Photobucket is being shit. Will sort it out tomorrow

I really want more tattoos, I've got a few planned but no money at all. The shop my girlfriend is apprenticing at want me to do some photography work for them, might be able to get some tattoo time in the deal, one of the artists does some really great stick and poke dot work which would be cool, maybe some nice geometric stuff on my knees.

calf was my first - quite enjoyed the pain - might get one on the other

Yeah, outline was killer due to size of needle

Filling in wasn't too bad as bigger needles

Here are my finished roses:

Finally got photobucket to work.

This is straight after it was done so looking pretty red and angry. To be honest, I was hoping that she was going to make some of the ends of the branches a bit thinner, and that's what we'd agreed (and what it looked like on the transfer). Ah well, it's there now. Still chuffed with it!

(Apologies for the enormousness of the pic)

Looks good and has the bonus that, as you age, your varicose veins will be mistaken for part of the design.

Not bad. Post a better picture when it's healed a bit.

Like.

You can add thin branches to that later, no?

Yeah there's enough space between the bigger ones and further up your leg to work with.

A bit lame that the artist didnt stick to your desired design though, imho.

Jordan's doing such good Japanese stuff. Saw this pop up on Frith St.'s Twitter feed earlier.

Going to talk to jaclyn rehe at I <3 good times this week, love her style

I'm a total pussy but wouldn't take anything, bit of searing hot pain is character building

So much win it hurts. Want.

that's incredible

Not sure how well the more intricate parts will age and there's an iffy butterfly attacking Big Ben, but its an amazing piece.

Are there two women, or has she been decapitated?! or has boobs on her side?

Looks like something you get in a crappy souvenir shop / on the wall of a wetherspoons pub ^^^^

A friend wants to get a tattoo on their ribs. Outline of an eagle - no shading but a drawing rather than just a copied image.

My initial instinct is Liam Sparkes - because I like him.

Any other opinions, suggestions?
