The Show Off Your Tattoo Thread

[Sash]

Still waiting to get mine finish. I have plenty of credit on my credit card, but they accept cash only. I don't particularly want to draw money from the credit card so thinking how I could actually get it finished.

I've joined the gym to try and lose a bit of body fat so I can get my chest and arm done!

Finally got the next part of my tattoo done, picture to follow

I assume he's finding amusement in the design of the quoted image as a tattoo.

Definitely something to laugh about!

Haven't posted in this thread before despite having a number of tats. Only got this one on pb. Majority of mine are in relation to my family.

Got this when my daughter was born

Nice, original design?

 

[Sash]

Some newer ones. Globe/Plane/Train by Valerie Vargas. Tiger head by Frank Carter. Both at Frith Street Tattoo, London.

Really like the colours of these tattoos :)

 

[Sash]

Really like that design. Was it a custom job or did you get it from somewhere?

 

[Sash]

Still in development, shading still to be finished and then the background pattern, i have the wing extending onto my back as well.

Shading started last Friday, so it's a bit red. Currently using Bepanthen on it which the tattooist recommended, nearly used it as toothpaste this morning...

Very nice, I do like me some Dragons!

Bepanthen is the way to go, epic stuff the tattoo I posted earlier healed within 4 days!

 

[Sash]

Booked in 3hrs next month, they reckon it's gonna take 8-10hrs to finish (see rubbish phone pic below) so it's not gonna be cheap, but should be awfully nice like when done

Looking very nice, remember and post an update once its coloured in.

Recently got an artist friend to paint me up a new tattoo for after I get my samoan finished.

You can check out her art at https://www.facebook.com/KrimsonArtworks?fref=ts

 

[Sash]

Looks good mate! Gives me an idea on what the one above I posted will look like once stencilled!

 

[Sash]

My samoan tattoo is currently 8 hours in the making, then another 4 hours to do my arm, which I still need to book in.

 

[Sash]

Merry Christmas All!
Booked another 4 hours for January and then I can work on planning my next 2 tattoos. Some really nice artwork here!

One of my new additions

Which game/anime is the bottom one from?

 

[Sash]

Sword Art Online, it's a 25 part series about MMOs... It's my favorite I've ever watched, loved every second of it.

Next session is a 7 hour one and will get that colored and finished

Believe I've heard of this before. Cool!
I'm booked in on the 13th to finish mine, then I need to plan my next two!

 

[Sash]

Nice dude, any clue on what you're getting next?

Logo from the Witcher (game - wolf), my bro and I both getting the same one on chest, and also getting a custom phoenix on either back or side.

 

[Sash]

With such a piece like that I'd only get it from an artist with a proven record and also with a few personal recommendations from friends. For a full sleeve I wouldn't want to take a risk of getting a bad artist.

 

[Sash]

Exactly what I was thinking, but sadly either my friends have no tattoos or the ones they have are crap & I'd avoid who did them like the plague .

Anybody know of a good one local to Hampshire or even London area from personal experience?.

You could check out things like the store's/artists' facebook pages or galleries look for tattoos they might already done in the same style.

 

[Sash]

Finally got my tattoo done

 

[Sash]

Nice ink Sash, I'm considering doing my other arm in a similar style. How many hours?

Thanks!
Arm was done in 3, chest and back were 4 hours each

 

[Sash]

Very nice! How long did that take?
