Oiocha

Nice and folky, western look. If you want to do anything to it add around it but not to it, just my opinion though. We aren't your parents.

I just got a summer job and its down the road from Inksmith & Rogers. I might be in a financial crisis by getting a job.

Kerley is so tight. lucky you!

Dragons look funny without their scales, sick work though.

Don't plan much more than that if you trust the artist.

name of artist?

Met Horitomo, I had a list of things I thought I might want and I ended up with only kind of getting something on that list. Definitely a MonMonCat, definitely going to be my favorite tattoo, definitely a Nekomata with Kitsune inside. I had this stupid kid in a candy store smile on my face the whole time I was watching the sketch form. Then I had to take a picture with my undies at my ankles, I didn't smile as much at that, or when I had to hand over my deposit. I will be back on the west coast in ~3 months and I'm so excited.

Dan by the wood out of new york, look at the top NY shops and I'm sure you will have a hard time picking out of the gigantic list of heavy hitters

Evan Olin's stuff looks tight, if you like him maybe you should just go with that.

Horitomo had at the time I booked him an 18 month wait time for consultation.

T minus 7 days to my consult with Horitomo. Counting the days is getting me through my midterms.

Lets not steer this down this path again, let the sleeping dog lie. We can pleasantly interact and talk to people about not condoning their actions. Anyways, I had heard of Honkey Kong but he isn't my speed as far as style, I like window shopping with his instagram but i would never get one.

So I need the low down. Where do I need to go in San Diego? I'm flying out at the end of April and I don't have to pay for the trip so, money in my pocket and an itch that needs scratching.

I wonder how thats going to look settled in, be sure to show us

Red rose will always and forever be classic

Rest, Relax, Elevation. Don't overthink it.

Wait, you just hand blasted yourself.

Give us images to help us with what you are describing.

I kind of want a scalp tattoo later in life. Just for the sake of using all the real estate hidden or otherwise.

politely requesting better angle of that picture because its a cattoo

Anyone want to just go ahead and make tattoo of the month's theme for March: Scott Sylvia? I only have a Panther/Snake combo but everyone else has solid posts to start.

awesome

Me and the lady on the phone both said "March" when she asked when I wanted my appointment and I said I would need a little time so I could get my schedule for college, so we went with it. I only have so much figured out so far: Back piece, something Horitomo is excited to do with MonMon Cats, something Horitomo hasn't gotten to do at all or wants to do on a large scale but hasn't yet. I'm going in loaded with a notepad of ideas and references from my university library but I want to decide together. I have these very basic ideas so far, Fuujin/Raijin, Momotaro/Peach, Nekomata with Obake/Yurei inside. I'm still doing homework on it slowly but I ultimately want his wisdom on the subject especially since I don't understand the back as a canvas very well.

I booked my flight and my stay in San Jose, I have the consultation date, I have the deposit; I'm coming for you Horitomo. March better get here fast so I can get this process started! I will probably say something similar after the consultation when I set my appointment to start.

Cover up with a red flower on that tattoo is going to be a big mess of black in the middle and then red on the outside. Laser the tattoo and just start over if you think its that bad. instead of having two messes on top of each other.
