Just need to decide where to put it! I'm thinking lower arm...hmm :)


DreX - Love the sleeve dude, looks fantastic :cool:

Some very nice artwork in here!

Tres sexy, this is my kinda tattoo :D
 
I don't drink ;) i'm tea total i'm afraid. Occupational hazard with an alcoholic father.

Actually it's because of a huge lifestyle change from being a chef to working in an office. I put on 5 stone since the move 2 years ago, up from an unhealthy 8 stone to an unhealthy 13.5, although with the training ive been doing at the gym and a decent diet i'm slowly reducing that to a more sensible 12 stone. Currently at 12st 9lb so not too terrible for 5'8.

In the pic, i'm 8.5 ;)

Ah right ok....fat git (joke) good luck with the working out :D
Same thing happened to me kinda.

Got this done last week at the Carlilse tattoo convention, photo was taken when i got home, bit shiney with cream but will look better when its healed.

Pretty cool. You dont need to put on too much cream on the tattoo though. Too much cream can have the same effect as not putting any cream on at all (aka a bad tattoo).
 
Some lovley Tattoos in here

Does anybody agree that there addictive

I want a Tattoo to do with PC/Gaming but don't want my mate to laugh at me :P

Very much so. Reading the thread has made me want another (even though I said to myself no more)

Its looking good now after week, she looks like she is growing a beard now though as my arm hair is growing back.

Lol, not the best look to have when showing people a tattoo. I have the same problem xD
 
I am trying to keep the thread alive and on topic. I think its doing well so far 6 or 7 pages now. Still waiting on my mate showing me some ideas for my guitar tattoo :)
 
looks like I'm getting closer to joining in... got an idea what I want and it looks like some mates are taking a trip (hi Olly :) why not post instead of just reading? ;)) soon so I might tag along :D

Bit nervous tbh!

Yeah, its the fear of the unknown that makes people nervous. If you not a fan of pain get a basic tattoo to begin with. A design with few intricate lines and more filling in.
Lines = single needle. Filling in = multiple needles.
The single one is the one that is sore, the multiple needles is more like a tickle :)
 
Seems since Miami Ink started, every tattoo MUST have a reason and a background story... that knots and crosses is ace!

I was just interested to hear if he had actually had a reason other than "It's cool" because hearing why people decided to get the design is interesting :P
I dont watch Miami Ink.

I'm ok with pain to be honest.. not great with violence but pain is fine :)

I'm going to get some text up the inside of my arm, probably latin :)

Cool, if the writing is thin it will be mostly single needle.
 
Im thinking of getting my first tattoo.

Its from a design ive liked for about 5 years now!

I'm just not sure if its abit too big for a first timer!


It is quite big. But if you get a good artist they will put you at ease. If it is too much for you to take at the time you can easily ask them to finish that part up and get the rest done later.
 
Oooh, something like 15 hours i think. Such an intricate piece, the collar bone was the most painful part!

I can imagine lol well worth the pain though, eh?

Did you have it on the underneath of your arm, up to your arm pit? Becuase if the collar bone hurts more than that im NEVER having one on my collar bone :p

Nothing for the needle to push up again thats why it hurts, skin = sore.
Then again putting it on to a place with very little skin is sore too (aka collar bone and shoulder bone!)
