1 session, 6 hours it's an awesome tattoo indeed, even better than I expected. And even the ones who doesnt like tattoos, have to admit that it looks in my case better than before. And the main thing is that I like it, and I absolutly do :)

finished, before: http://s1.directupload.net/images/130523/ihg3gsoj.jpg after: http://s1.directupload.net/images/130523/n8hyhstm.jpg

so, I had my appointment today and I have to admit that the tattoo studio was impressive. 5 floors, a lot of employees, very nice environment it really really looks good. so firstly I met a guy who does the "first meetings" for discussing. I explained him that I want to cover my mark with some tribal-like black'n'grey. After watching at some pictures he understood what kind of tattoo I like and we went to the specific artist who does the style I like (he's a guest artist from england named "Rod Medina"). He told me that he's able to cover the mark with a black'n'grey tattoo of his style. I will have another appointment in May for defining the exact tattoo and for inking. I'm very excited :)

thanks for the answers guys :) I'm from Switzerland and not from Germany :) What's that? I have an appointment next week here: Tattoo - Giahi - EN thanks for the tips Graeme I'll take a look at them

The problem is that I don't like any kind of specific motifs like animals, heads, or any particular objects. I really prefer pattern or random symbols. Also I'd prefer using black than other colours. (But i think that finally to cover my mark i need colours anyway). Yep I heard of that thing but I'd prefer to cover the whole mark

switzerland ;)

thanks for the answer :) You're right I really did a lot of research. For me it's a really important case and I don't care how much time and money it costs ;) here is a picture of the mark and the scars picture Actually I don't like the usual tribal tattoos I see on the internet because I don't like the hard contrast between darkblack and skin colour. But I really like the shape of these tattoos especially if its kind of black'n'grey with shadows (2 pictures in my first post). That's why I think that it should be possible to hide the scars with a black'n'grey tribal. But for the mark I have no idea. It should be 1 big tattoo covering scars AND mark ---> so I need something that covers the mark and a transition to the tribal that's covering the scars ( It's kind of difficult to explain but I hope you understand me :D )

Hey guys, I need some help/inspiration for my first tattoo :) Please excuse my poor english my native language is german ;) I've planned to get my first Tattoo. The reason why I want a Tattoo is a bit different compared with other people I guess. I'm actually not the kind of person who's getting tattoos even I really like them (not all sort of tattoos ofc). The reason why I want to get a Tattoo is to cover a ugly-looking but harmless spot/mark (5*10cm) on my chest and some small scars. Some people might tell me now that this is a wrong motivation for getting a tattoo and I do agree with them partly but not completly. I had been thinking about this for 2 years and I came to the decision that I prefer getting a goodlooking tattoo instead of having a terrible-looking chest. So the decision that I want this tattoo is 100% considered and definitly I've already chosen the place where I'd like to get my tattoo: www.giahi.ch/tattoo-239.html But before I go there I want to prepare myself (having an idea what I want) and I hope that you can help me www.bilder-upload.eu/upload/f7fe48-1361474964.jpg This is a picture of the chest. The black part is the part where I'd like to have the tattoo (not exact, just roughly ofcourse). The Red area is the mark/spot. The blue points are the scars. I've been looking through thousands tattoo websites for 2 weeks and I came to the decision that I like most the Tribal ones, especially the black and grey tribals (I dont know If you can name them this way). For example: www.bilder-upload.eu/upload/596021-1361475206.jpg or www.bilder-upload.eu/upload/c76080-1361475392.jpg In my case, the most important thing is that my mark and my scars get covered. I think with a Tattoo as showed in the last 2 pictures it would be easy to cover small scars. The problem is, that it won't cover the big mark/spot. I assume that for the mark/spot I need dark and strong colour. So my idea is actually that the Tattoo should be kind of splitted in 2 parts (with a transition ofcourse). The upper part should be something as showed in the pictures and the bottom part should be the same style but covering the mark/spot (maybe a tribal with a background? I have no idea ). Actually I'd like to use only black colour but I assume that this won't work to cover my mark. Do you have any idea for me to master this? I'm a really not creative person and I'd really like to get some inputs from creative people :)

I own a pistol SIG P220 and a rifle SIG 550 but I haven't used them in a longtime.

:D

Some of my friends told me that chest tattoos are one of the most painful ones. Anyone can confirm this ?

These regulations seem stupid for me. Fortunately in switzerlands army there are no rules regarding tattoos :)

How the hell can such a bad artist be a tattooer -.-

Beside the fact that it is a stupid idea, it doesn't even look like Miley Cyrus :D

hm doesn't really look like a thread where I can post questions. The 10 Post limit to post a thread is a little bit annoying :) Due to the fact that I'm new to Tattoos there is no conversation I can take part to raise my postcount. And I don't want to post 10 senseless posts in the offtopic section ;) In my opinion the forum should have pinned "general-questions" threads for newbies (I can't find one) I'm looking for ideas for a Tribal/blackngrey Tattoo ( in other words: Tribal with Shadows) placed on my chest to cover a mark/spot. But as long as I can't create a thread, it's impossible for me to ask :)

Hey everyone. I found this forum on google and it looks interesting. I'm from switzerland and about to get my first tattoo. I joined this forum because I hope to find some ideas for a design/motive for my first tattoo. Is there a thread where I can ask for motive-suggestions? :)
