I would post some of a certain mod's mixes here but that would be for him to share, not me.

you're worrying too much.

Hoggy convinced me to come here and post. I dont remember what I read first.

thats a bummer man good luck with this.

One day when you have a sleeve or two and 30 other tattoos you'll be able to say 'this was my first'

I'm sure that at some point somewhere that has really happened.

awesome.

off to see OM tonight. Should be excellent.

Brutal Knitting by Tracy Widdess

Any art collector that hasn't considered buying some of his work is failing.

I don't that's always a pre-requisite to have both arms finished before having 'permission' to do other spots. I did the entire back of my head when I was heavily tattooed already but in as far as visible tattoos I had a left arm sleeve and nothing on my right arm at all. The people that tattooed me even back then were friends that knew my commitment level and didnt try to talk me out of it. As far as pain level goes, I mentally prepared myself for the worst tattoo I've ever had and that made it easier to deal with when it turned out not to be. IMO my side/ribs were worse, armpit was worse, ass-cheek was worse.

Please tell me he's getting 'live laugh love'

We're just a bunch of big sissies. Go for it.

20+ years later this is still what I say about every tattoo I get haha

5 hours on a ribcage for 1st tattoo? Not something I would usually say is a great idea, but hey go for it. My experience with tattooing people there for their first time is that they have an absolutely miserable 1st experience(esp for something as big as that). There are exceptions from time to time, but we are talking a ratio of 50:1 at best. Everyone says "well I can do it, it can't be THAT bad". And to a certain degree, that's right. You can do anything you put your mind to. It's just that they have no relative scale to judge it by, so they have no idea what to expect. Ray, on a 1 to 10 scale a upperarm or calf or even thigh its a 1, 2 or 3 vs a ribcage which is no less than a 9. My advice is a different place that is easier to endure (like side the places mentioned) for a design like that anyway(if it is a lady head if I read this correctly. just wanted to say that everyone here posting about your somewhat mild rib tattoos must be super tough guys. hats off to you for your spirit.

@missStark has the best feel-good story of the day!

I saw that same link but the table is so low that I'd be breaking my back in order to be able to draw. Good idea though. Fun project from what it looks like.

In retrospect I should have bought a raptor claw at the museum and put the ring on it.

thanks man it feels pretty awesome

Took my girl to the museum of natural history to look at dinosaur bones and meteorites and other cool shit, ran around fao schwarz like little kids, and proposed to her on a mountaintop on the blue ridge trail.

Cory Ferguson's name is getting skipped over here, and he def has been doing this for quite a little while without biting anything from Jondix/Hooper/etc. Just wanted to give some credit where it is due.

yikes. i didnt even know what you really meant at first.

why the hell was this thread resurrected? Surely you guys ( Jason & Yomoney)didnt think this was worth re-hashing. Probably because his attitude was absolute shit. So bad in fact that I was betting on this guy being a troll. How could anybody looking for a position in a tattoo shop (or any job for that matter) be that stupid?
