New member going for 1st tattoo

[carefree1905]

Hi fellas just joined the community.

I'm a big Chelsea supporter and am looking to get a tattoo of the old style badge on my calf (pics attached). I am of Indian origin so I was wondering how to decide whether to get the tattoo in colour (blue) or not and was looking for advice in this regard. Also, still deciding on whether I want it on the front of the calf or the side so if anyone has any tattoos on either please feel free to post them!

cheers

Ugh, Chelsea.... anyway. others on this board can talk to skin tone and color vs black. I'd get either side or back of calf.

Cheers, and go Gunners!

haha nice one mate. I think i've got it mixed up- there is no front of the calf that's the shin?

depends a lot on your expectations, and how dark your skin really is . . .

Cheers Dan- will the colour blue come out okay on the skin?

LOL yes ! blue on your skin tone will look great,should look fine,

but it will also depend on the ink that is used and the style of the tattooer.

remember colors stay looking better kept out of the sun and use of good sunblock.

you should try to chill and relax,it's a good idea for pre-tattoo mindset
