First Tattoo

Cool, I feel the same way about mine. Enjoy!
Oh, and the stinging is kinda addicting .

 

yeah i don't know if tattoos are really for me...i'm already addicted to piercings but tattoos are a hell of a lot more permanent. but softball was my life for 12 years, so it would actually mean something if it had to do with softball...eh we will see

 

Well, you could at least put it somewhere that could be covered up if need be. I'm sure you'll make the right decision.

 

I figure i just dont work and i have no money so i wont have enought money to pay for school, car and another tat

 

yeah i know what you mean about taking your time, i decided to do a baseball tat cause it will always be a part of me, i think everyone on the JC team had a baseball tat when i played haha i just wasnt 18 yet

 

exactly how i thought. except i was 18 lol

 

haha nice nice, Jake has a pretty cool one from what i can remember, isnt it like a tribal one or something?

 

My tattoos are a living History of my life and what i have done. Along with some of my favorite things.

 

well everybdoy im off. wish me luck

 

Post a pic when it is done.

I had a tribal "tramp stamp" I got when I was young and stupid and pressured into getting a tat, I just had it covered a few months ago. Now the entire lower half of my back is covered with a scene that will extend to cover most if not all of my back when I get around to adding to it. I took a couple pics of the idea I had and the artist made his own version of it, I liked his work. I went to 3 sessions each about 2 hours long over 3 months, each time I told him my ideas and let him do his 'art'. I love the end result and I'm excited to add to it. It is a fairy sitting on rocks surrounded by water with a frog on a lilly pad at her feet, I'm going to add the rest of the 'sky' with sun/clouds/moon/stars or something like that. I can't get to the most recent pic right now, this is the 2nd session which was coloring the fairy and shading the rocks which are actually a cover up.

 

Ill try to remember when i get off work to post a pic of my Half sleeve.. The entire Tattoo was done by the artist.. All I did was pitch Ideas for each section, show him my "VERY" Rough scetch.. and tell him do your thing.

 

well i got it and i love it. it almost feels like it is one of those fake ones when i look at it. when im awake, and sober, ill post some pics of it. haha

 

Congrats! Oh and the most important thing is to follow the after-care instructions so it doesn't fade or get infected.

 

took about 7 hours total over a weekend including free drawing it on my back first. Mike Fatutoa at Sacred Center Tattoo in Vegas.

 

Betty on my back took 3 1/2 hours

 

Wow... That looks really good! It helps that the artist had a good looking canvas to start off with.

 

Nice tat!! Sacred Center...haven't heard of them, but the works looks good. 7 hours looks about right too, now how much did it cost? Just looked them up and see that they specialize in polynesian style which explains the detail of your piece.

Thanks..wish I had access to an updated pic, looks much better with the bottom half completed.

 

Here is mine, 3 hours in the chair....

 

Here is mine. sorry it took so long.

 

turned out awesome!!!!!
