Any Tattoo's?

Good for you! People shouldn't judge others for what they do with their bodies. My husband also thinks I'm crazy! My leg sleeve is now about one third finished. My dragon is just about complete and I just started my next major piece on the back of my thigh. It's the Japanese Fu Dog and extends from the top back of my knee almost to the bottom of my butt. The outline and shading took about 3 1/2 hours as well. The toughest thing I'm finding about getting a sleeve is the time taken. I've had about 17 hours work done so far. Also, the back of the leg doesn't hurt too much, it was the back of my knee that was excruciating!

Thanks! I am nervous about how long the color and shading will take! The arm isn't too painful until the needle hits near the arm pit! The chest hurts near the collar bone horribly!

You will have to post pics when it is done!

I found a nice boxer tattoo the other day. http://www.bmezine.com/tattoo/A60529/high/bmepb275717.jpg it was very nicely done and I think the little boxing gloves are cute

Thats pretty cool! I was thinking about getting Duke and Duchess' names with paw prints next to them somewhere eventually.

I have one tattoo accross my lower back. Its an all black tribal. It hurt like hell, but not on my back. It hurt in my legs!!! Weird I know! I guess it was bc it was on my spine and the shading was pretty intense. I went thru an entire package of RUNTS (candy) and ate about 6 Tootsie Roll suckers to keep me from going nuts in the chair. The only break I took was when he switched from the outlining needle to the shading needle. I sat in the chair for 2 1/2 hours before he was done! I want another one, but not really sure what to get.

My dad just got some AWESOME AWESOME continuation work done by an artist named Michelle Wortman. She added on to some old stuff that he has on his shoulders and the new work continues from the old stuff and goes down to his forearms. My dad lives in TX but he flew all the way to St Louis I believe to get the work done. He is supposed to go back in August and finish his sleeves down his arms. He sent me pics the other day and they are absolutely breath taking! He just turned 40 so I think its cool. If anyone is interested just go to google and look up MICHELLE WORTMAN, she does AWESOME work!
