Just kidding, those are very nice! How much is left to be done on the second one?

Thanks guys! The second one is less than half done and has been completely neglected since 2007.

Are you sure you're posting the image correctly? It has to be hosted somewhere else online, and you have to put the url in [ img] the center [/img ] without the spaces.

The dragon was done about a year ago. It took something like 8 hours in 3 different sessions. I have A pretty nice tiger design on the other arm, but no pictures. I couldn't get that pic to work, so I just posted the link.

8 hours in three different sessions is a good idea. For my pigeon and city scape tattoo I sat for 8hrs at once because the shop offered a deal of "$600 for a whole day". This "session" is largely the reason why nothing has been touched since 2007 (the photo doesn't show it, but the tattoo goes around my entire arm, including almost my entire armpit! The skin was left crumpled and mutilated from trauma for 2 weeks under there,)

I did 4 hours straight with the tiger on my other arm and it was getting pretty brutal. With that much color you end up going over the same skin or very close to it repeatedly. The tattoo artist said it is actually good to have time to heal in between.

My body rejected all the color ink and I was violently ill all night at work. It sucked so hard.

The tattoo artist said it is actually good to have time to heal in between. I was actually suggested the very same, but I was like, "Fuck it, give me the deal!"

I am debating about tattoos. If I were to get one I'd know what I want, but I don't really want one, I dunno why.
