hogg Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Norway needs a me, @Iwar! I totally approve of this elbow spider. Nice fat one, at that.

hogg Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 @hogg Iwar's even secretly squatting in his basement -Viking style. Trying to create more space for tattoos on those legs--he's running out of room!

Scott R Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 @hogg love that grillo skull peeking out the rose. Who did the rose? grillo? I am thinking so but curiosity still has me asking Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23497 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwar Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 @hogglove that grillo skull peeking out the rose. Who did the rose? grillo? I am thinking so but curiosity still has me asking I believe the skull and rose is one and same design, not two different tattoos. And for the record, I ain´t squatting no dirty old basement, that´s just creepy. @hogg ´s nice and cozy bedroom closet is a different story. Too far? Anyways, back on topic. I like a little bit of bare space between tattoos, and I´m personally not a big fan of the ol´stars and dots. Or, I like them, just not something I would want to fill the gaps. I´ve played with the thought of maybe adding some smoke-like shading in between the tattoos on my right arm eventually, but that might be a really dumb idea since I have yet to see something like that (which I assume there is a reason for) kylegrey, hogg and Duffa 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23498 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The person who did it was a shitty tattooer so that was a large part of the problem. gougetheeyes 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23500 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Worst feeling: watching the tattoo and getting that sinking feeling in your stomach. That really is the worst. I've had a couple where after the first line i was like oh shit this is gonna end up awful. In retrospect I shoulda stopped right there. Now that I've got these shit tattoos I realize it would have been better to have one random line on my arm/leg/whatever than one fully done awful tattoo that can't really be fixed or covered. Luckily I was able to fix one of these, the others I will just have to deal with. I've gotten to a weird point where I'm really scared to get tattooed by anyone, because I've even had some amazing artists make stupid mistakes (like for example i want a red rose, i end up with a yellow one. this isn't real but it has happened to me with a different design). I haven't been tattooed in a long time and am planning to wait and only get tattooed by people I really trust from now on. Anyways totally off topic, sorry. Dars and stots forever. gougetheeyes and Duffa 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23501 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGblues Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 @Iwar. My right forearm is black and grey or black with some red tattoos. I went with the soft kinda smoke thing and since I've got the four aces tattoo I had inverse hearts, spades, diamonds and clubs mixed in. These are shabby self-shot pics, but you kinda get the idea. mtlsam 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23506 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrubarb Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 In my mission to secretly become the norwegian eqivalent of @hogg I´ve decided to rip off all his tattoo ideas, shave my head and grow a beard. My beard-growing abilities aren´t up to par yet, despite me turning 30 in three weeks, but I managed to steal one of his filler idea´s the other day. Worst thing is I even ripped off the placement, haha! i can copy hogg too, but i have you beat. i moved to the sf and got a spider by grillo in the same spot.:) i can squat and deadlift a hell of a lot more than him though... kylegrey, mtlsam, scott and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23511 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott R Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 @MGblues- I like your arms but I would like to get more pieces personally before I shaded either way stars/dots vs shade its FILL for me Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23514 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGblues Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 @Scott R - Totally understandable on more pieces, but where most most guys have guns, I ended up with the cleaning rods. I went with the big pieces where the designs I wanted fit, then added the filler. There's still room on that arm for little tattoos. It's a work in progress.

Gregor Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Is there an origin or significance to the stars/dots thing , or is it just tradition ? mtlsam and Ursula 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1557-to-fill-or-not-to-fill-the-space-between/?page=2#findComment-23524 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursula Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 @Hrubarb hahaha yeah, he is a pretty tough lookin' dude. One of the rad perks of being with him, no one messes with me in public, no one approaches me to ask about my tattoos, and no douchey dudes try to talk to me at the bar/store/wherever.

gougetheeyes Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Gotta say, when dars and stots are done right it makes a world of difference! Be it from empty space or a portion of your arm you got fucked up by someone who, at least at the time, didn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.. or had never even seen stars and dots filler.. So @Perez helped me out by doing some little filler yesterday and trying to get the half of my arm that was starred and dotted and looked like shit back on track. Here are two really terrible photos but I am so pumped that my arm basically looks the way I always thought it should! Can't believe I waited this long to get this done.. Thanks buddy!!
