Tattoos

Hey folks...

Right, I've got a question for you for which I can expect to be flamed mercilessly... Planning to get a fairly big piece on my left side ribcage, hopefully by Lionel from Out of Step and it's going to be my first piece... Thing is I've been off the bike for about a year and though I've just gotten it sorted I'm quite a bit... flabby... I don't want to book something and get it done if it's going to look fucked once I get streamlined and sexy again... Will it make a difference?

I have the same problem, put on almost 3 stone (!) since last year... Want more work doing, but yeah, IMO it does make a difference. I would say if you can, lose the weight then get tattooed. That's what I'm going to do. if you cut down the tattoo will eseentially shrink, and may end up looking out of proportion, lines not straight etc,.

Also, it's a great incentive to get training.
