  1. I got my first tattoo yesterday. Sat from 11:00 to 3:00 (he drew it on freehand first) and we just did the outline. It's the first part of a Japanese themed sleeve. It's a Koi with a dragon head. I go back for color and the outline for the next piece the first of April. Unfortunately my artist is booked about 6-8 weeks in advance. I guess it just gives my old skin more time to heal between sittings.
  2. Did they give a shout out for the guy who's tattoo idea Al Fuction stole?
  3. +1 I was laughing when Heather kept saying she does killer tattoos - note to loser, when you're REALLY good, you don't have to tell anyone.
  4. If what he is doing isn't illegal, it should be.
  5. I did a little research and it looks like about 17% of Americans have tattoos, although the number for under 30 is significantly higher. My question - does a sleeve count as one tattoo!!! :-)
  6. How would you like to be the poor slob sporting someone else's tattoo? He's probably on the phone to his lawyer the minute he sees this.
  7. The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has it's limits - Mark Twain
  8. So much for land of the free and home of the brave. Now the government wets itself like a scared little girl over a couple of tweets.
  9. Is there any benefit to shaving the area you are going to have tattooed a few days ahead?
  10. Interesting thread. So if you exercise in your home you should be OK?
  11. Most reality shows are crap. Why should tattoo themed reality shows be any different.
  12. Sometimes a confederate flag is just a flag. Far more racist things have been done under the Union flag, but no one bitches about that. The slaughter of Native Americans for one. Just the opinion of some guy on the internet.
  13. I've done a lot of research on artists. I was referred to him by friends and had my wife, who is an artist, look at his work. I've visited the shop a couple of times and watched him work and had a chance to see a massive back piece in progress and one forearm finished. I'm looking at getting a Japanese themed sleeve with Koi, Dragon, Samurai mask.
  14. I've decide to finally get my first tattoo at 50 something! I've been thinking about it since I was 18 and realized that I'm not getting any younger. At least this way I don't need to worry about what it will look like when I'm old :) I'm in the Winchester, VA area. I haven't decided on an artist yet, but will post in the main forum looking for recommendations.
