Gregor Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Its when the artist starts going over the same bits over and over again it gets really annoying for me. I have done 6 hours I find that short sessions heal better than long sessions . I get that 4 hour "wall" where getting raked by a big shader becomes pure brutal, and you start getting those pains from being in the same position for too long Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/332-whats-your-longest-tattoo-session/?page=3#findComment-23782 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaliaCamille Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Set a new personal best last session. 4 and a half hours, and I could've kept going (stopped because I ran out of money). Lidocaine is a hell of a drug.

slayer9019 Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 That took 6 hours? Duffa and Gregor 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/332-whats-your-longest-tattoo-session/?page=3#findComment-23900 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patriot Ink Tattoo Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 There was a lot of very fine detail around it and within it. I'd 90% of the shading was single needle. And the rest was with a 7 oval. This was done in 2003, while I was apprentecing. I'm guessing I was being "learned" and that's what took so long. :) Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/332-whats-your-longest-tattoo-session/?page=3#findComment-23903 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headphoned Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 My longest was about five hours on my chest. That was six years ago, so who knows if I could sit that long now. I'd like to think I could though! Had just over three hours on the back of my leg a couple of weeks ago and took it pretty well. But legs are easy. What's this Bactine stuff that was mentioned a couple of pages back?
