Tattoos

I have a bit of a skull obession.

I really like this

Jeff Gogue. http://www.gogueart.com/, sadly not in the UK.

One of the nicest tattoos I have ever seen. Everything is spot on, lines, shading, colours... I can't stop looking at it!

i'm just posting here to get the last post in the top three threads for my own amusement.

i'm very bored.

Wish it was mine Max, purple's my favourite colour and I LOVE skulls.

The butterfliess look a bit of place though IMO, love the detail on the skull though.

nice little piece, as featured @ http://www.swallowsndaggers.net/

gonna try and sneak in a little 13 tomorrow.... but already have an appointment at family business for something else tomorrow afternoon.
hopefully forever more can squeeze me in in the morning.

my ladyfriend wants a tatt and she's got a basic idea of what she wants, but doesn't know any graphic designers to do the final design work. Do any tattoo studios offer this service, as well as the needlework? I don't know anything about tattoos.

I've emailed them, Id call but I cant for obv reasons, hope I can get myself one on fri! :)

Didnt get a response, and I cant call.
Oh well, no 13th tattoo for me

Sounded like they had plenty of space when I called earlier, that was around lunchtime though...

Bleh, I wish I could call them

Get a friend to do it.

they said they're not taking appointments.... just doing walk-ins from 1:00. maybe go and give it a try?

Hmm, ill see, my puppy has his jabs from 4.30 :/ so

Not sure where I'd get mine. Anyone know what the deal is with size colour etc?

i'm going for left ankle.... either Sailor Jerry or Mike Giant style.
not sure about sizing, but i doubt they'll be doing anything too big for £13.

That's really nice! Rudy Fritsch is well worth checking out if you're into stuff like that.

My girlfriends just got booked in with Chad Koeplinger for her back so she's all kinds of stoked.

I just got this done on my calf today. The redness will go away.

can you put the image back up?

Pretty much every tattooist will be more than happy to draw something up for you. I'd tell your friend to look around at people work and find someone she likes who's work looks similar to the style she wants and take her ideas and talk to them about it. If you let the tattooist have some input the work will be better for it rather than just taking a picture to them and getting them to copy it.

Hope that doesn't sound too blunt but most tattooists are a talented bunch and don't need stuff drawn for them. If their work's great the more input they have the better the piece they'll do for your friend.

I'm probably gonna go right ankle/calf =cankle. Didn't know they had a Mike Giant style, was going to go for Sailor Jerry. What time you headin down, Rob?

oh shit..... are we gonna end up with matching cankle tattoo's?... i'm not sure if they'll do Mike Giant/Latino style... but i hope so!

was gonna head down early, as i have an appointment at The Family Business to finish my sleeve at 3:00.... i'm aiming to be there when they open..... he wasnt sure about walk in's til after 1:00 though.

When I called up the woman who answered just did me an appointment for 1.30. Mine will look better, of course.

Here is a new image. Previously I explained what the writing means but I won't go through that again as Pistonator ignored it anyway.

Could anyone tell me if the shading is red or grey? I'm colourblind.

He said all redness should go away and just leave a very feint grey shadow, but I am very worried the shading will stay dark like that. I would have preferred just the bike and the words without the shading.
