guyhayton Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 I've been lurking for a while, so apologies in advance for not introducing myself earlier. Got my first tattoo (on my right shoulder) six years ago when my Dad died and I was approaching 40 years old - so I am a relative latecomer! The intervening years have been "interesting" as I got separated and had to buy a new house etc. etc. I now have a partner who has and loves tattoos, so this year the decision was to expand my collection. In September this year I got my left upper arm done with a single large pinup, and in two weeks I am back to have a slightly smaller tattoo added to my right upper arm. Both are/will in the traditional style as this is the style I most identify with personally. However, I admire most other styles on others - well if they are well executed of course! I have also discovered that all future Xmas presents are now sorted... I paid for my girlfriend to have a tattoo a couple of weeks ago (traditional style butterfly) and she was made up. However, I do fear I won't get away to just pointing at her arm on December the 25th <smile> Anyway, thought I'd say hello....

guyhayton Posted November 8, 2015 Author Share Posted November 8, 2015 Here is my left arm... Done by Richie Clarke, Forever True, Liverpool - September 2015 Because it's on my right shoulder blade a bit difficult to take an uptodate photo, so here is one that I took after it was done six years ago. Size wise I would say it was about four inches in diameter. Done by Richie Clarke in 2009 The Tig 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6663-saying-hello-from-liverpool-uk/#findComment-121398 Share on other sites More sharing options...
guyhayton Posted November 18, 2015 Author Share Posted November 18, 2015 New addition to the upper part of my right arm - very fresh, so my skin is still quite pink in the photo. by Richie Clarke, Liverpool UK The Tig 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6663-saying-hello-from-liverpool-uk/#findComment-121639 Share on other sites More sharing options...
