marley mission

cool cool tatt

i'm headed this way next - i wish i was in better shape though i drink six packs instead of wearing one but meh - i want a rib shot i have plenty of weird ass ideas to discuss with my artist

hmmm...i think this whole thread is a joke flowergirl - who are you really - pulling our leg well - if you are 'real' - just get some more tatts already and enjoy the ride

i think you are misunderstanding the feedback here - there isnt anything that can be done with that tattoo so folks are just being real with you also - people are correct in saying that you will need to get over it and you will i also believe that if you get into getting tattoos and get more tattoos - your perspective will totally change you will be able to appreciate the imperfection of it all which in turn lets you appreciate the specialness of it all little story - i got my first tattoo about 5 or 6 years ago a small cartoon tattoo - plankton from spongebob hey hey don't judge ;) anyway - it got infected - i lost skin it got scarred and became of scarred blur of color this was on my calf - my only tattoo for all the world to see so i said to myself - ok - tattoos are obviously not for me i get a tattoo and look what happens my friends affectionately referred to said tattoo as my tattastrophe it was embarrassing but i dont mind laughing at myself so whatevs well a year goes by and i felt like i still wanted to get tattooed so i find a guy to do a cover of this scarred mess with a bob marley tattoo he tells me ok but says with how bad the scarring is the cover might come out 'so-so' and it did come out 'so-so' - you can still see the 'ghost' of plankton but hey - it was better than it was imo - so i'm living with it so what happens next to this bermuda triangle on my calf - i get attacked by a pitbull long story - need a diff thread so now i have - on my calf - a bob marley covering a scarred plankton with missing ink from said dog bites check my gallery - there is a pic :) so what did i do - i kept getting tattooed - and i love it i dont worry about imperfections or if something doesnt heal right - i got some of those too i got weird tatts, funny tatts i love getting tattoos - i like how it feels - i like the way a tattoo shop smells and sounds so long story over - i hope you stay with it get more tatts and just wait and see - this might end up being your favorite one day not cause its perfect - but because it was the start of a journey

blowout is same thing as ink migration but like others say - dont sweat it the solution you ask...more tattoos!

definitely a fan of whatever floats your boat and i think the subject matter you want to commemorate is very cool but... i think the right tattoo artist will be able to help you develop a better articulation of the subject (i.e. - something cooler ;) ) good luck and welcome

remember you'll probably be benefitting from the extra days off you wouldnt have normally given yourself

i think i like tattoo nightmares better than inkmaster this season - the 'reenactments' are classic

i like the tattoo - as for the technical aspects maybe the artists on lst would have better feedback but as for the 'soul' of the piece...i think its cool

very nice topic - loved the reads so far - i want to organize my thoughts on this topic but dont think i'm there yet it made me realize i'm not completely sure why i started and keep getting tattooed but i'm sure enjoying the ride anyway - carry on...

i actually dig the lion

got a little crazy with da crayolas...

echoing whats been said - totally dig that lion
