Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
Excellent! The ribs are a good place to start because they definitely give you a good idea of the pain level of tats. After getting that done you'll have no probs getting them in other places
Good job my friend. |

Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
I found a guy at the local Tinderbox who does excellent portrait work. I wanna see some of his other stuff first but I think I'm going to have him do it for me.

Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
OK, so it's just me then?
I'll be the voice of reason. I got a tat when I was 17, 1972. I was stoned...not just then, but all the time. My buddy and I went to the shop. He got a zig-zag man, I got a mj flower top. I have regretted it for about 30 years. First, lifestyle changes. The values you have now, when expressed permanently and visually, may be vastly different than 5, 10 or 20 years down the road. Second, after about 10 years they look like sh*t. after 20 years they look like mostly grey and black blobs. Yeah, I know you can get 'em touched up...blah, blah, blah. Third, when you start advancing in your career, and the vast majority of people do, they are not and advertisement for "stability" or "good decision maker". Furthermore, they do not give you the look that screams "hire me" unless you're trying to get a job as a bouncer or a roadie. They look, well...stooooopid. Go ahead, let the flogging begin, it's just my personal opinion and advice. |

Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
Yeah its just you then
1st lifestyle changes, get something that means something to you when you get it. I look at tattoos as sign-posts for where I've been in my life and what's been important to me, that way no matter what I get I have no regrets as it meant something to me at that point in my life. 2nd, my wife has tattoos more than 20 years old and they look just fine. Go to a good reputable artist who uses quality ink and don't go drunk or stoned. 3rd, I wear a shirt and tie to work and have full sleeves. Whenever I'm not at work I go with short sleeves all the time but in the business professional world there's aboslutely no reason that you can't have tattoos. So I definitely respect your reasoning for you regretting your tats but I will respectfully disagree with all of your points. I don't believe tattoos look stupid at all. I think that if you get quality tattoos it will look just that... high quality. Get tattoos that are high quality by a professional artist, don't go stoned or drunk, make a logical informed decision and have it be something with meaning and you'll never regret your tattoos. |

Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
I love portrait work!
I definitely agree, and its good to keep in mind that the quality of tattoo ink has changed drastically since 30 years ago. While Back in the day the quality of the ink was sketchy and looks bad after a bit, current tattoo ink is exceptional quality and looks very fresh and vibrant even after many years. I have to say that in my experience KuroSumi and Starbrite inks are the best and brightest with SkinCandy running a close third. |

Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
You know a lot more than I do.... I am glad the "desire " to drill an inch down wit the needle has gone away. Deeper does not equate to better or lasting longer. For a simple art, it has changed a lot.

Re: Anyone have any Tattoos
I love my little blue BMW motorcycle:
649cc's of 40bhp Powah! No more strapless/sleeveless cocktail party dresses, depending on the party, but no big deal. I like it, a LOT, and it's the only one in the whirled! |
