but i'm not going to rush in and have one done until i find something that i'm 100% on.

my tattoos are in a "New Skool" style, very graffiti, surreal looking, extremely bright and deep colours. dont just rush in mate have a really good think about it.

how long ya going on holiday for seek?

A month. Gonna be doing some camping/hitchiking and travelling around.

Here's one I love (sorry for poor quality pic)

Obviously that's a girls one (Shoko Tendo) but I still think it's awesome.

Mohinder I've seen you post your tatts fairly often but I've always wanted to see how they all look together when you're just stood up. Can you satisfy my curiosity?

Noooo, I'm too fat!

you'd not get an entire sleeve in a month, unless you can sit stupid amounts of pain back to back. which i doubt you could.

Dean3d · 27 May 2008 at 22:17

thanks, and yea it's getting turned into a sleeve soon, just deciding with my artist whats going to work.

erm no she didnt.

the guy above me hit it on the head even if she did get tattooed in a week, its quite rare to get that amount of coverage in one week.

I doubt that, even two weeks. Even in two weeks, all she would have been doing is getting tattooed, eating, and sleeping. A sleeve fitted into a month's holiday is highly unlikely to be doable, even if you booked way in advance. If you were thinking you can just wander into a studio and get a full sleeve done, you're dreaming.

I was thinking of allowing a week for the single sleeve.

SGWills · 27 May 2008 at 22:27

not many studios will allow big tats to be done without booking in advance. going to be quite a big push i would imagen to get it all done imo

it aint gonna happen mate, to get tattooed one day, then the next, then the next would be excruciating pain, seriously, its such a slow process tattooing takes absolutely ages fella.

Have a few tats but this is the most recent one; done a couple of months ago.

It's an Eelus artwork:

You sound like a pansy "oh no, the pain!"

Tbh, the only issue is money. Assuming I have enough cash I'll get it done in a week, or a touch over at the most.

I'll be sure to keep a blog (typed up with my other arm of course).

Cosmic182 · 27 May 2008 at 22:30

your skin would be far far too tender to get a whole sleeve in a week

i like your determination

i would be more concerned about booking it, if your travelling about, they might not be able to fit u in before you move on
